Protection (1995)

EW's GRADE
C

Details Lead Performance: Massive Attack; Genre: Electronic

The dance-pop collective Massive Attach has enlisted Tracey Thorn of Everything But the Girl to fill in for departed singer Shara Nelson on Protection. Although Thorn's vocals overshadow everything else on these lackluster ambient grooves, it will take more than her jazz-lite croon to make fans forget Nelson's booty-beckoning style. Everything but the girl, indeed. C
