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:
If his patience had its way with that lie I caught him in
Would they send him back to Texas; weathered face and crooked grin
Where they sing, "Eeee." Oh!
Climbs up to the next seat and onto the roots
Drinking up the village
And, drinking a little more
Eeee. Oh!
Found you the bed with a hammer by your side
Sleeping out the day
Well, it's pounding on your head
Where they sing, "Eeee." Oh!
There's movement in the air
Just above the neck
Bodies overturned
And it's been like this for days
Well, they sing, "Eeee." Oh!
Devil had its way with that lie I caught him in, would they send you back, send you back, send you back?

this is international! love seeing all the comments from across the globe
Time to take a step back.
Hello from St-Petersburg, Russia!
I saw these guys in 2006 with The Matches in Chicago at the Beat Kitchen and they instantly became one of my favorite bands. They played Chicago with these animal masks on and a strobe light. It was a tiny club. They tore it down. Then they got huge a few years later.
Still love The Pines.
Gotta miss those simpler days love y’all!
I'm from Oregon City and I've never seen this before! Love them!!
Love from Bulgaria, you guys are the best!
Um pequeno olá do Brasil.
Esse som é fantástico o/
Vocês são fantásticos.
Early sounds! Thanks for the complete story in the description. Miss the shows! I love the early days.
Took me a sec but SO glad you took this song somewhere and didnt just end before the song breaks. Nice electric Beast btw

Kodiak here - Loving this!!
DFW TX , Love y'all forever
This jam rocks. Dig the vibe. Cool track.
Love Portugal The Man, definitely love the old albums more than their recent stuff. I feel after Ryan Neighbors left it changed something in the band. It's cool there's something out there during the days that Ryan was in the band. (for those who don't know, Ryan used to do the Keyboards and Synths)
Wow, when was it?? 10 years ago?? I really love see the old gold PTM
They were the best back then!
recorded in December 2008

The 7 thumbs downers can never say they liked PTM before they sold out.
Yea, I wish they'd return to this era. I saw them in 2010 or 2011 with this lineup plus another guitarist and it was an amazing show.
@@seananderson5334 always moving forward but occasionally revisting the past
Their album Got It All is my fave. It had a sound and mood that was uniquely theirs and it connected with me deeply. Watching this actually makes me feel that raw, unapologetic and creative energy from back then. More of this please.
Awesome
I love PTM❤️ 🇵🇪 Perú
Flawless 💯
Fairbanks Alaska checking in.
Hope one day I’ll visit your city :) after anchorage of course
From Richmond Va
Ah yes.....i remember the days before this band turned into a one hit wonder to most people. Before Danger Mouse made every album sound like the last.
yeah they used to be sooo damn good
@@GeistMeister those early albums were the best. I think Satanic Satanist was the peak for me and they've been slowly going downhill since. Having said that, In The Mountain is a solid enough entry. Still too much Danger Mouse influence over the years. That guy only knows how to produce one type of sound and its getting so old now.
@@kpskips i still think they make really good music, their style has changed hes, but it still feels like their own style, i would list it as portugal the man pre-evil friends and post-evil friends, because that album to me feels like the middleground between the two tyles, and well, so far they're looking pretty good with most woodstock album songs, the what me worry? single and evil friends itself, even heavy games, that song they made for the walking dead, i will not lose hope on them
This kind of has a Church Mouth vibe to it?! A bit bluesy, experimental, slightly psychedelic. Super excited, it’s been 4 years! I remember having to wait that long for Woodstock!
You’re one of my favourite bands and got me out of a really nasty place in my life, Sleep Forever saved me ❤️ I owe you so much.
I’ll make sure to do a cover of it and Modern Jesus on my channel 👍👍
this song was written right before Church Mouth
@@Portugal.TheMan that’s awesome! Super excited to hear any new material from you guys, you’re genuinely one of the most versatile bands around. Once things settle down here in the U.K. I’ll be doing a cover of one of your songs at a gig 😊 Sea of Air perhaps hmmm. Anyway, thanks for the reply 👍
Saludos desde Mexico🤠🇲🇽
Saludos desde Querétaro ✌️🇲🇽

When will the rest of the session be released?
Wow
🔥
Release more!

Today I searched for your Oregon sessions version if "My mind" and i couldn't find it :(
patience my friend
Y’all are so darn cool
Is this full video available somewhere for purchase?
Lovin the look, are they lockdown locks?
this recording is from 2008! a simpler time, lol
Anatomy of a Ghost
I'd kill for some old sessions. Glad someone else remembers.
Yoooo
Don't know where else to ask this: but does anyone know why in album Church Mouth, the song Sun Brother is an exerp and not the full version?
When is their new album coming out?
when we finish it?
@@Portugal.TheMan Touché.
🇺🇦👏👏👏👏👏
Very bluesy
we miss ptm :((
Here's an idea if you like epic music. 💡
You need to listen to Mötley Crüe! They are epic and they have the best drummer ever! HE CAN EVEN PLAY UPSIDE DOWN!!! Look up Kickstart My Heart, Dr. Feelgood, Home Sweet Home, Primal Scream, the albums Too Fast For Love, Shout At the Devil, Dr. Feelgood, and Tommy's drum solos. You won't regret it
