Hooks you in... - By: Mr. G. M. Braisby, 09 Apr 2008 
I bought this album because it had "Teardrop" & "Angel" on it,but I took the opportunity to sitin a completely dark room & properly listen to this...and couldn't stop listening to it the day after as well! It's calming, dark & beautifully written, especially songs like "Risingson", "Teardrop" & "Black Milk" (my new favourite!)
Buy this album, prepare to fallin love.
I'm in love - By: Naomi, 17 Mar 2008 
I truly adore this album.
Each song has it's own atmosphere & aura that I can barely put into words!
I'd have to say Black Milk is my favourite due to it's 'dark' feeling..
But each one is as good as the last.. In my opinion, this album has no faults..
It truly is an album you can listen to intently or have as 'background music'..

Yeah man, I dig "Teardrop" too. That "der-der der-cah" beat is sublime; the only time Mezzanine approaches true beauty through its instrumentation. You have to remember that Music Has the Right to Children was releasedin the same year though, and, compared with that album, Massive Attack's supposed classic falls way short. Different records, I know, but there's enough similarityin style for the comparison to be valid. While Boards of Canada used subtle melodies & ambience to stunning effect, Massive Attack retreat to their safety zone & use cheesy, weak female vocals, with lyrics that verge on embarrassing far too often. Does anyone even carry on listening after track four has finished?
Not enough stars available..... - By: C. Harrington, 18 Nov 2007 
Listening to this album still gives me goosebumps, it really is that good. 9 years on, & it still sounds fresh & innovative. Haunting vocals, deep bass, atmospheric, & an incredibly dark mood. Both chilled out & disconcerting at the same time. The vocals & build to a sudden crescendo on 'Dissolved Girl' being one of my favourite parts of the album.
An album every music fan should own, & a perfect antidote to the manufactured rubbish that gets broadcast over the airwaves.
Gargantuan legacy. - By: Ej Bowes, 24 Jun 2007 
this album has had more power over & more influence over British music than 99% of material produced since the beatles. every track gets a full 5 stars, nothing about it is hurried or below standard, the best album they ever released, dont bother with 'collected' just get this, its all you need.
