Portishead - dummy - 25th anniversary

A landmark album.
This was part of my growing up
I can't believe its 25 years.

The group comprised sampling guru Geoff Barrow, guitarist Adrian Utley, and vocalist Beth Gibbons.
The album is all about atmosphere and texture.

Some of the tracks used material that was first recorded to tape, then pressed to vinyl which was stomped on and kicked around to give that crackling sound.
It seems they recorded a lot to tape which imparts compression & frequency distortion.

No.    Title            Length
1.    "Mysterons"    5:02
2.    "Sour Times"    4:14
3.    "Strangers"    3:55
4.    "It Could Be Sweet"    4:16
