Exactly 23. It happens to a lot of bands, Smashing Pumpkins is another example. I try to take the history out of any new album that comes out meaning I try to think like I'm 15 again and hearing it for the first time, whats my reaction? Given the musical landscape I'd take Zero 7's last album over Third any day. Not to say that Third doesn't have its moments, I just don't think it could stand on its own without the Portishead name on it.
However, since I did shell out the money for the album I am going to give it a fair test over time. There's lots of albums I dismissed at first and then grew on me to the point of obsession, Digitalism was one of those albums.
