Vidrig Var, the new album from Dungen, is an open and intimate exploration of the end of a long-term relationship.
"De flesta sager det tar minst ett ar, jag horde nagon som vanta tre Det bara pagar i mig dag efter dag, allt jag gor blir fel"
"Most say it takes at least a year, I heard of someone who waited three It just keeps going in me day after day, all I do goes wrong"
This year marks 25 years since the release of the band's self- titled debut, and four years since their previous album 'En Ar For Mycket Och Tusen Aldrig Nog'.
Despite lyrics in Swedish, their hybrid of psych, folk and pop has won them a substantial international audience, stars like Jack White, Tame Impala and Fleet Foxes among them.Dungen consists of Gustav Ejstes, Reine Fiske (guitar), Mattias Gustavsson (bass) and Johan Holmegard (drums). Vidrig Var is produced by frontman Ejstes and go-to producer Mattias Glava.
Breaking internationally with their cult classic Ta det lungt, Dungen have been a staple of modern psych-rock for over two decades. Their fans include Tame Impala's Kevin Parker (who actually requested the group mix his first record), and their influence has been enormous for a group that performs primarily in Swedish. Vidrig Var is their 12th album, not counting several instrumental and live releases. Drawing inspiration from the terrible spring of the title, the band pushes their sound in interesting new directions. The steadily transforming stretch of "En Gang I Timmen" melds flutes with overdriven guitars and a deep bass pulse, while "Djurgarn" pairs singer Gustav Ejstes' intimate vocals with tambourines and a contrapunctal woodwind line, a stripped down but exceedingly beautiful snapshot of the band's sound.
