Yes, it’s a great pressing and 180 gram vinyl but more importantly, the title track Ritual Spirit is among Massive Attack’s best work. Flawless production, great vocal from Azekel and really phat sub bass. Sounds amazing on a big system. This track is never leaving my record box.
When Massive Attack finally sit down to record a new album, I hope they use Ritual Spirit as a blueprint.

I just scored a copy of this EP and even though it cost more than any other EP in my collection it was worth every penny. Great pressing of 4 absolutely amazing tracks. IMO one of the best releases in the MA catalog.
-
Sounds terrific ! Such a depth in the mix. It was a bit expensive here in because of the importation, but it was worth the effort. -
Additionally, and hopefully to their credit, Sandbag offered a refund. So I'll take them up on it and see how it goes, obviously requesting that they pay for the return shipping.
-
Not a double as d. I complained and got the "sorry, misprint" email. Wouldn't have bought this 4 track EP for 20 pounds, very hard to swallow. Having said that, my pressing is dead quiet, quite remarkable really. NOT recommended for that price, they should be ashamed.
-
Does anyone else seem to get a strange ticking sound on both sides? it seems to be a little black bit in the vinyl (as if it's marbled) that causes the ticking.
anyone? -
I have ordered a limited double vinyl for 20 UK Pounds ... 29 Jan 2016 massive attack website ... today I have received a single vinyl edition ... is fraud ... what else? ... Track okay, but not the bests from MA
