Protection is the second studio album by English electronic music group Massive Attack, released on 26 September 1994 by Wild Bunch Records and Circa. DJ Mad Professor remixed the album in 1995 under the name No Protection.
Like most of Massive Attack’s albums, the music often defies categorisation, ranging from R&B (title track and “Sly”) to hip hop/rap (“Karmacoma” and “Eurochild”) to reggae-tinged synth-pop (“Spying Glass”) to classical-influenced electronica instrumentals (“Weather Storm” and “Heat Miser”). The album follows Blue Lines structurally, to the point that the font used on the cover of the album is the same, Helvetica Heavy Italic. The album cover also nods to Blue Lines, revealing a futuristic, impenetrable wall behind a mostly-burned version of this previous album’s artwork—implying that the depicted “flammable gas” had been ignited.

Tricky again appeared on the album, rapping on the tracks “Karmacoma” (whose video was directed by Jonathan Glazer, and which featured a sample from The KLF’s “Dream Time in Lake Jackson” at the 2:00-minute mark) and “Eurochild” (which featured samples from Startled Insects’ “Cheetah” and Liquid Liquid’s “Lock Groove (In)”).

About Virgin

The legendary UK record label Virgin Records is where it all began. Richard Branson started selling records in the classified pages of Student magazine in 1970 under the name Virgin Mail Order. Soon, record sales were doing so well the team decided to transform into a bricks and mortar store on Oxford Street, London, and Virgin Records was born. It brought a fun twist to retail, offering a place to listen to records and relax with friends, and earned a reputation as an industry disruptor. From its humble beginnings, Virgin Records grew into an influential record label that proudly did things differently. During the 1970s it converted a sixteenth-century mansion into a private studio. Artists could spend weeks there working on their music. Mike Oldfield’s Tubular Bells was the first album Virgin Records released. It went on to be one of the biggest selling records of the 1970s and featured on the soundtrack to The Exorcist. Over the years, some of the biggest names in music have signed to Virgin Records, including Sex Pistols, The Rolling Stones, Spice Girls and Taylor Swift. Virgin Records continues to operate as an imprint of EMI Records.
