True, and very good it was too, but it wasn't no Portishead that's for sure.

My sister used to listen to them when we were younger. Don't they have an album called dummy that's supposed to be good?

Never heard of them, but it's nice to see you're realizing a dream.

Great news!

Their second album is one of the greats, trouble is it's so discordant you have to listen to it about 10 times to realise it

Agreed, you only hear people talk about Dummy but the second is equally as great, somewhat darker and infact they work great one after the other.

Just hope they still have it in them to make a worthy third album.

Some fecker's "borrowed" both CDs, I haven't listened to them in years.

Hunt he/she down, this situation is largely unforgivable.

Nah mate, I decided not to bother in the end. Bit too pricey IMO.
