Album of the Day: Portishead - Portishead

I’ve listened to this on AirPods. I’ve listened to this on a pair of bass boosting, noise canceling big beasts; I’ve even gone old school and played this on CD through my amp, with bass boosted. Yet it still sounds SO tinny. That’s the appeal, right? You’re always half a track away from a possible film soundtrack. It all adds to the sense of suspense, even if the bass has got lost down the back of the settee.
