Filed under: News , Exclusive Fans of Swedish psych-rock act Dungen can attest to the power of their live show. Frontman Gustav Ejstes's compositions are often long and winding, with his falsetto taking listeners into places that are often described as "epic" and "mind-blowing." You'd think that such accolades would surely make the decision to release a live album at some point inevitable, but don't expect one anytime soon. "The thing about playing live is you have to let it go. It's like a flow. You can't retake anything," Ejstes [...]

Tonight: Fleet Foxes & Dungen @ First Avenue

Frank Yang Would Robin Pecknold have a guitar strap? That was really the only burning question in my mind going into Tuesday night's Fleet Foxes show at Massey Hall in Toronto. The initial one when this show was first announced back in April - could this band who didn't even play to a full house at the El Mocambo last April in support of Blitzen Trapper now fill a venue as large and storied (to say nothing of expensive) as Massey Hall - was answered by the fact that [...]

Via MBV , un jam épico-psychédélique de 15 minutes tout droit sortie (ou presque) d'il y a 3 décennies, oeuvre des Suédois de Dungen . "Samtigit" était à l'origine apparu sur leur quatrième album, 4 (2008) , suos forme de deux extraits de 3 et 4 minutes et quelques, mais leur label ( Kemado ) a décidé à l'occasion de leur tournée de sortir la version intégrale dans une édition limitée à 500 exemplaires. Grandiose. [Pour écouter sans télécharger, allez visiter l'article] Tweet this post ___ Share on Facebook ___ [...]

Vuodesta 1971 alkaen järjestetty Ilosaarirock on oiva osoitus siitä, miten vuosien harjoittelu tuottaa tulosta. Allekirjoittanut otti osaa festivaaleihin yli viiden vuoden tauon jälkeen ja oli taas äimistynyt siitä, miten hyvin nämä kinkerit pystytään järjestämään. Olutalueita oli riittävästi, eivätkä janoiset joutuneet missään vaiheessa turhautumaan liian pitkien jonojen kanssa. Bajamajat tyhjennettiin niin usein, ettei omia terveisiä tarvinnut asetella tetrismäisesti edellisten viereen. Omat alkoholit sai jättää ilmaiseen viinanarikkaan, josta niitä saattoi käydä tissuttelemassa päivän mittaan, jos ikä ei riittänyt anniskelualueelle (nuorisoakin pitää ajatella). Kaikki tämä hyvin mitetitty suunnittelu yhdistettynä täydelliseen pussikaljakeliin johti siihen, että vaikka festivaalialuetta mittaili luvaton määrä [...]
from Science Digest , July 1980: "The facts are simple," says Charles K. Johnson , president of the International Flat Earth Research Society. "The earth is flat." As you stand in his front yard, it is hard to argue the point. From among the Joshua trees, creosote bushes, and tumbleweeds surrounding his southern California hillside home, you have a spectacular view of the Mojave Desert. It looks as flat as a pool table. Nearly 20 miles to the west lies the small city of Lancaster; you can see [...]

Filed under: Concerts and Tours , News , Exclusive This summer, Swedish indie faves Dungen will finally return to North America, but they're not planning to storm the continent with a new product, per se. The band is technically still touring behind '4,' the album they released nearly a year ago, but it's been three times that long since Dungen trekked across these shores. "The tours and shows have never felt like promotional work, besides obvious stuff like radio shows and in-stores," bandleader Gustav Ejstes tells [...]
The Faint , Nortec Collective Bostich + Fussible , and Dungen are the latest addition to the lineup for San Diego's forthcoming Street Scene festival . The two-day bash is set to take place August 28 and 29 in downtown San Diego. The new additions join previously announced acts including The Dead Weather , M.I.A., and Of Montreal . Street Scene
Frightened Rabbit (SCO) Friday 03.07.09 - 19:00 - Pavilion Frightened Rabbit is not easy to put in a box. Their latest album span from interpretations of bluegrass, over alt. folk to uptempo pop songs. A pretty weird mix, but somehow Frightened Rabbit pulled it off, and Midnight Organ Fight became one of the absolute best albums last year. Now we get the chance to see Frightened Rabbit live in Denmark. Last time they should have played here (at Loppen in october) the concert was cancelled. It's really [...]
Swedish psychedelic. Fresh. Dungen - Fredag
Dungen is heading out on the road with Fleet Foxes, Woods, and Kurt Vile. I've never been crazy about the Swedish band, but the fact that they are coming back to the states is always big news. Their last record, 4 was released in 2008 on Kemado Records. As previously reported, they'll be swinging by The Bell House in Brooklyn with Woods on August 14, but all the tour dates are listed below. Dungen tour dates : All dates marked * w/ Fleet Foxes All dates marked + w/ Woods [...]
Brooklyn's Woods have joined up with Kurt Vile and Swedish psych stars Dungen for a tour we're just going to call A Bunch of Great Bands on One Stage Tour 2009. In addition to the aforementioned trio of excellence, select dates will feature Grooms, Wavves, Real Estate and Popo. Other potential tour highlights include a stop in Big Sur (peyote optional) and a tour-closing date in Seattle, which seems pretty fitting considering all these guys clearly owe a debt to '90s Northwest rock. 07-04 [...]
As Woods set their sights on touring, their hometown of New York City get a pretty good chunk of dates out of the deal. The band play a wide diversity of venues including 979 Broadway Backyard (July 4), the legendary Bowery Ballroom (July 15), the Cameo Gallery (July 16), the Whitney Museum (July 24), and Gowanus neighborhood's Bell House (August 14). Of course, their tour gets them many other places as well. We've got them all listed after the jump. Woods tour dates : 07-04 Brooklyn, NY - 979 Broadway Backyard (Woodsist/Captured Tracks Festival) [...]
