The so-called "new" album from Portishead, Alien, is actually not an album at all. How this information perpetuated itself across so many credible news sources undetected is beyond me. However, the band's official website have issued an official statement: "We have noticed that there is some confusion on an album release called Alien. Please be aware that this is NOT a Portishead release. The band are in the studio working on new material now but no release dates are scheduled as yet. Keep an eye on the site as any release plans will of course be announced here first!" Ugh! So, we're still waiting. So, just forget about Portishead and that fact they are still even together, and we'll all be surprised when they get their shit worked out.
