Update: Portishead have released their “SOS” cover in full, with a music video. Watch below.
Trip-hop mainstays Portishead haven’t released an album since 2008’s Third, but last year they announced plans to contribute a cover of ABBA’s “SOS” to a Tom Hiddleston thriller called High-Rise. Now, the cover itself has surfaced on SoundCloud. Like the majority of the U.K. quartet’s work, “SOS” is a murky, unsettling electronic anthem that sonically reflects the original’s mournful lyrics about lost love. Listen below, and watch the High-Rise trailer while you’re at it.
