More Info:
Digitally remastered and expanded edition of the sophomore release from trip-hop legend and Massive Attack co-founder Tricky. Following his debut Maxinquaye was never going to be an easy task for Tricky - the record defined a sound and a generation, and took abstract, stoned hip hop into the UK charts and around the world in the mid-1990s - but Pre-Millennium Tension managed that comfortably. Densely packed with Tricky's trademark choking, paranoid beats, intelligent skepticism and guttural rhyme technique, and boasting three successful singles, this album took the Bristolian to a far deeper, murkier level than his debut. So much so that Q Magazine dubbed Pre-Millennium Tension one of the 50 'Heaviest Albums Of All Time'. Well-received by both fans and critics, and featuring long-time collaborator, the brilliant Martina Topley-Bird, Pre-Millennium Tension is ripe for rediscovery. Remastered, and replete with sleeve essay from Record Collector's Paul McGuinness.
