From Sneak Attack
4 is the brilliant new studio album from Sweden's Dungen. Lead by frontman Gustav Ejstes, 4 focuses on the extremes of Dungen's sound separated into two entities. Blazing, raw guitar workouts have their own time and place, but now, with Ejstes bringing the piano forward as the lead instrument, stirringly orchestrated, jazz-cooled compositions swirl alongside cinematic undertones -- kinda like a psychedelic love story. While Ejstes is the principle songwriter in the studio, Dungen performs as a four piece on the road, with a line-up rounded out by new drummer Johan Holmegard, guitarist Reine Fiske and bassist Mattias Gustavsson. Dungen kicks off their upcoming tour with a performance at Kemado's Official CMJ Showcase this October and wraps up a few weeks later on the left coast. ___________________________________________________ Dungen Tour Dates October 24 - Brooklyn, NY - Music Hall of Williamsburg (Kemado/CMJ) October 27 - Hoboken, NJ - Maxwell's October 28 - Philadelphia, PA - Johnny Brenda's October 30 - Boston, MA - Great Scott October 31 - Toronto, ONT - Horseshoe Tavern November 1 - Ann Arbor, MI - Blind Pig November 2 - Chicago, IL - Bottom Lounge November 4 - Minneapolis, MN 400 Bar November 7 - Seattle, WA - Chop Suey November 8 - Portland, OR - Doug Fir November 10 - San Francisco, CA - Bottom of the Hill November 11 - Visalia, CA - Cellar Door November 12 - Los Angeles, CA - The Echo ___________________________________________________ Official Dungen website Kemado Records Myspace Imeem |
