Portishead ready new single for June
Portishead have revealed more about 'Third', their long-awaited new album, describing it as the "older brother" of its predecessors. Guitarist Adrian Utley has also described the album's sound as a departure in some areas. He told Billboard: “It sounds nothing like 'Dummy' or 'Portishead', but it’s definitely its older brother or sister. It’s the same mindset we’ve always had, only further down the road.”
Trio 'Rip' another track from 'Third'
The band will release 'The Rip' on June 9.
The track is taken from the trio's recent record, their first in 11 years, and follows the release of 'Machine Gun' in April.
