Lives Outgrown, the long-awaited debut album from Portishead singer Beth Gibbons, has officially arrived. Stream all 10 tracks below.
Arriving 16 years after the most recent Portishead project, Lives Outgrown is an existential, wide-ranging effort that plays with themes of nature, destruction, hope, and dread. Gibbons described Lives Outgrown as her “most personal work to date,” and characterized the project as packed with “lots of goodbyes.”
Last month, listeners got a taste of Lives Outgrown with the release of “Reaching Out,” while the first single, “Floating on a Moment,” was named our Song of the Week upon arrival. The LP was produced by James Ford, and the songs were written and recorded over the course of the past decade.
Speaking about the album, she shared, “When you’re young, you never know the endings. You don’t know how it’s going to pan out. You think, ‘We’re going to get beyond this. It’s going to get better.’ Some endings are hard to digest.”
Gibbons previously released a pair of collaboration albums: Out of Season with Rustin Man in 2002 and Henryk Górecki: Symphony No. 3 (Symphony of Sorrowful Songs) with the Polish National Radio Symphony Orchestra in 2019. Portishead’s last studio album was 2008’s Third.
In 2023, Portishead released a remastered and expanded edition of their live album Roseland NYC Live for its 25th anniversary. In May 2022, they reunited for their first live show in seven years. Now, Gibbons is gearing up for a string of dates in Europe, kicking off in Paris on May 27th.
