Post Portugal. The Man
My apologies if I've already made this thread. This is probably one of the best bands in America playing today.

Also here's the leak of their most recent album which is amazing:

What do you think?

Oooh, Salt is kicking ass right now. Further listening, starting from New Orleans, the second half really stood out for me. Good sound, I'll give it a better listen soon. :groovin:

Yeah, after about seven listens to the album Salt might be my favorite track.

But I also like New Orleans, 1989 (Jesus I was born in 1988 but I just feel what he is singing about in this song all too well, speaks to the generation), Lay Me Back Down, Colors, And I (they played this live), and Never Pleased.

I liked Created a lot more when I first heard it, because I didn't realize how short it is, but I still like it.

Ok so, it looks like Portugal's gotten a bit bigger now, t's kinda cool. I've seen them go from a band playing sets at seedy venues that ended up being cut short due to faulty equipment to... well:

Hope they come back to Portland sometime, haha.

I saw them here in Jacksonville, Florida when I was in highschool. They played in the most notorious, sketch-fest venue in our city, The Pit. They really have come a long way.
