This is a short film produced by Portishead as a crowd warm-up video for their live shows...

"Road Trip" is a ten-minute film featuring footage of a car driving to the town Portishead, accompanied by a soundtrack comprising a mix of Portishead instrumentals spliced together by the group's official tour DJ Andy Smith. "Road Trip" was shown as the introduction to each of the group's live shows on the world tour.

I don't think this will make it. You really have to be into Portishead to love it.

isn't that sacrilegious to the Sift? Doubting the ability of any stop-motion with music video to die in the queue!?...

Maybe those Sifters who aren't into Portishead - will be, after they watch all these incredible Portishead videos!

Na just speaking from personal experiences when I tried to show this to my groups of friends.

Come on now Farhad...you don't really have friends outside the Sift (be honest now!) </FACETIOUSNESS>

And you do? Mister Chartered membership? Mister I have to put stats of all the videos I posted because am a geek? Think before you type.

Hey, the " </FACETIOUSNESS>" should give away the obvious attempt at comedy (that's two faces: ones your smiley and the others my tag). Yeah: I'm obviously a geek (no Technician/Programmer isn't!) - and also I'm proud of my Dave Gorman style dark side (the same stats have verbally beaten you into submission how many times now!?) And you saidwho's sensitive?...

I thought you knew me better by now

The rest seemed like nonsense so to me so I wouldn't even justify it with a response.

With your logic Farhad...everything seems non-sensical

Comment hidden because you are ignoring dag.(show it anyway)

Upvote for the "who's the biggest geek" hostility.

I view "geek" as synonymous for "artist" and "genius". If Poe was alive today, he'd have an awesome goth blog. Edison would be building homebrew robots. Wear the badge with pride.

Am surprised you would go as far as send a link to me about this meek response that you mustered to my linguistic brilliance. That's just asking for it. Fine, let me degrade myself to some pompous geeky technical level that you seem to reside on...

My good sir, you keep statistics just to pinpoint how poor your sifting choices are, your post to discard ratio is miserable, almost a clear cut 50/50, while mine is far more successful.

Does this response satisfy your 'Dark Dave Gorman' side?

*yawn*

My feelings exactly LadyBug: *Yawn... (at Farhad)

Thanks for the vote & comment Dag!

Only mad men would listen to what a person pretending to be an insect would have to say. Heard any prophecies from the birds and the bees Benjee?

I think that you should change stopmotion to turntablism in your tags. This is some of the best use for two turntables I can think of.

I used to live in Portishead. It's grim.

... Portishead is a place? ... wow, 'the more you know'.
