After waiting 11 years for Portishead's Third, fans won't have to wait long for album number four. Guitarist Adrian Utley told BBC 6Music that the band will forgo further touring in support of Third to concentrate on a fourth full-length. (via NME) "We are thinking a new album," Utley said "That’s partly why we're not touring enormously, because in 1998 we toured for a year and a bit and it just crashed us. None of us wanted to see each other for a while after that.
"We got together the other night discussing stuff and getting a bit of a plan together. We’re all gonna be doing stuff. We've finished our touring for this album for this year because of things that we want to do."
