Portishead (band)
Portishead () is an English band formed in 1991 in Bristol. The band is named after Portishead, Somerset, eight miles west of Bristol, along the coast. The band comprises vocalist Beth Gibbons, producer Geoff Barrow, and musician Adrian Utley; Dave McDonald, an engineer on their first records, is sometimes cited as the fourth member. Portishead's debut album, '' Dummy'' (1994), fused hip hop production with yearning vocals from Gibbons and an atmospheric, cinematic style reminiscent of spy film soundtracks. The album was met with commercial and critical acclaim, quickly becoming a landmark album in the emerging trip hop genre. However, the band disliked being associated with the term, and would consciously step away from that sound on later releases. Two other studio albums have been issued: '' Portishead'' in 1997 and ''Third'' in 2008, both of which received similar acclaim. In 1998, the band released a concert album, ''Roseland NYC Live''.

Sour Times
"Sour Times" is a song by English trip hop group Portishead, from their debut album, '' Dummy'' (1994). It was written by all three members of the band and released as a single by Go! Beat Records in August 1994, accompanied by three bonus tracks: "It's a Fire", "Pedestal", and "Theme from ''To Kill a Dead Man''". ''NME'' ranked it number 32 in their list of the 50 best songs of 1994. '' Slant Magazine'' placed it at number 77 in their ranking of "The 100 Best Singles of the 1990s" in 2011. Composition The song uses a sample from Argentine composer Lalo Schifrin's "Danube Incident", from the 1967 album, '' More Mission: Impossible''. Portishead sped up the sample to a desired tempo which took Schifrin's arrangement up nearly a semitone, giving the song a dissonant kind of " hip-hop tuning". Critical reception Dave Sholin from the '' Gavin Report'' described the song as a "moody, mysterious and haunting production." Chuck Campbell from '' Knoxville News Sentinel'' felt the "s ...

Glory Box
"Glory Box" is a song by English electronic band Portishead, released on 2 January 1995 as the third and final single from their debut album, '' Dummy'' (1994). It samples " Ike's Rap II" by Isaac Hayes. Critical reception James Masterton said in his weekly UK chart commentary that "Glory Box" "is definitely one of the more gloriously slinky indie records released in ages". A reviewer from ''Music & Media'' commented: "Put the violin of the late Papa John Creach on top of it, and you get the Jefferson Airplane for the '90s. Based on a sample from Isaac Hayes's ''Isaac Moods'' it's 'suspense dance'." Maria Jimenez from the magazine's Short Grooves wrote: "This bluesy, emotional and hypnotic number is set to a very mellow, minimalistic and spacious hip hop musical backdrop. Potent vocals reminiscent of Cowboy Junkies and intense guitar energy and dub bass amplify the power of Glory Box." Andy Beevers from ''Music Week'' rated it four out of five, describing it as "another highly ...
