first, lemme say this: wheeeeeeee!
about 4 months ago, i got 10 or so Portishead mp3's off the net, probly kazaa. and imo they were horrible shite. but about 2 weeks ago, when i asked here for trip hop, portishead was suggested, so i downloaded Dummy & Pearl. i didn't even bother listening, for fear of them being as bad as i remember. but last night i did listen, and they're so so so so so so good. i ended up burning both of them before i went to bed. wheee again cuz theyre so good

check denali, you might like them, they make pretty much the same music as portishead, little less electronic in it, but they have a good singer as well

Spookyluke tried to convince me that Portishead sound like Tori Amos (not tre!) but I had seen their performance on SNL and hated it. That was enough to keep me far away for a long time.
He made me listen to some of Dummy, and I didnt like it either. It bored me. :| It sounded like elevator music.
And I hate elevator music...
He still wants me to give Portishead another honest try. :| Do you think I should?

I thought both dummy and portisheads self titled were good, but I think I like their live performance the most
