Massive Attack's first DVD release was called Eleven Promo's. The second and much rarer release with more clips was on the bands limited edition Collected album available as a limited edition with an extra DVD as a bonus. I am pretty sure they are all in Pal format so you will have to have a modern multizone TV and DVD player to play it on a home system, or you could just play it on your computer. Before the band released a DVD compilation I had a pirated compile with an extra video done by a fantastic computer animator and video compositor at Omnicon Studios in Australia. Omnicon was one of the first video production companies in the world to have an SGI flame and Mike was one of the best computer animators in the world at the time. The flame had a large watercooled tower and was worth around two or three million dollars at the time. It sure pumped out some heat - even with the cooling tower it warmed the room. Anyway according to the rumour I heard (a good source), Mike Seymour, the Flame operator and compositor at Omnicon in Sydney was asked to do a video for the promotional launch video for the Flame by SGI. Mike chose to animate the song Heat Miser from his favourite band Massive Attack with the Eurochild character from the bands Protection album. So here it is in case you missed it - enjoy. (This copy was taken off the Australian music show Channel V on cable and was shown on Australian TV when the band toured here around 1995).
