Ninja, I disagree with you about the Portishead album - think it's terrific but it takes a few listens. I do think it shows a maturity and development of their sound. I think I mentioned before but I find Dummy hard to take now. It was played to death when it first came out (by me and the rest of the world) and when I hear a song from it now I just switch off. I love the krautrock direction and think that its willfully obscure direction is what's putting people off. It doesn't sound like Dummy part 3 because they're all older and have moved on. Anyway I'm going on a bit...
In terms of recent comebacks, The Breeders album is quite good and Frank Blacks Svn Fingers is the best thing he's done since the Pixies as far as I'm concerned.
