Description
The quick drum stutter before the first chorus of Dummy snaps the groove into focus, and Portugal. The Man ride it for three minutes of sly, singable psych-pop. Chris Black Changed My Life is their most direct set since Woodstock, dedicated to their late friend and packed with hooks that still leave enough room for texture. This LP pressing does right by the rhythm section; low end sits deeper and the imaging feels tighter, so the backing vocals and keys sit in a clear pocket.
Dummy is the entry point, but Champ pushes harder, with fuzzy guitars and a punchy refrain that lands on first spin. Sequencing stays lean, no filler, just a confident band trimming the fat and aiming for replay value.
If you would rather order from home, you can buy Portugal. The Man records online with us.
File it next to Tame Impala, though these songs are less dreamy and more to the point. Fans who came in on Feel It Still will find the same knack for economy, only with a warmer, more human core. The inner sleeve notes give the album’s dedication context without getting heavy-handed. Great for a late drive or a tidy-up soundtrack, it holds up front to back.
Available online now or in our Melbourne shop, an easy pick for any Portugal. The Man fan.
