Dungen : Dungen

After gaining modest (if unanimous) acclaim for 2004's Ta Det Lungt, Swedish band Dungen's growing demand has led Subliminal Sounds to reissue their vinyl-only, limited-edition first record, a three-track disc of material recorded between 1999 and 2001, before the band's appeal breached Sweden's narrow borders. Whereas Ta Det Lungt revealed mastermind Gustav Ejstes as a pop songwriter of the first order, here he's a mad DJ let loose in the world's greatest classic radio station, spinning the dial each time his buzz wears off, landing each time on something new and weird and utterly wonderful. Subliminal. 2005.
