    Tambien alguien habia comentado que me faltaba THIRD en el post perdido, la verdadme entusiasmaba mucho un nuevo de Portishead y quede satisfecho mas no encantado como anteriormente, quedaria entre el 26-30, es un muy buen disco (4 estrellas), ahi tambien andaria el disco de Kanye West que todo mundo detesta y que a mi la verdad si me gusto.
