Would be interested to know if any of you reading this from across the ditch have any experience seeing these guys live?

There's your chance man, if you do go let us know. I'd be keen to see them if someone got them over here

I saw Portal in Canberra at Metal for the Brain 2005 (Along with Gospel of the Horns, Astriaal, Pod People all for the first time)..

Keen to see them now....with "The Curator' (Heh). Ulcerate are playing with them in Aussie next Feb so might go and check it out..

OH these guys, I've come across them before somewhere but forgot what they were called, just been calling them "the band that wears stuff over their heads". Not my cup of tea, but I don't care, the guy wears a fucking clock on his head!

Honestly, I don't see what the big deal is
I've seen them live but was disappointed, and found most of their antics (such as clockheads) laughable most of the time

Having said that I'll definitely see them again, I'm sure I could get more out of it if I was in the mood.

Portal Live Vid:

Hahaha saw this also:

I remember there was a video where The Curator says "Silence!" to the crowd and some dude says something like "No!" I can't remember what song it was or anything and I don't feel like looking...but I laughed.

Must find.

Have managed to get my hands on Swarth and Outre, and copied Seepia from my mate (will buy, just need to find it) - every listen kind of clarifies their seething mass. So strange and good

Too many guitar strings, too many clocks on heads.
