Description
Named for their late friend Chris Black, Portugal. The Man’s Chris Black Changed My Life trims the fat and leans into crisp, singable psych-pop. Dummy’s chorus glides from rueful to buoyant in a breath; it’s the little left-turn that keeps you coming back. Champ hits harder than you expect, the drum break snapping clean, while Summer of Luv sways with a woozy, sun-faded charm.
This purple vinyl pressing gives the music more room to bloom, and the low end sits deeper without muddying the vocals. Artwork pops nicely, too, which suits the album’s warm, neon palette.
You can buy Portugal. The Man records online with us if you’d prefer a simple checkout. Spinning it at a small party works a treat, but it’s just as good for a late kitchen tidy when you want hooks without the hangover. If your shelf runs through Tame Impala’s sleek psych era, this slots in naturally, but Portugal. The Man keep the edges playful and slightly weirder.
Standout moment for headphone listens: the backing vocal stack in Dummy quietly lifts the last chorus, and you feel the mix open around it. It’s a tight, purposeful set from a band who know exactly where their sweet spot lives.
Available to buy online with quick delivery Australia wide, or pick it up in our Melbourne record store.
