Machine gun is their only song I genuinely enjoy.

Their three albums got lots of love on RYM.
Anywhere else they're just there, that band with a pair of hits.

They got overshadowed by massive attack maybe

Rightfully, too. Portishead is all right but Massive Attack are a league or two above.
I actually like third more than their other two albums, but I wouldn't tell someon to listen to it first if they've never heard Portishead before, it's a pretty weird album

They were huge for a while in the mid-90s (back before MTV stopped showing music videos).
Still good music.

I love Portishead, Third is probably my least favourite of their albums though.
the new cover of ABBA's SOS is so good. https://soundcloud.com/michael-gostev/portishead-sos

Underrated? What?! Maybe kids aren't familiar with their music, but people who were adults during their heyday tend to love them to this very day.
