Thanks, but I think a YSI would be easier. Just go to YouSendIt.com, choose the mp3 in the "Select File To Send" box and click "Send It". Then all you have to do is wait for it to upload(it takes a couple of minutes), and it'll give you a download link when it's finished. It's that simple. You don't even have to put in any email addresses.

Does that work?

It does, thank-you!

Well, it definitely sounds like Portishead, albeit a stripped-down version. No samples or programmed beats apparent. Beth Gibbons sounds a bit throaty, assuming that is her and not a stunt-Beth. Considering it's been almost nine years since the last record, I wonder who's in the band these days?

I'm nowhere near my computer now, but I'll try to share "L'Hotel" (sorry, French speakers, for not bothering to find the shortcut to the proper "o" character) when I can. Seriously: the drum machine, the dub bass, the dissonant string crescendo -- if it weren't old Stipey but, I dunno, Milosh or Tiga, half of ILM would be doing backflips right now.

Never mind, I found this: http://www.myspace.com/PORTISHEADALBUM3
It seems they've taken the Broadcast route and got rid of the drummer.

Ah. It's a pretty cool cover though, I think.
