Influential female fronted band from Bristol, UK. Part of the trip hop genre with their laid back beats and cool scratching. Their first album "Dummy" (1994) was praised by the media. And their second album, "Portishead" was welcomed warmly, although had quite a different sound to their first album. It was more dark and disturbed. But still just as original and enjoyable with that distinct jazz-fusion meets hip-hop feel about it.

No Bull Shit, and old hacker acronym which is usually used to signify that the talk will be serious.

The best band on earth

Anything that is less than completely satisfactory.

An under-the-skin pimple that you can't see but you can feel and it hurts really, really bad.

An influential but egocentric bunch of musicians from Bristol in the UK.
Renowed for their offensive, prima donna attitudes to the staff of all venues unlucky enough to put them on. In fact their split was partly down to the fact no promotor or venue would touch them in the end.
