As much as I love Massive Attack this was a real cash your chips in kind of release. I mean it is not like this is (11) CDs of new material or anything particularly rare. In fact all of it had previously been released in some form or another. All the important trax are here and some of the remixes, particularly the remixes from trax off Mezzanine, stand out. The problem here is that 63 trax could have fit on 5 maybe 6 CDs and instead here we have multiple versions of the same track spread out over the eleven discs. The artwork and heat sensitive packaging are cool... but who really buys music for the artwork?

No disrespect to Massive Attack, they deserve to cash in a little, but maybe next time they throw on some new remixes or some rare studio stuff.
