Looking good! From pitchfork this morning...

Massive Attack wrote:
Almost seven years after their full studio album, 2003's 100th Window, trip-hop pioneers Massive Attack are ready to release more dubby darkness into the world. Their fifth full-length, Heligoland, is out February 9 via Virgin in the U.S. (February 8 in the UK). (Heligoland is "a small German archipelago in the North Sea," according to our friends at Wikipedia.)
The album features an enviable list of vocal contributors: Damon Albarn, TV on the Radio's Tunde Adebimpe, Elbow's Guy Garvey, Martina Topley-Bird, Hope Sandoval, and Horace Andy. Albarn also plays bass on the track "Flat of the Blade". The Adebimpe-featuring track "Pray for Rain" and the Andy-featuring "Splitting the Atom" were both featured on the recent Splitting the Atom EP.
The Bristol duo also tapped Portishead's Adrian Utley to play guitar on a track, and DFA's Tim Goldsworthy contributed here and there. As previously reported, a Heligoland remix album by none other than Burial is in the works as well.
Heligoland's ten tracks are listed in order below:
Heligoland:
01 Pray for Rain [ft.Tunde Adebimpe]
02 Babel [ft. Martina Topley-Bird]
03 Splitting The Atom [ft. Robert del Naja, Grant Marshall, and Horace Andy]
04 Girl I Love You [ft. Horace Andy]
05 Psyche [ft. Martina Topley-Bird]
06 Flat of the Blade [ft. Guy Garvey]
07 Paradise Circus [ft. Hope Sandoval]
08 Rush Minute [ft. Robert del Naja]
09 Saturday Come Slow [ft. Damon Albarn]
10 Atlas Air [ft. Robert del Naja]

Would be nice if they'd include a clip or two. It never seems real until we've heard it.
It's Dubstep, who cares?

This is gonna be amazing. Some very influential and forward thinking people involved, each with so much production skill & creativity going into one album. I'm very hyped on this.

Immensely looking forward to this. I'll get my old man to buy it on wax then 'borrow' it off him for a few years

"In the works" is not exactly unequivocal. Still, will be very happy if/when it happens.
