some lass barking out Sour Times in a busy city centre, really understands the Satdy party atmosphere. Nice

Deep Water is pure pathos Strangers is an unnecessary early snooze :[ Sour Times is obviously a stronger song than Deep Water, but I think what the latter does in sequence is more striking than any individual part of Sour Times and I'd probs put them in similar positions on a full discog rank
Mysterons is awesome though and I would never say a word against it

sour times is like the perfect average of everything that makes a portishead song and kinda forgettable as such

My Dummy takes are simple and few:
It's A Fire kinda sucks
Strangers is uninteresting
Sour Times is fine but forgettable
Glory Box is great but overplayed to the point that I don't care much for it as a closer anymore
Everything else is perfect

Johnnys opinions in here are singlehandedly proving horseshoe theory with the points of reference being between himself and Colton

are It's A Fire being the worst thing on here by a mile and Glory Box not having aged fantastically (though not especially badly either) really that hot takes

Also you said there isn’t a great song on here until it could be sweet (which is objectively the worst song alongside it’s a fire) so you did say a word against mysterons

Also strangers is better than sour times and mysterons and is top 3 or 4

wellllll technically I said that saying there wasn't a great song on here until It Could Be Sweet would be a hot take (and it's one I'd maybe stand by if that involved setting a disingenuously high bar for greatness)

I like It Could Be Sweet a lot



My fave is prob Roads or Biscuit though, add Mysterons to round out a top 3
