Stripes, a beard, and solid gold shizzatch.

Music In The Video
Satanic Satanist
Artist: Portugal. The Man
Album: Satanic Satanist
Song: Guns & Dogs

About a year ago, while spinning tunes on Blip.fm I came across the band Portugal. The Man, and was hooked. The song in the video is off their 2009 album The Satanic Satanist. If you haven’t seen these guys play yet it probably won’t be long before you get the chance. They’re one of those bands out there making it happen with a steady stream of tour dates and a flow of new music. Their latest album American Ghetto, released earlier this year on Atlantic Records, is another solid addition to their already stellar discography.

The song in the video, “Guns & Dogs”, along with the rest of the Portugal The Man discography is available on iTunes here. Get latest news and goodness on Portugal. The Man at there official website here.
