  • And the Fandom Rejoiced: A frequent source of excitement for Massive Attack albums is who they'll collaborate with next.
  • Epic Riff: "Atlas Air" has one of the most memorably catchy riffs known to man.
  • Genius Bonus: Heligoland is named after a German archipelago that has previously been a Danish and a British possesion.
  • Mondegreen: The actual lyric from "Man Next Door" is Always a fuss and fight, but Horace Andy's accent makes it hard to not hear it as Always a fussin' fart.
  • Nightmare Fuel: A lot of their songs have extremely creepy undertones. "Butterfly Caught," "Risingson," "Angel," and "Inertia Creeps" all qualify.
    • "Atlas Air." "Let 'em feast, my heart is big, my blood will slide [...] fish like little silver knives make the cuts on my insides."
    • The cover of Mezzanine.
  • Paranoia Fuel: "Man Next Door", arguably.
