Blue Lines by Massive Attack


It still seems slightly incongruous that the city of Bristol should be responsible for the entire trip hop genre, but in retrospect this mix of laid back vibes with a hidden edge fits the place perfectly. This is easily one of the best albums of the 90s, albeit overshadowed by Britpop a few years later and a ridiculous controversy during one of the Gulf Wars where they were forced to change their name to Massive for a while. Unfinished Sympathy is the best known track on here, but everything else is worth listening to on the best headphones that you can lay your hands on.
