    Definitely Portishead. Not a big fan of the Yeah Yeah Yeahs. Although I only know a couple songs from Portishead.

    Although I have liked Portishead for longer, I would have to say Yeah Yeah Yeahs just because I still cannot stop listening to their last LP 'It's Blitz'. Karen's voice is so original :)

    Goonith knows what's up -- Beth has a sexy *** voice. Portishead is my choice.

    But, "Maps" is a brilliant song, and I could make a case for The Yeah Yeah Yeah's on that song alone.

    Portishead. I've only heard them maybe once or twice before, but those links were fabulous. I'll have to check out more of their stuff. I love the YYYs, too. =)

    Portishead is good for chilling, YYY's are good for dancing.

    I'd choose YYY's.
