Throwback Thursday - Portugal. The Man

June 12, 2014

A year ago this week we added the critically acclaimed release from alternative rockers, Portugal. The Man, Evil Friends.

Quintet, formed in Wasilla AK and now residing in Portland OR., carry on with their 8th studio release and first with producer Danger Mouse. Big, dramatic, fast paced, grim and gloomy.

Portugal. The Man will be touring later this year, and Quick read more or view full article
