Portishead - "Glory Box"

Bristol Trip-hop band Portishead were one of the most influential bands of the dance music genre in the 90's. Along with fellow Bristol band 'Massive Attack" they changed the musical landscape and took dance music to the indie crowd. They have only released three studio albums and one Live album in 15 or so years.... so the standard has been consistent throughout. "Glory Box" is from the 1994 debut album 'Dummy' and is so cinematic in a spy film kind of way. Probably the most recognisable Portishead song off a groundbreaking album that hasn't aged one bit.
