I'm looking for any relatively new bands/artists that sound like Portishead. Signed or unsigned - any recommendations?

In the song "Sour Times" by Portishead, there is a bizarre stringed instrument with percussive elements in the background. I'm having a heck of a time figuring out what it is. [more inside]

Was there a Portishead remix of DJ Shadow's Midnight in a Perfect World? [more inside]

Trip Hop (or downtempo or whatever): I love Tricky, Massive Attack, Hooverphonic, Portishead, Laika, Lamb, Sneaker Pimps, Martina, etc. What other, new acts have a similar sort of dark, humid and metallic aftertaste?
