Sitting at the control desk of Massive Attack's studio, which lurks on an unprepossessing Bristol industrial estate, Robert "3D" del Naja lets out a sigh. No, he says, the album isn't exactly finished yet. Actually, he can't exactly say how finished it is. Six years after Massive Attack last released an album, its followup is "in a kind of state of flux". It's nearly done. They've had a lot of collaborators in. There was Guy Garvey from Elbow, Damon Albarn, Tunde Adebimpe from TV On the Radio and the California singer Hope Sandoval, the last of whom seems to have left what you might most politely describe as a lasting impression. "You ever seen 'Ope Sandoval?" asks the other half of Massive Attack, Grant Marshall, in his soft West Country burr, before exhaling heavily. "Fuckin' 'ell, mate."
