Glory Box – Portishead

You can’t put a price on the great gift this band has to create unique soundscapes, these kind of things feel to me a bit more common now with the development of recording techniques and some of the aesthetic trends that have grown to be more popular over the years, the rising popularity of bands like “the xx” has contributed to this and I feel Portishead somehow played a part in all this…

Some Like It Hot, Rear Window, Casablanca, The Shop Around The Corner, The Sound of Music. I fell in love with the classic black & white look, the classy women, and the fast talking, hopeless romantic atmosphere of that world…
