Massive Attack ad 'banned on tubes'

Massive Attack have revealed that they were banned from advertising their new album Heligoland on the London Underground. The Bristol group were told by Transport For London that the record cover resembled graffiti too closely, forcing them to redesign the artwork for stations.

"They won't allow anything on the Tube that looks like street art," tells Robert '3D' Del Naja. "They want us to remove all drips and fuzz from it so it doesn't look like it's been spray-painted, which is f**king ridiculous. It's the most absurd censorship I've ever seen."

Massive Attack release Heligoland this week.
