In an effort to try and stay current on new music, I'm going to be doing a quasi-album review each Friday. The review will basically be related to a new album that dropped within the last week or two. So stay tuned for the first review coming tomorrow (I hope).
Also, I'll be attending a Portugal. The Man concert at The Fillmore in San Francisco tomorrow night. For those who have never heard of this band, consider giving them a shot. They're incredibly talented songwriters and put on a great live show as well. They have a new album coming out in July, which will no doubt be subject to a future Friday album review. I'll leave you with this little nugget from their first album.
Portugal. The Man - "AKA M80 the Wolf"
I'm really looking forward to the show tomorrow, since the Fillmore is one of the more legendary concert venues in the US, or at least on the West Coast. Either way, they have pictures hanging on all the walls of all of the great musicians that have played there in the past (Hendrix, Led Zeppelin, Janis Joplin, etc.). Basically, anyone who has ever made it big in music has played at the Fillmore at some point in their lives.
You know it's legit when you have the check-cashing store on the street level.
