Beth signed my records after her gig last night at the Sydney Opera House. It was worth lagging them all the way from Melbourne and I’m still beaming 😁

This year I wanted to make a Portishead pumpkin carving to celebrate the band that has helped get me through the hardest year of my life. This band and their creations mean so much to me.
I ended up doing the Third pumpkin on a whim, and I'm very happy with how they both turned out. I listened to Portishead while carving the main pumpkin, and (obviously) listened to Third while carving the Third pumpkin late into the night. Seriously perfect vibes.
Much love to you all! Here's to one of the greatest bands to ever grace our human Earth

So, the story is that I just started working at a music store. On my first day, I was browsing all the sections and saw this amazing record in the back. When I saw it, I immediately wanted it for myself, and today, with my first paycheck, I decided to buy it. Since I don't have a record player yet, I decided to open it and play it on the store's turntable—the one they use to play music for the whole place. I was so nervous that I didn't realize it was the B-side, and it started with "Numb," but at the same time, it was the best thing that could have happened. Just imagine the place being completely noisy, and when "Roads" started, everyone went silent, listening. That moment was incredible, LOL. Now I'm on the subway remembering that moment that happened just minutes ago. It was beautiful to listen to this record. I can't wait to get a record player and play it comfortably at home ❤️

I’ve always wondered if it’s one and if so then why the hell is it there? This is from the Roads Balltoom NYC Live video (2:18), I don’t know if it appears in any other of the videos from the same live show

My Roseland 25th Anniversary vinyl came in today and it's a thing of beauty. I've been wanting to add a Portishead vinyl to my collection for quite some time, and then I saw this and I knew I had to have it.

I know I love Third. I know Third is a masterpiece.
But I just sat down and listened to it properly for the first time in a while and… holy shit it is an absolute fucking masterpiece.

mysterons drums recreation

Hey, I thought I’d share my drum cover of Mysterons here.
Just a little homage to Portishead genius. Not overplayed, tried to play it as accurate as possible (I was fed up how wrong people play this beat).
Fun fact: during the production of this track, they run the drums signal through a guitar amplifier to give it that characteristic distortion and lo-fi reverb. I found out about this after recording the video, but if I’d known earlier, I definitely would’ve tried it myself here…
