Well, we’re two full months into 2017 and the world continues to burn like an avalanche of flaming biohazard material sliding down a mountain of used needles into a canyon full of rat feces. But hey, it’s not all bad: Portugal. The Man has a new album coming out called Woodstock. PTM’s last album came out over three years ago—a long gap for a band who’ve dropped roughly an album a year since 2006. And in true, prolific band fashion, they’ve spent almost every minute since 2013 working on an album called Gloomin + Doomin. They created a shit-ton of individual songs, but as a whole, none of them hung together in a way that felt right. Then John Gourley, PTM’s lead singer, made a trip home to Wasilla, Alaska, (Home of Portugal. The Man’s biggest fan, Sarah Palin) and two things happened that completely changed the album’s trajectory. First, John got some parental tough love from his old man, who called John on the proverbial carpet or dogsled or whatever you put people on when you want to yell at them in Alaska. “What’s taking so long to finish the album?” John’s dad said. “Isn’t that what bands do? Write songs and then put them out?” Like fathers and unlicensed therapists tend to do, John’s dad cut him deep. The whole thing started John thinking about why the band seemed to be stuck on a musical elliptical machine from hell and, more importantly, about how to get off of it. Second, fate stuck its wiener in John’s ear again when he found his dad’s ticket stub from the original 1969 Woodstock music festival. It seems like a small thing, but talking to his dad about Woodstock ’69 knocked something loose in John’s head. He realized that, in the same tradition of bands from that era, Portugal. The Man needed to speak out about the world crumbling around them. With these two ideas converging, the band made a seemingly bat-shit-crazy decision: they took all of the work they had done for the three years prior and they threw it out. It wasn’t easy and there was the constant threat that the band's record label might have them killed, but the totally insane decision paid off. With new, full-on, musical boners, the band went back to the studio—working with John Hill (In The Mountain In The Cloud), Danger Mouse (Evil Friends), Mike D (Everything Cool), and longtime collaborator Casey Bates (The one consistent producer since the first record). In this new-found creative territory, the album that became Woodstock rolled out naturally from there Remember that mountain of burning needles we were talking about? Good. Because Woodstock is an album (Including the new single “Feel It Still”) that—with optimism and heart—points at the giant pile and says, “Hey, this pile is fucked up!” And if you think that pile is fucked up too, you owe it to yourself—hell, to all of us—to get out there and do something about it.

Fun show but the song selection was suspect. The first 9 songs were all new and damn near had a NIN vibe going. Took too long to get the groove going but the second half was awesome. Fun band, cool vibe, lotsa womanly firepower.
Revolution Hall Portland, ORCongratulations to the state of ILLINOIS for mandating the teaching of Native American history in all public schools in this same day. I wouldn’t have known that if the band did not have the kind speaker come out before the show. Unforgettable. This band is incredible
Metro Chicago Chicago, ILPortugal. The man played really well live! It was a very good show, almost seemed like we were watching them jam in their garage, in a good way! I only wished they would've been able to play more songs.
The Factory In Deep Ellum Dallas, TXSuper musique, excellente salle et les effets lumineux étaient excellents. J’aime le groupe, mais la première partie m’a beaucoup déçu. La présence de Portugal sur scène n’était pas ce que j’aurais pensé... Un spectacle correct, mais rien de transcendant
MTELUS Montreal, CanadaThey’re so amazing live! I loved the Detroit throwbacks, the continuous flow from song to song, and Purple Yellow Red & Blue was the best song to end on. I can’t wait to see them again!
