Our Take

Well, well, well, look who's back with another dose of moody trip-hop magic. It's Portishead, everyone's favourite Bristolian trio, with their self-titled sophomore album. And let me tell you, they haven't missed a beat. From the haunting vocals of Beth Gibbons to the atmospheric production of Geoff Barrow and Adrian Utley, Portishead's sound is as hypnotic as ever. Tracks like "Cowboys" and "All Mine" showcase the band's ability to blend soulful melodies with eerie electronic beats, creating a sonic landscape that is both chilling and captivating. But it's not all gloom and doom on this record. "Only You" and "Humming" bring a touch of sweetness to the mix, with Gibbons' delicate vocals shining through the darkness like a ray of sunshine on a stormy day. Overall, Portishead's self-titled album is a masterclass in mood-setting music. It's the perfect soundtrack for a late-night drive through the city or a solitary walk in the rain. So grab your headphones, press play, and let Portishead take you on a journey through the shadows. Verdict: 8.5/10 - Pitchfork Magazine

About the artist

Portishead

PORTISHEAD, the iconic trip-hop trio from Bristol, UK, burst onto the music scene in the early 1990s with their groundbreaking debut album Dummy. Lead vocalist Beth Gibbons's haunting vocals combined with Geoff Barrow's innovative production techniques created a sound that was truly ahead of its time. Their music is like a fine wine, getting better with age. Each album released by PORTISHEAD is like a musical journey through the minds of a group of artists who are unafraid to push boundaries and experiment with different sounds. From the dreamy melodies of "Sour Times" to the raw emotion of "Wandering Star," PORTISHEAD's music never fails to captivate and inspire. One listen to their dark, brooding tracks and you'll be transported to a world where heartbreak and longing reign supreme. It's the kind of music that makes you want to pour yourself a glass of red wine, light some candles, and ponder the complexities of the human experience. But don't let their melancholic sound fool you - PORTISHEAD are also known for their high-energy live performances. Beth Gibbons's powerful vocals paired with Geoff Barrow's infectious beats make for a truly unforgettable concert experience. In a world where mediocrity reigns supreme, PORTISHEAD stands out as a shining beacon of innovation and creativity. They are the type of band that reminds us why we fell in love with music in the first place. So sit back, relax, and let PORTISHEAD take you on a journey through their twisted, beautiful minds.
