On songs such as "Silence" a teasing synth pulse is backed by, krautrock inspired drumming and jagged guitar strikes. On their current tour you can expect to hear two drummers.

It seems as though all of Portishead's tracks are encapsulated in a foreboding intensity, whether it be sonic as heard on the audio assaulting "Machine Gun" or emotional such as the hauntingly beautiful "The Rip", which seemed as though it was lifted straight from Emily Dickinson's diary.
Beth Gibbons vocal performance is reason alone to see the show. Channeling the fractured but devastatingly deep vocalization of Billie Holiday, both her delivery and poetic lyrics fit perfectly with the blend of industrialized electronica and downbeat jazz freak outs.
