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.

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