Third

Synopsis of Third

«Third» is the album by Portishead, released in 2008 by Universal-Island Records Ltd., on CD.

After a decade without releasing a studio album, Portishead returns with a work that expands their trip hop into darker territories, with harsh guitars and electronic beats. Songs like «The Rip», «Machine Gun» and «We Carry On» show that evolution.

Recorded by the Bristol trio formed by Geoff Barrow, Beth Gibbons and Adrian Utley, it is Portishead's third studio work, with eleven songs and 49 minutes in length.

For fans of electronic and alternative rock who want to explore a rawer side of Portishead.
