i once put this band on around some mates (having never heard them before, myself included) and was immediately rewarded with a slap on the head and a cry of "wot the fuark is this shit?!"

i had no explanation

Man, that first song is just indescribable. It's super strange sounding.

It's neat, but there's not much here that keeps me wanting to come back to it. As always, I find this one to be little more than a curious novelty.

Could use this description for the whole album imo. This isn't for me

Unfortunately Portal is a band that, in my opinion, require the artwork that comes with the record and visuals in their live show. It really adds a lot of mystique to their sound. And since they're so conceptual and all, it really does lack without it. I suppose you could enjoy it without all that context but it's a bit like watching a movie with the screen covered and only hearing it.

I can't see myself liking it anymore with that context said, though i guess it makes their sound a bit more understandable.

Digressing completely, you're last sentence kind of summarizes my overall gripe with all the "post" genres out there: it doesn't feel like music so much as movie soundtracks without any visuals

I think these guys might up their live game even more with silent film imagery live from a projector.
