Portugal. The Man's new album, The Satanic Satanist, revels in old-school LP-art lavishness. With packaging this elaborate and cool, we don't even care if the music's not worthwhile. But from what I've heard by Portugal. The Man, they make pretty compelling, widescreen neo-prog rock and Beatlesque pop, full of passion and hooks. But even if that's not your thing, you may want to splurge on this deluxe item. It's kind of a conversation-starter and destined to be the center of attention at any party.
