Eerie abysmal music is ripped from the jazzy voice Beth Gibbon's in depth at once to penetrate back into the light. Although Massive Attack and Björk were there before, so concrete dummy the music style until a an independent genre in the alternative with influences from hip-hop, lounge, ambient and avant-garde. Slow beats with hip hop rhythms, strange to spacey sound effects and hip-hop context rather unconventional instruments such as a Hammond organ and heady arrangements allow the thinking of smoky avant-garde singer / songwriter-lounge music. Ultimately Send to Portishead to a modern form of the '50s Space Age Pop record and add in the garb of contemporary music. Your music seems the more timeless, even after decades. Titles such as It's a fire, Glory Box, Roads, Numb or Mysterons bridging the gap between hip-hop, alternative and techno. And with such a reduced and at the same time style cross mix was successful the band and is fascinates me to this day. Something that I say but also about Björk and Massive Attack, just those three projects that justified the success of the style and transversely extends its influence by Nine Inch Nails on Madonna and the Gorilaz to Eminem by the music business. The grading of this album is heavily dependent on my days Constitution with me. Accordingly, I think it is also commonly used for a mood or depending Constitution. It's one of those pieces of music that must unfold in order to enjoy them. Just listening to it can either annoying or boring appear. Today a masterpiece, yesterday I did not want to hear it.
