So within the last 2 weeks I've developed a strong affinity for Portishead, been jamming their self-titled and Third albums nonstop at my work and I used to listen to Dummy every day as well last year. On top of my new-found Portishead addiction, I've also been listening to Massive Attack's Mezzanine and 100th Window albums repeatedly. I plan on picking up copies of Dummy, Blue Lines, and Protection soon when I get paid, but can anyone recommend any other artists I might enjoy? So far in my journey I've stumbled across Esthero's Breath from Another, Everything but the Girl's Walking Wounded, and Tricky's Maxinquaye, all of which fell short of my expectations. DJ Shadow's (or maybe DJ Spooky's? I always get them mixed up...) Endtroducing is another one I've been meaning to check out, and I've been meaning to check out some Bjork too (so far I've only listened to the Death Grips remixes, but I have Post and Medulla at my work), but I'm lazy and haven't done so yet, hence this thread.
So to elaborate, I guess I'm looking for some good female fronted groups, preferably in the trip-hop vein or at least "beat-driven", but I'm open to anything really. If nothing else, we can all just talk about how awesome Portishead is.
