I agree with nearly all the other reviewers here - this is a FANTASTIC album.

However, I would like to clear something up: This IS the same as the "Danny the Dog" soundtrack. In fact, they are the same movie, too. It was release in the UK as "Danny the Dog", but will be released stateside under the "Unleashed" moniker. In the localization process, they found that the name "Danny the Dog" wasn't "tough" enough.

So, if you already own the Danny the Dog soundtrack, pass this up. But if you have neither, buy this. I've you love Massive Attack, this will not disappoint.

If you have Danny the Dog, you shouldn't buy this cd, It the same music under a diffrent Tittle, Unleashed has an extra song.

The end title song for the movie is an unreleased track called Aftersun that is available from www.dotallison.com under the media link as an MP4 file. A truly beautiful song that should have been on the OST CD.

I don't want to start arguments about 100th Window but this album is much better. It has a more electronic feel that's closer to 100th Window, however it has the much needed edge that 100th Window was missing. This album is totally instrumental but most of the tracks are enjoyable nonetheless. I would recommend using this more as background music because it gets very slow at times to fit the movie. The production is still very good and the tracks show the creativity and darkness that made Massive Attack so popular.

I rated the Danny the Dog soundtrack (same movie) higher because they had the good sense not to include two very crappy bonus tracks.

2 1/2

A fair soundtrack album from the pioneering trip-hop group will not go over to well with fans expecting fleshed out, vocal-based singles. Playing out closer to a Dust Brothers disc, this meandering score may work well as background music, though rarely has little of substance to offer when examined closely. In between rambling keyboards and textbook beats Massive Attack does manage to throw a few tracks worth revisiting, but a majority of this generically diverse score fails to engage outside it's cinematic counterpart.

I thought the album was great but i am disapointed that the last song on the movie in the ending credits is not on the album. The last song is an unrealeased Massive Attack song called "Aftersun"

Great album and everyone should get it. One thing though. The end of the trailer had a bit of Muse's track apocalypse now. I was a bit dissappointed to not find it on the album. Never the less, great album.

This is an AWESOME soundtrack. Not that I ever expect less from Massive Attack, however, I bought the Danny the Dog soundtrack first, and now this one came out. Wonder why they released 2, I guess it was too obscure NOT to have a picture of Jet Li on the cover, and to have a different title. But hey, I understood! There are two extra songs on the Unleashed CD, however, they are not Massive Attack songs, so no loss. Just depends what cover you would rather have. I think the Danny one is pretty rad though.

As a big fan of Massive Attack, I picked this up kinda late after seeing the movie. The songs kept creeping into my daily life until I couldn't take it anymore. I had to give in and purchase this great sountrack to one of the better movies of 2005.

During the end credits there is a song playing that I don't believe is credited (I searched everywhere), and I would really like to know who it is. It's the first song that plays during the credits, a sort of electronic beat with a woman singing.

If anyone knows who this is or what the song is called I'd be grateful to hear.
