The band achieved international recognition through the inclusion of the track 2Wicky (from A New Stereophonic Sound Spectacular) on the soundtrack to Bernardo Bertolucci’s 1996 film Stealing Beauty (Io Ballo da Sola).
The original members of the group were vocalist Liesje Sadonius, keyboardist Frank Duchêne, bass guitarist and programmer Alex Callier, and guitarist Raymond Geerts. Sadonius left Hooverphonic on amicable terms shortly after the release of A New Stereophonic Sound Spectacular and was replaced by Geike Arnaert in early 1998. Duchêne left the band after Blue Wonder Power Milk.
Hooverphonic released their fifth studio album No More Sweet Music in November 2005, featuring four singles:
Hooverphonic released their latest album The President of the LSD Golf Club on 8th October 2007 in Belgium and Holland, which includes the single Expedition Impossible. European Release January 2008 (although available via mail-order). This will be an independent release, recorded at the Willie Nelson studios in the USA. It’s unclear if the January release will include a North American release.

MaDSoul, i agree with You. Portishead has some nice songs but that's all about them. Hooverphonics have something very special in their style

portishead is more boring then hooverphonic. i cant really see whats so interesting about portishead myself. only some songs captures me. hooverphonics first and second album is far better then anything portishead has made in my opinion.

I think Portishead's songs are all unique and interesting. But, Hooverphonic's are more varied.

Portishead is trip-hop by jaded brits. Hooverphonic is down-tempo pop by slightly happier belgians. Also, as far as memory serves, Hooverphonic doesn't use scratching as a major sonic tool in any song, while Portishead does in almost every song. Hence the trip-hop label. I wouldn't say they're boring, but they are best listened to when one is in the appropriate mood. They have their merits. Reniassance Affair is Hooverphonic at their most sublime. Very seductive.
