This evocative, high-intensity montage portrays a momentous American epoch that is yet to be named, and comes in the aftermath of the largest public protests in American history - focused on opposition to ICE raids, the militarisation of domestic forces, and state authoritarianism. \u003cem\u003eBoots on the Ground\u003c\/em\u003e is the first Massive Attack music distributed under a Spotify exemption policy. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn keeping with the band's sector leading efforts to reduce carbon emissions across both live activity and recorded output, Massive Attack have partnered with Good Neighbor to produce an ‘EcoSonic’ pressing. Manufactured using 100% recycled PET (rPET) rather than traditional PVC, the record is fully recyclable and produced via an energy-efficient injection moulding process - a significant shift in record manufacturing. Packaging follows the same approach, with sleeves made from 100% recycled, FSC®-certified paper stock and outer slipcases produced from recycled polyethylene.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eReleased: July 2026\u003cbr\u003eCat: PIASR1700PS\u003cbr\u003eLabel: Play It Again Sam\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eListen\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ciframe title=\"YouTube video player\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/L-57FrioeuE?si=zA7t37WTvdvGmpot\" height=\"315\" width=\"560\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTracklist\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA.
