Portishead and Siouxsie.
And both after a very long stretch of inactivity.
Portishead.
Personally I liked Beth Gibbons solo work w/ Rustin mann(sp?)
I see no reason to wait 10 years then release an album that pretty much
just takes up where you left off.
"On May 18, 2008, producer/instrumentalist Geoff Barrow expressed the band's enthusiasm for recording new material on their official website's blog, stating "cant wait to write some new tunes."[15]"

Siouxsie:
Someone teach this bitch how to hold a note.
Seriously, her voice grates on my nerves.
It'd be better if she just spoke. Just talked into
the microphone as opposed to that hiccupy
too-cute shtick that no-one over 40 can do
without seeming a bt creepy.
Just my beligerant opinion.
Anyone else?
Well, god damn, you had ten years Geoffry!

Re: Two recent (dark/alternative) albums that I don't care for.
Fri, June 6, 2008 - 1:15 PMI still haven't heard the new Portishead yet, but I'm happy if they revisit the same places they've already been, as long as it's not a tired rehash. Dummy was one of those albums I musta bought 3 or 4 times.

Fri, June 6, 2008 - 1:23 PMAre you mental? Portishead's new album is practically Krautrock, something that they've never dared go for before, even though it's obviously their big love.
