The iconic album will be played in full.

In terms of the defining records of the '90s, Massive Attack's wonderful third album, Mezzanine, will always make the grade as tracks like Angel, Teardrop, and Inertia Creeps are absolutely jaw-dropping. Well, we're delighted to say that the trip hop icons will be performing their beloved album in its entirety when they play the 3Arena on 24 February next year. https://twitter.com/TicketmasterIre/status/1057196162904702976 We're told that Mezzanine XX1 will be a totally new audio/visual production featuring Elizabeth Fraser and designed by Robert Del Naja with collaborators to be announced at a later date. The show will re-imagine Mezzanine 21 years on from its release using custom audio reconstructed from the original samples and influences. Speaking about the new tour, Robert Del Naja said: “It’s going to be a one off piece of work; our own personalised nostalgia nightmare head trip."
