When I reviewed Massive Attack’s latest musical attack “Heligoland” back in February I was really disappointed (4/10) but maybe it’s time I give it another spin. Their latest song from the album is “Psyche”, a chilled-out, trip-hopped ghost of a song, and the video is equally as ghostly.
With a school girl walking through the (I’m guessing) streets of London at night, she’s followed by bike-riding ghosts riding ghost-bikes who just won’t die. Or go away. I didn’t even know ghosts could ride bikes unless they died riding a bike a were then stuck as a ghost riding a bike…..if that IS the case then I really hope that I die eating cheesecake or something. Or maybe alongside my favourite squirrel.
