{"product_id":"massive-attack-no-protection-vinyl-lp","title":"Massive Attack - No Protection (Vinyl LP)","description":"\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eNo Protection is a 1995 dub album that takes Massive Attack’s trip hop landmark Protection and hands it to the British dub producer Mad Professor. Eight tracks from the parent album are reworked here under new titles, from the long opening dub of the title track through to ‘Backward Sucking’, his version of ‘Heat Miser’.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThe project grew out of a single remix. After Mad Professor delivered that first mix, the band asked him to hear more of Protection with a view to going further, and the full album followed in early 1995 on Wild Bunch and Circa.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eIt works as a true dub record, with the bass pushed forward, vocals reduced to fragments and the mixing desk treated as an instrument. Mad Professor added drums and percussion alongside Nolan Irie, with extra keyboards from William The Conqueror.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThis 2016 Virgin reissue presents the album as a single 180g LP, with lacquers cut at Abbey Road Studios and a download card for lossless WAV files of the album.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eNo Protection makes the most sense heard next to Protection itself, also reissued on vinyl in 2016, and it bridges the band’s early run from \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/juicyrecords.com.au\/products\/massive-attack-blue-lines-vinyl-lp-180g\"\u003eBlue Lines\u003c\/a\u003e into the darker territory of \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/juicyrecords.com.au\/products\/massive-attack-mezzanine-vinyl-2lp\"\u003eMezzanine\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Massive Attack","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46683981938773,"sku":null,"price":62.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0630\/7079\/7909\/files\/massive-attack--vs-mad-professor-no-protection-vinyl-lp.jpg?v=1794282579","url":"https:\/\/juicyrecords.com.au\/products\/massive-attack-no-protection-vinyl-lp","provider":"Juicy Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
