Massive Attack, a popular 90s band, recently performed an unforgettable concert in their hometown of Bristol after being away for five years. The British trip hop collective, lead by Robert "3D" Del Naja and Grant "Daddy G" Marshall, formed in 1988 and gained recognition with their 1998 album Mezzanine reaching number one on the UK charts. Some of their well-known singles include Teardrop and Unfinished Sympathy.
The concert, which took place at a climate-conscious event called Act 1.5, hosted by the Tyndall Centre for Climate Change Research, was not only a musical success, but also had a strong political message. The group performed on a stage powered by 100% renewable energy and collaborated with artists such as Horace Andy, Elizabeth Fraser, and Scottish band Young Fathers. The arena was also filled with compostable toilets, reflecting the band's commitment to sustainability and the environment.
Throughout the concert, phrases like #stoptheleft, #antiimmigration, #saveourkids, and #tommyrobinson flashed on screens behind the band, making a statement about current political issues. They also used their platform to show solidarity with Palestine, inviting Palestinian photojournalist Motaz Azaiza to speak about the ceasefire in Gaza.
In an interview with the BBC, Massive Attack expressed their passion for participating in climate-forward events in the music industry. They acknowledged their own past pollution and explained that it was important for them to do their part in saving the planet for future generations. The concert also faced torrential rain, but the fans' spirits remained high, and the show was a huge success.
Fans praised the band's performance and the merchandise sold at the concert, which reflected their support for immigrants and social justice. The concertgoers shared their experiences on social media, with many calling it the "gig of a lifetime." One fan even mentioned that Massive Attack has been a huge part of their life since they were young.
The band's commitment to sustainability and their message about current issues prove that they are more than just a musical group. As one fan commented, they are "standing on the right side of history." It is clear that Massive Attack's concert in Bristol was not just a show, but a powerful statement and call to action.
