Massive Attack Plan Massive Attack
With Weather Underground

With a headline like that, I'm sure the National Security Agency will be doing wiretaps all over Spacelab (click here to see why), but with news like this, it's worth it. Massive Attack have announced some insights to their upcoming album release for Weather Underground.

Apparently the boys from Bristol have been jetsetting back and forth from the U.K. to New York to record new music while working with TV On The Radio. Neil Davidge has been doing knob twiddling for the recording sessions.

The album is expected to be released sometime around February 2007, so you'll have to wait a while. The band is said to have recorded over a hundred tracks for their last album, 100th Window, and the album was eventually paired down to nine tracks. If that history is a guide, the band has a lot of work to do.

But if you don't want to wait that long for some Massive Attack goods, you're in luck. The band will be releasing a two disc 'best of' set of goods in March called Collected. It will feature some of the bands best music to date, plus rare and reworked tracks, as reported by NME. There's even a DVD to go with it.
