The discography of British trip hop band Massive Attack consists of five studio albums, three compilations, five remix albums, one soundtrack, five EPs, eighteen singles, and twenty-seven music videos. The group was founded in 1988 by musicians Robert "3D" Del Naja, Adrian "Tricky" Thaws, Grantley "Daddy G" Marshall, and Andrew "Mushroom" Vowles in Bristol, England. Prior to this, all four were members of British sound system the Wild Bunch.
Massive Attack's debut album, Blue Lines, was released in 1991 and was a pioneering force in the forming of the fusion genre dubbed trip hop.{{cite web| url = {{Allmusic|class=artist|id=p13625/biography|pure_url=yes}}| publisher = AllMusic.
