Massive Attack - Atlas Air



British trip-hop duo Massive Attack follows its long-awaited album Heligoland with a limited-edition EP - and it's all for a good cause. The album supports Warchild, and is expected to be available on November 21st 2010.

Atlas Air marks the 15th anniversary of the legendary Help album, which brought Massive Attack together with the likes of Oasis, Blur, P.J Harvey, Radiohead, and other major British artists in support of the nonprofit organization that helps child victims of war. As with Help, all proceeds from Atlas Air will go toward the organization.

The EP will feature an edit of the titular song, a Tim Goldsworthy remix, plus the Guy Garvey-penned and previously unfinished Heligoland leftover track, Redlight (featuring the original Guy Garvey vocals).

Heligoland, released in February 2010, was the group's first new album since 2003's 100th Window. The album, which includes the single Paradise Circus features guest vocals from Damon Albarn, Hope Sandoval, Martina Topley-Bird, and Tunde Adebimpe.
