I'd like to know the name of this font. It was used in the debut album of british 'trip hop' band, Portishead. If you can identify or guess the font, i would be so glad...

|PORTISHEAD| appears to be Helvetica Ultra Compressed (with a bit of extra compressing):

Someone went to the trouble of turning it into a typeface:
