The song remains the same.

After the curate’s egg that was 100th Window, Massive Attack’s decision to present a soundtrack seems curious. The accompaniment to Luc Besson’s Danny The Dog – the story of a feral boy raised as a pugilist, out May 05 - is a handsome, engaging collection, but as an album it feels incomplete. That said, the familiar elements are in place: bombastic drums and menacing basslines interspersed with moments of stark beauty, the latter best exemplified by Sam – an electronic lullaby blossoming into gorgeous strings. An intriguing if inessential release.


James Cowdery 08 October 04 rating of 3 and 1/2
Massive Attack - Danny The Dog OST, released 11 October 04 on Virgin.
