100th Window - 10 February 2003 - 20 years

This record was released on 10 February 2003 - the one that sidetracked my life...

“I’m naturally quite a dark character inside and it was a dark time: post September 11 and the Iraq War,” described Robert Del Naja. “It was symptomatic of the isolation, of having to do it alone. It was painful but everyone was demanding a Massive Attack record."

from Massive Attack's 4th album, 100th Window

In France, music journalist Bertrand Dicale wrote: “Everything is there: introspection and sharing, pain and relief, realism and compassion. iIt’s probably the most stimulating album of 2003, the most intriguing and the most important.”

“What really kick-started the making of 100th Window to me was September 11 and the terrorist attack on the Twin Towers in New York,” Neil Davidge told me.
