They are back



他們回來了
足足相隔了十一年

這次的新專輯"3"在編曲方面"放大"了
朝多方向發展
machine gun仿傚機關槍聲強烈的重覆鼓聲
類似的重覆節奏亦表現在nylon smile, we carry on及plastic
也有deep water的淸新結他小品
延續以往的沁透酸澀的small
以前beth的主角地位往後退了
聲線融會進音樂當中
悽楚的聲音還在
只是弱化了以前Roads,over, sour times的那份苦澀
於是整體變得更風格化

Portishead is back! They didn't release album almost 11 years.
In their new album "3", they more focused on the music arrangement (somehow Beth was a leading role in the first two albums). However, Beth's voice is still quivering & soulful. The outcome is not as sad as the old songs like Roads, over, sour times but stronger characteristic.
