Today’s KROQ Flashback: Portishead “Sour Times”

How is it possible Rodney hated the 1990′s when amazing sounds like this were recorded back then? This kind of down-tempo, downcast, depressing weird arse mix of a really old sound and a modern beat has always been a sound that kills me. Love it. More, please, dear musicians of earth, for this new year.

Seriously, right! I’m so proud to be a 90′s kid. That is one decade where music just went in all damn different directions. “There’s no end to the possiblities!” – Cable Guy. I remember hearing this song in the movie “Assassins” and I was like, That’s Right! This track is so sick! When KROQ hooked me up for Portis Head’s warm up gig before they did that Coachella appearance I totally wet myself. Seeing this gorgeous woman sing live is just amazing. The whole band rocks it! I wouldn’t mind seeing them in concert again. Great Flashback as always Sluggster! I know, Rodney is just from another era. I know my heart will forever be Generation X. Word!
