I hugged Beth Gibbons, and don't feel like washing for a while now. I never thought today would come and they'd finally come back after a decade, I'd been expecting the new album since 2005, but hell will it be worth the wait - They played alot of tracks from it, and all I'll say is theres some instant Portishead classics on Third. Though they're the most depressing band I can think of, after seeing them live I will die a happy man...
