Massive Attack 推出全新單曲「The Spoils」與「Come Near Me」

成立於 1988 年，來自英國 Bristol 的 Trip-Hop 天團 Massive Attack，於今年 1/28 推出自 2010 年《Heligoland》後的全新 EP《Ritual Spirit》，收錄四首歌曲，與長期合作夥伴 Euan Dickinson 共同製作，並宣布很快就會發行下一張 EP。相隔半年，即在 7/29 推出第二張 EP《The Spoils》，收錄兩首 Daddy G 與 Stew Jackson 的創作「The Spoils」和「Come Near Me」，分別邀來 Hope Sandoval 以及 Ghostpoet 獻唱。

We've been here before, don't fear me

Don't stand by the door, come near me

「Come Near Me」MV 由 Ed Morris 執導 ，找來科索沃演員 Arta Dobroshi 擔任女主角，從頭到尾被一名男子凝視跟隨，一路倒行。其中更特別加入 1991 年 Massive Attack 的經典曲「Unfinished Sympathy」，兩人最後一同消失於海洋中，詭譎懸疑。希望久違的第六張專輯一樣很快就會問市！

Written by Daddy G & Stew Jackson

We've been here before, don't fear me

Don't stand by the door, come near me

We've been here before, don't fear me

Don't stand by the door, come near me

Quick thought, left or right

Could it be a strong case of fight or flight?

We never notice we're slightly overworked

You're self-conscious

Sweating beads of doubt

This can't be right

Whisperin' out, "This can't be right, right?"

This ain't like a TV

[?]

I'm scared life will leave me

Strung out and needin' love

Surely I'm as overcome but brimstone won't come to [?]

But I ain't done

Surely I ain't done

Oh, nah nah, I ain't done

Oh, but my mind's on the run

Caused by your never-ending dream

And it ain't what it seems

It ain't what it seems

You know what I mean?

We've been here before, don't fear me

Don't stand by the door, come near me

Monster on the bed, regurgitating out

There's monkey on my back

Pulling 'em like puppet strings, slow to react

Tell me what's the matter, love

[?] drive slow-mo

Front cool in speedo

Fight against the rising tide

Breathe deep never stop clawing at the light

Clinging on to what we got

But I ain't done

I ain't done

Surely, surely, surely we must overcome

But my mind's on the run

My mind's on the run

Caused by your never-ending dream

Nah, and it ain't what it seems

It ain't what it seems

Baby, it ain't what it seems

Nah, it ain't what it seems

Too cruel to be me

To be cruel

Don't wanna lose

Uh

We've been here before, don't fear me

Don't stand by the door, come near me

We've been here before, don't fear me

Don't stand by the door, come near me
