Following various collabs and other minor releases, Alaska-based band Portugal. The Man are finally following up 2017's album 'Woodstock' this year - and the lead single is out on February 9th! Of course, their last album spawned the massive massive single 'Feel It Still', I wouldn't expect that to happen again! :lol: But that one had a lot of other good tunes on it as well, so I am very optimistic.

Im sure they can return with good music, even if it might not be a hit

Oh absolutely. It's a shame 'Live For the Moment' never got pushed over here! I believe it did in the US though.

when indie bands have a huge hit like Feel it Still, having a follow-up hit single is hard cos people get stuck with the hit and don't move on

think Live for the Moment was definitely a single everywhere, I remember they performed it at some of those US talk shows and I also remember it having a video

 

And here it is! Sounding really good on first listen
