乐队资料

Portishead是英国西南部的一个不起眼的港口,Portishead乐队的灵魂人物Geoff Barrow在那里度过了他的童年。在组建Portishead之前,Geoff Barrow曾在一些小的音乐制作室工作过,曾和Massive Attack合作过。乐队组建之后,先为一部名为《To Kill a Deadman》的影片制作了电影音乐(同时他们也参加了该片的演出)后加入GO! Discs公司。94年乐队出版了第一张专辑《Dummy》。

乐队经历

Portishead组建于英国的布里斯脱。1991.主要人员Geoff Barrow在西海岸一个打鱼镇子长大。

乐队组建之前,他在Coach House音乐室做录音带操作员。在那里他遇到了MassiveAttack,,并通过那里的成员,开始和Tricky一同工作,制作Sickle Cell Charity专集的说唱音轨。Barrow还为Nench Cherry的《Home Brew》写歌。尽管最后只用了《Somedays》一首歌。

大约在Portishead组建的那段时间,作为重混制作人的他已经赢得了一些声誉。这是由于他为Primal Scream、Paul Weller、Babreille Reille和Depeche Mode等乐队制作音轨而做的工作。

1991,Barrow在一次工作安排中遇到了Beth Gibbons,一名在Pub里演唱的女歌手。在此后的几年里,他们俩经常与Jazz吉他手Adrian Urley(在演唱会Pnyc中这位吉他手的感觉非常突出)开始创作音乐。Adrian Urley原先与Big John Patton和Jazz Messengers合作。

在发行专集之前,Portishead完成了一部短电影的拍摄《To Kill A Dead Man》,来向60年代间谍电影致敬。.Barrow和Gibbons视演片中角色并为之制作音轨。他们所制作的音轨引起了唱片公司GO!的注意.到秋天,Portishead已和公司签约.他们第一张专集《Dummy》随后开始发行。专集录音工程师DaveMacdonald在专集中打鼓并制作鼓机音轨.与吉他手Utley,组成了Portishead全部阵容。

Barrow和Gibbons对于媒介都很害羞,拒绝参与任何采访。媒介Melody Maker、MixMag,、Mixag和The Face把《Dummy》评为1994年度专集。

1995初,在未经任何Radio的播放宣传的情况下,《Glory Box》第一次名列13。此时,《Sour Time》进入MTV播放.不到几个星期,《Dummy》和《Sour Times》为US ALTERNATIVEROCK榜首.回到英国,专集跨越了主流,成为BRITSH TOP 40。

7月,获得MERCURY音乐奖.超过了被过高吹捧的Blur、Suede、Oasis和Pulp。第二张同名专集1997年发行。98年,举办了现场演出PNYC。

Portishead are an English band formed in 1991 in Bristol. They are named after the nearby town of the same name, eight miles west of Bristol, along the coast. Portishead consists of Geoff Barrow, Beth Gibbons and Adrian Utley, while sometimes citing a fourth member, Dave McDonald, an engineer on their first records.

Their debut album, ‘Dummy’, was met with critical acclaim in 1994. Two other studio albums were issued: ‘Portishead’ in 1997 and ‘Third’ in 2008.

On the 18th of May 2008, Barrow expressed Portishead's enthusiasm for recording new material on their official website's blog, stating that he "can't wait to write some new tunes".On the 28th of September 2009, Barrow announced "big plans" for a new project with a new angle, hinting that an album could arrive as soon as late 2010. Whilst the album had yet to materialise, on the 9th of December 2009, the band released the song "Chase the Tear" for Human Rights Day to raise money for Amnesty International UK.Additionally, on the 3rd of December 2008, Universal Music Japan reissued the albums ‘Dummy’ and ‘Portishead’ in limited edition on SHM-CD.

During Summer 2011, Portishead performed at a number of festivals in Europe, including, Pohoda Festival, Exit Festival, Benicàssim Festival in Spain,Rock Werchter, Paleo Festival, Roskilde Festival, the Hurricane/Southside Festivals in Germany, and the Super Bock Super Rock music festival. The band also headlined and curated the line-up for two All Tomorrow's Parties music festivals entitled ‘I'll Be Your Mirror’, in London at Alexandra Palace on 23 and 24 July. The second took place in Asbury Park, New Jersey from 30 September – 2 October.Portishead then visited several cities in North America, including New York, Montreal, Toronto, Chicago, Mexico City, Los Angeles, Berkeley, Seattle, Vancouver, and Denver during October. The ‘Chicago Tribune’ hailed the concert and noted: "horror-movie accents—Gothic organ, guitar lines thick with menacing reverb, spooky theremin—ensured a certain darkness". They finished their tour with a jaunt to Australia and New Zealand.Barrow stated in a ‘Rolling Stone’ interview that he would begin work on his portion of the album in January 2012, jokingly pointing out that it could be another decade before a new album is released.

In 2013 the band headlined the other stage at the Glastonbury Music festival and embarked on a European tour. In summer 2014, they played several concerts around Europe.2015 saw Portishead continue to perform live, playing festivals such as fib (Benicassim, Spain), Latitude (Southwold, Suffolk, UK), and the Montreux Jazz Festival (Montreux, Switzerland).Additionally, Portishead produced a cover of ABBA's song "SOS" for the soundtrack to the movie ‘High-Rise’ which had a Gala screening at the London Film Festival on 9 October 2015.On 22 June 2016, Portishead released an official video for "SOS" that recontextualized the song in the wake of the then-recent murder of MP Jo Cox and the Brexit vote, taking place the next day; the video ends with Beth Gibbons reaching her hand out towards the viewer and then a quote by Cox appears: "We have far more in common than which divides us." Also won Ivor Novello for Outstanding Contribution to British Music.
