    The overall feel of this cd is sure to please Massive Attack fans. For those who are just beginning to explore their sound, Mezzanine is the place to start. Still, 100th Window is sure to please the most ardent followers of this genre-defining act.

  1. The naysayers do not understand. Their expectations hamstring them.... Like the glass sculptures featured in the artwork it is precise, transparent, dangerously fragile, and ominously lit. 100th Window is a masterpiece of its kind.
  2. If there's one misstep on 100th Window, it's that [Sinead O'Connor's] talent and her range are underused.

    While its hardly an overwhelming masterpiece like Blue Lines or Protection, it still stands head and shoulders above most everything else. [Mar 2003, p.95]
