About this album

Third is the third studio album by English musical group Portishead, released on April 28, 2008 on Island Records in the UK and on April 29, 2008 on Mercury Records in the US. It represents a departure from their previous trip hop sound into a darker, rawer, more industrial style. It is their first release in 10 years, and their first studio album in 11 years. Equalling the performance of their first two studio albums in their native United Kingdom, Third entered the UK Album Chart at #2, and became the band’s first ever U.S. Top 10 album on the Billboard 200, reaching #7 in its entry week.

such an amazing album. It really grew on me after I changed my expectations. I can't wait until the fourth.

I feel sad for the close-minded folks who say this is a bad album.

Trip-hop? Not anymore, fellas. I don't know what genre this could be. Hm, let's say experimental.

At every single hearing of this album, I like everytime more and more.... But I still don't like "Machine Gun", sounds boring to me. But "The Rip", and "Magic Doors" alone are worth the entire album. Oh, Beth ! <3

I was literally gambling my >RM40 when I bought this album, as I knew nothing about Portishead at that time - but I have to say this album is very very good.
