Good news for fans of trip-hop pioneers Massive Attack, who released a new EP, Ritual Spirit, last Friday. Featuring four tracks, the EP was written and produced by Massive Attack’s Robert del Naja and long-term studio collaborator Euan Dickinson and it marks their first new material since 2011’s Heligoland. Ritual Spirit also marks the return of friend and collaborator Tricky who features on the EP, as does Roots Manuva and Young Fathers.
Ritual Spirit precedes another EP written and co-produced by Daddy G, due in the Spring, and a full-length album set to be released later in the year.
Coinciding with EP release, Massive Attack have unveiled a video for ‘Take It There’ featuring Tricky. Hiro Murai directs.

Massive Attack’s Ritual Spirit EP is out now via Virgin/EMI.
