Recently I purchased the new Portishead LP, and my first feeling when I heard it was the pieces were so short! (Insubstantial?) Once I got past that, and accepted it for what it is, then I enjoyed the sonic mini-world they have have created. It is odd that I have spent 25 years in the studio making almost exclusively short pieces. I guess that is pop.
I have never been a fan of Paul Weller, but the revues of 22 Dreams have been so interesting that I was moved to buy that album too - and I have really been enjoying it. A deep and wide ranging excursion.
