December 4, 2008
Portugal. The Man had been a band for just over 2 years and in that period, they had released 3 full-lengths, 1 EP, and a couple standalone singles. In that same period, they had also performed just shy of 500 shows. This young band from Alaska was riding a creative wave that is rarely scene coupled with the most hardcore work ethic. Alaskan are tough and this band was tougher.
Driving from city to city, buying bulk bags of rice and a couple times a week splurging with some items with their Taco Bell - Feed The Beat bucks, PTM was committed. They ended tour in December of 2008 and instead of taking a much-needed break made the decision that they needed to record the culmination of what their live performance had become. Finding a rare gem of a studio in the suburbs of Portland. They piled in to the studio with all their live gear and a handful of friends with handheld cameras. Longtime collaborator and filmmaker Graham (Baclagon) Agcaolli and engineer/mixer Jacob Portrait (who would later join Unknown Mortal Orchestra) would help to document.
Run the full set, one time through. No re-takes. No overdubs. Just the band in its natural form.
What next? In typical PTM fashion they were heading into the studio a couple weeks later to record their next album “The Satanic Satanist” and “Oregon City Sessions” got put on a shelf. Why release old music when you can release new music. There it sat for over a decade. A select few saw the full film. The band, their manager or tour manager would occasionally offer to go over to people’s homes screen it for them. Sometimes in the parking lot the band would screen a handful of songs to the local supporters. They forged friendships but whenever asked the answer would always be “yeah, we will release that at some point”.
2021. The band has been off the road for well over a year, by far the longest break from the road since they started and the time just seems right. Here is “Oregon City Sessions” dug out of the archives. Untouched, unchanged from the day it was finished. It is a time capsule of a band finding its way. A snapshot of young raw talent before they won awards, before they sold millions of records, before they headlined festivals. Just a couple kids from Alaska wanting to travel the world and play music

Lyrics:
I was born in nineteen eighty-nine
All we could do
No shakes or coughs or burst relief
Or lists of all our things
Just minutes making minds
I was born in nineteen eighty-nine
All we could do
But the making never made
The comers never came
But I still felt the awful news
It was patience that we had
And the miles we had left
That held us there
Until we could let go
I was born in nineteen eighty-nine
And itll be over soon
No moon children or peoples sun
Or ringing in my ears
When I felt that awful news
But we found that we were always lost... in space
And we will never find our way
We felt that we would always find our way
If our minds ever come around
I was born in nineteen eighty-nine
All we could do
Not in birth or body
But only in our minds
I was shaking to through my eyes
And living through each breath
I still felt that awful news

Lyrics:
Billy and Jimmy gonna
Give me the spotlight
While I peel my face off the floor
Blessed in silence
Waiting for more
Stand by me
Stand by me
Stand by me
Stand by me
Killing the villain
gonna dance in the moonlight
Injecting a spirit so pure
Blessed in silence
Waiting for more
Stand by me
Stand by me
Stand by me
Stand by me
Living to die
Living to die
Turn off the light
Break the key off in the door
Our history of violence
Is the prophet of war
Don’t remind me
(Of all my mistakes)
Don’t remind me
Don’t remind me
(Oh how my heart breaks)
Don’t remind me
(Edgar Winter)
Why am I fighting to live
If I’m just living to fight
Why am I trying to see
When there ain’t nothing in sight
Why am I trying to give
When no one gives me a try
Why am I dying to live
If I’m just living to die
(With War)
Abolish Borders
Abolish Ice
Abolish all systems that keep Indigenous Peoples from their natural migrations.
Indigenous Peoples take back what’s yours

Lyric:
I can see it in your eyes
See it in your face
Bangin on your chest
Actin tough, lookin unfazed
Trippin over landlines
Cuttin deep with a dull blade
Running out of unrest
Goin out of your mind
Lonely days will follow, days will follow
Days will follow
Hit me like a tidal wave
Triggered by the aftershock
Hit me like a tidal wave
Triggered by the aftershock
Hit me like a tidal wave
Triggered by the aftershock
Hit me like a tidal wave
Triggered by the aftershock
Im triggered by the aftershock
Kids are pullin triggers, that shit hasnt stopped
And senators on Twitter gettin triggered by young Mr. Hogg
And Ms. Gonzalez
While they mislead the flock
Welcome to the United States
Of do whatever the fuck you want
Well do whatever the fuck you want
Oh, well that is
That is as long as youre white and important
I want to slap a couple Nazis with the Lords of Portland
(Hit me like a tidal wave)
And film it on a super eight recorder
That film would be supremely gorgeous
Buncha cry-baby dorkuses
Angry over monuments to losers lighting tiki torches
And fear will never hold progress back
When the tidal wave of love comes remember that
Hit me like a tidal wave
Triggered by the aftershock
Hit me like a tidal wave
Triggered by the aftershock
Hit me like a tidal wave
Triggered by the aftershock
(Aftershock, the aftershock)
(Triggered by the aftershock)
Lonely days will follow, days will follow
Days will follow (x4)
Stop with all the nonsense
Lots of brazen lies because youre godless
Just a way to say youre doing something, then you break your promise
Lonely days will follow
And now we know your words are hollow

Portugal. The Man took 2017 by the horns after a considerably long gap, between records. They spent years working on an album called Gloomin + Doomin before later developing what would become known as their latest studio album WOODSTOCK. Fate struck lead singer, John Gourley, twice. First, John got some parental tough love from his old man. “What’s taking so long to finish the album?,” John’s dad asked. “Isn’t that what bands do? Write songs and then put them out?” The whole thing got 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, John found his dad’s ticket stub from the original 1969 Woodstock music festival, which ultimately knocked something loose in his 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 threw it out. The band went back to the studio – working with John Hill, Danger Mouse and longtime collaborator Casey Bates. In this new-found creative territory, the album that became WOODSTOCK rolled out naturally from there. Fast forward to present day and it was impossible to escape the album’s first single “Feel It Still,” which dominated the charts and radio airwaves in 2017. The 6X Platinum Certified hit reigned at #1 at nearly all radio formats, including Top 40, as well as Alternative, where the song held the chart’s top spot for a mind-blowing 20 weeks, breaking the record for most weeks at #1. Yes, you read that right. 5 guys from Wasilla, Alaska who have played nearly 1,500 shows in their career broke Alternative radio records and had a #1 song at Pop radio. Billboard Magazine even went as far as to call the song, “the unexpected rock crossover hit of 2017,” while Rolling Stone listed it as “one of the best songs of 2017.” AND THEN…the band kicked off 2018 by winning a GRAMMY Award for “Feel It Still.” WOODSTOCK has since been certified gold, as has their second single “Live In The Moment”.
