Is nearly used in a relative sense here? cos if it is than you can expect this gem early 2008

they made an entire album before and scrapped it.
beth gibbons has a solo thing going at the moment.
I heard they send her the music and she puts lyrics to it.
they dont really even see each other until they record or tour.

catchy title! and loaded with political 'significance'.. aren't they a clever bunch? don't albums that take years and years to make tend to be a little shit though?

Is it that theyre shit, or is it that they dont seem as relevant because they were started at a certain time, especially with a band such as portishead. I mean you couldnt really seperate their sound from the mid 90s could you really?

edi: although i guess they havent released anything since then so... we'll just have to wait and see eh?

The Beth Gibbons/Rustin Man record from 2 years back is great... Adrian Utley played on it and toured with her, and i think geoff barrow had some input.

I can't separate their sound from This Life
