Portishead - Portishead (1997)



*Absurd children * says:
After a long time closed for business, here I am back to talk about my favourite bands and albuns and how they sounds for me. It's just great come back and see the dudes taking care of the house doing a great job and I must to say how embarassed I felt to post a release after all those changes and the vision I believe the blog has nowadays. Welcome to all new cooperators and let's change the subject and focus on what really matters:


The second album of Portishead, released on 1997 has a disturbing, strong and dense sonority in middle of sweetest and obscure lovesongs sang in a depressive and sexy way by Beth Gibbons. In choose between the three studio records from the trio of Briston, England, no doubts about this one being my favourite, even with Dummy (debut album recorded on 1994) and the hit "Glory Box", I absolutely prefer "Only You" (track #9).


In the days, the golden days
When everybody know what they wanted
It ain't here today

Dreams and belief have gone
Time, life itself goes on
Half Day Closing


*Absurd children * diz: O segundo àlbum do Portishead, data de 1997 e tem uma sonoridade extremamente forte e densa, criando atmosferas muitas vezes perturbadoras entre apelos românticos e monólogos cujo ouvinte apreciador torna diálogo através da voz melancólica e sexy de Beth Gibbons. Lembra muito, na minha opinião, um àlbum de estréia devido à crueza do som, numa elaboração menos pop fazendo com que dos três àlbuns lançados pelo trio de Briston, Inglaterra, seja o meu favorito. Ainda que exista o Dummy (que ficará para uma próxima ocasião) com a grande Glory Box, prefiro " Only You " (faixa #9).
