Portishead is an English band formed in 1991 in Bristol. They are widely recognized as pioneers of trip hop music and have made a significant impact on the genre. The band consists of Geoff Barrow, Beth Gibbons, and Adrian Utley, with Dave McDonald also contributing as an engineer on their early records. Portishead's debut album, Dummy, released in 1994, received critical acclaim and established them as a force to be reckoned with. They followed up with two more studio albums: Portishead in 1997 and Third in 2008.
The name "Portishead" comes from the town located eight miles west of Bristol along the coast that inspired them. Known for their mesmerizing live performances, the band occasionally collaborated with DJ Andy Smith during their shows.
If you're a fan of atmospheric beats and haunting vocals, Portishead's unique sound will captivate you. With their groundbreaking contributions to trip hop music and a discography filled with critically acclaimed albums, they have solidified themselves as one of the most influential bands in modern music.

lovely double vinyl 180 gm gatefold reissue. pnyc demonstrates how the recorded can translate equally well into the live, given a little inspiration and creativity. drawing on full string and horn sections and turntablist intervention from andy smith, they explore live soundtrack angles, lacing the original versions with measures of lalo schifrin, barry mancini et al. although some may be sceptical at the lack of new material, they shouldn't be put off. as the neo-classical sounds of "glory box", post rock of "sour times", brazen brass jazz of "all mine" and theremin-led hip hop of "mysterons" all comfortably cohabit the same place, managing to re-work and re-charm their way into your sub conscious. pnyc is a class delivery from portishead, from the arrangement and production to the performance and orchestration.
