Here's the low down:
"MASSIVE ATTACK DENY RUMORS THAT THEY ARE SPLITTING: MASSIVE ATTACK have
issued public
statement denying the BBC RADIO 1 reports (which I also reported on
here) that they are splitting up. In a statement
posted on NME.COM the band said, ""Further to recent remarks in the
media. Massive Attack would like to state that
they are not splitting up. The comments made to Radio 1 were intended
to be flippant and not be taken literally.
Massive's remarks were made in response to the journalist's cliched and
tired questioning about the so-called
"depressing" nature of 'Mezzanine'. Massive Attack would also like to
reiterate that the forthcoming UK tour is most
definitely going ahead as is the release of the singles box set on
December 7." This is great news for all of us
heartbroken fans who were bemoaning the premature death of a great
band. NME also reports that the band have
added more dates to their UK tour. They will be playing the Bristol
Anson Rooms on December 15, 16, 18 and 19.
Yippee!!"
Indeed.
