Portishead Begin Work On Fourth Studio Album

July 8, 2008
Portishead Begin Work On Fourth Studio AlbumPortishead guitarist Adrian Utley has revealed that the band have started work on their fourth album.

Utley said that the band, who released their long-awaited third album, entitled 'Third', earlier this year, were already “getting a bit of a plan together.”

“We are thinking a new album," he told BBC 6Music. "That’s partly why we’re not touring enormously, because in 1998 we toured for a year and a bit and it just crashed us.

"None of us wanted to see each other for a while after that."

Utley also added that the band had only toured their latest album for a short period of time so that they could focus on their other projects and spend time with their respective families.

"To be at home with our children, very young children. I mean really, just babies - it is an important time and I don’t want to miss that,” he added.
