| | Portishead |
| | Portishead is a calculated sonic collage of trip-hop beats, the crackle and pop of a scratchy pile of old Stax singles, busy signals. | | | They may turn out to be the Cowboy Junkies of the '90s, the band who hit with a sustained mood piece that connects with all sorts of different listeners, and then show themselves to be one-trick ponies on the follow-up. | | | That may be why their UK-only EP Numb came out with a band-made short film called To Kill a Dead Man, a title as suggestive and needy of something to flesh it out as the band's music. |

| | The Noir Sound Of Portishead |
| | With their new album, Portishead indicate that there are still vast sonic landscapes to explore. | | | Although in an early 1995 Dummy-era interview with Addicted to Noise, Barrow predicted Portishead's music would take a new direction, Portishead is a plaintive, disturbing and refreshingly honest album that builds on the sound that made their first record such a revelation. | | | Such was the case with "Sour Times," Portishead's breakthrough 1994 single, as well as the group's entire debut album, Dummy. |

| | Both Barrow and Gibbons were media-shy -- the vocalist refused to participate in any interviews -- which meant that the album received little attention outside of the weekly U.K. music press, which praised the album and its two singles, "Numb" and "Sour Times," heavily. | | | Around the time of Portishead's formation, he had begun to earn a reputation as a remix producer, working on tracks by Primal Scream, Paul Weller, Gabrielle, and Depeche Mode. | | | As a result, Portishead appealed to a broad audience -- not just electronic dance and alternative rock fans, but thirtysomethings who found techno, trip-hop, and dance as exotic as worldbeat. |

| | Portishead, based on this album alone (I refuse to buy the apparently more lucid and less dark album Dummy), is over-hyped crap. | | | When Portishead resurfaced in 1997 with their eponymous sophomore effort, listeners once again took notice of the music. | | | It’s easy to imagine Portishead discussing how they can make the song more artsy and purposefully adding distortion and thus alienating people who really enjoy listening to music and not having to plug their ears. |

| | Portishead's mix of '60s soundtrack music, hip-hop beats, dub and detached female vocals became an instant reference point when their first album, Dummy, came out, in 1994. | | | At this point, we can only hope – for their sake and for the listeners' – that they come up for air soon. | | | Paradoxically, the music can simultaneously sound huge (Barrow is an amazing sonic architect) and be tensely coiled onto itself. |
