Portishead is the rare band that could do exactly what they did on their first album for the rest of their career and there wouldn’t be a single unsatisfied customer in the house, which is kind of what they did on their self-titled second album, but in the eight years between Portishead and the cleverly named Third, the band managed to reinvent itself wholesale without sacrificing a single ounce of the dark, moody ambience they practically invented. That was in 2008. Now they’ve scheduled their first proper US tour in over a decade. The original line-up of Beth Gibbons, Geoff Barrow and Adrian Utley is playing theaters with a guitarist, a bassist and drummer Clive Deamer who recently recorded with Radiohead. Portishead tickets are on sale now, check them out playing We Carry On from Third at ATP in 2007.
