Dreadful Submitted on: 2009-07-08 |

| Absolutely dreadful and just plain irritating to listen to. If I could rate this with zero stars instead of one, I would! |

Not many sound like it but a little repetitive Submitted on: 2009-06-26 |

Consider my rating 3 1/2 stars.
Maybe they got a little to latched onto this style. This is often a problem with bands whose style is very unique. While the first disc pops with originality, the inability to really push beyond that style in subsequent releases will cause many fans to move on and be happy with the first release. Often the only way for bands with such a unique style, like Portishead, to have long term success is to have long periods between releases so that a new generation discovers their sound and sounds fresh to old fans. If you have the first Portishead you can probably skip this one or download a few of your favorites. |

| Portishead's follow-up to Dummy is more abstract and eerie,but nevertheless just as good, if not better. There is a foreboding quality to the music; it is heavy and tortured but also mellow at times, as in the first single, Only You. If you are a fan you will be certainly pleased but this is also recommended for any fan of trip-hop and electronica. |

| Portishead being the 1997 release and the 2nd studio album peaked at #2 in the UK charts and #21 on the Billboard 200. Songs that I particularly like on this release are "All Mine", "Over" and "Only You". The booklet is a strange story with no lyrics, grainy photos and a mess of a list on the back. 4/5. |
