Portugal The Man

these guys sound great and different; A band from 2004, Alaska US. (keep doing it!)
have deep commitment in stage.

The voices perfectly combine and there's room for more in what comes to creativity,
for what i've heard so far, originality comes from the natural sounds, so prefer the live shows;
The edited  late sound is more commercial, but that will always be the dilemma on a band, stick
to the original sound or step ahead to broader markets.

Instruments are coherent with attitude and bands philosophy...
keyboards not always fit in the live concert

Lyrics are true with band spirit, they are daring light (sometimes obvious)
but not too deep, no need for it, its meant for younger target. "could it be we've got lost in summer",  "we've got the whole world hanging there in our little sea of air"

so: long live Portugal. The Man,
