Portishead - Third (180g) Vinyl LP
Bristol's finest return starker, stranger, and utterly unbowed
- 180 gram double LP pressing of Portishead's 2008 album Third
- Geoff Barrow and Beth Gibbons rebuild their noir trip-hop into something starker and more abrasive
- Includes Machine Gun, The Rip, Silence, and Deep Water
Eleven years after their self-titled second album, Portishead returned with Third, a record that refuses easy listening. Geoff Barrow rebuilt the group's noir trip-hop into something starker and stranger: krautrock pulses, battered electronics, and beats slowed to a crawl beneath Beth Gibbons' unguarded vocals. Machine Gun lands like industrial percussion, The Rip unfolds from folk sketch into synth reverie, and Deep Water offers a brief ukulele reprieve. This 180 gram double LP pressing gives the album's low end and negative space the weight they deserve. Released 2008 on Island.
