Music News: Trip Hop Legend Confirms Debut Album

Beth Gibbons of Trip Hop legends Portishead has revealed plans to release her debut album, Lives Outgrown.

Gibbons took to Instagram to reveal their first solo LP after decades of performing with the British trip-hop Leviathans.

“As usual it reflects what’s been going on with me internally, my 50s have brought forward a new yet older horizon,” she revealed.

“It has been a time of farewells to family, friends and even to who I was before, the lyrics mirroring my anxieties and sleepless nighttime ruminations, hence ‘Lives Outgrown.’ Not just because of the way we travel through emotional or psychological transitions in our lives but relating more to the time we leave this planet and our motion into the unknown. Something I fear but just need to try and celebrate as a moment approaching, gifting the ability to grow beyond the restraints of this physical world.”

Gibbons added “The sound was also a process, exploring structures within my own personal capabilities. I wanted to draw away from breakbeats and snares, focusing on the woody fabric of timbres away from the sugary addiction of high frequencies that satisfy like sugar and salt.”

Unfortunately, we do not currently have an official date for the release of Lives Outgrown, but Gibbons did not on Insta that it would be “very soon.”
