Portishead - To Kill A Dead Man




When you are at the start of your career, it's hard to get a break. Especially when one of your pet projects/ ambitions is to score soundtracks. Even more so when music critics mentioned that your music is cinematic and all. So what do you do? You get your entire posse together to shoot your own experimental (read: wanky) short film complete with bad acting from everyone and score your own film!

In 1994, Portishead did just that. The soundtrack is great! Beth Gibbons and Geoff Barlow (the founders of the band) look damn stiff in it. Hehehe...

But I guess if given the equipment, I'd do something like this since I doubt anyone would let me score their short/ film...
