Yeah, those are all great bands as well. I listen to all of them on a regular basis. ESPECIALLY Massive Attack. Protection is an absolute classic. Mezzanine and 100th Window pretty much stay on heavy rotation in the auto. I love how theatrical Hooverphonic can be at times. I combined all of their albums and made myself a couple of interesting car compilations.

Up! I this band. So many songs linked with so many moments in my life... Can't name one fav song but I especially like their live album. Also Beth Gibbons & Rustin Man album was really good - much less trip-hopey but very beautiful.

oh i cannot wait for clips....those titles really fascinate me.

 

[Changuito Ponc]

Oh boy, ive never seen this thread... Now that i do, im really happy to see there are still hard core trip-hopers in this efing world.

For me its all about Undenied... i still get nervous when i hear them (in a joyfull melancholic masochistic way, as we all do).

So we have Massive Attack, Hooverphonic, Morcheeba, Sneaker Pimps, all of those are great. How about Alpha, Baxter, Goldfrapp (first album only), Bang Gang (i looooooooooove them), Archive (looooooove them too), Broadcast, Sur Carabela (excelent stuff from south america), The Nand (or Yu Fei Men), Lamb, Hird (awesome tunes with Yukimi Nagano singing)... i need a break right now, im getting crazy thinking bands you may know/like too.

Hope that Portishead new stuff find a release soon, they have been working on that very album since '99 or so

 

[Batgeline]

Ugh I can't wait for that third album.

 

[Scott]

erm...goldfrapp was never trip-hop.

 

[Gincat]

I absolutely loved Portishead, I'm so excited they're making music together again. So many precious memories are tied up with their songs...
