After a long decade Portishead is finally back and ready to release their Third album and I'm getting serious conflicting thoughts on it. Several tracks have a sound marshed around Beth Gibbons' eerie yet often soulful voice. The album as a whole sounds different than Dummy and a natural maturity from their self-titled. This sort of realistic sound of drudgery and triphop is so Portishead and either way I think it's going to have a great reception/welcome back from their fans. Although they've been still making music, as Portishead they've been away too long. They seem to have a couple more faster beats reflecting a bit more electronic influence or the usage of.

Portishead will be headlining over at that big Coachella Music Fest thing out there in the desert. The album's release date is lookin' to be around April 28th via Island. Be On The Look Out! We gots two tracks for you to check out. These are for demo purpose, please delete them and buy them album when it's out!

After hearing the entire album twice, I'd have to say the Godfrey's have completely poured out their emotions in their 6th album, revealing some heavy stuff throughout the band's rough recent years. The album willfully exemplifies a combination of a seemingly last leg effort, with nothing held back, and at the same time the usual Morcheeba canvas, which is unusual. With an overly appropriate album title, Dive Deep, achieves the often open collective of expressed varied genres with several guest artists to justify them, perhaps give different meaning. Simply Theraputic, feelin' me?

Dive Deep will be released with exclusive digital content on iTunes on Monday. You can get the album in stores on the 19th. Check their myspace for more music and tour dates to get the live experience, which is definitely someything else. This album is all about traditional, with non-traditional, and soulful electronic folk with some serious blues. Putting in hardwork to express pain sounds so sweet.

Enjoy The Ride
