Dungen was initially sold to the alternative crowd as ‘Nordic psychedelic rock’. On the earlier Dungen albums, that was accurate enough. Their 2004 album Ta Det Lugnt was their international breakthrough, and while it had a lot of Hendrix-style freak-outs, it was progressive around the edges thanks to a lush palette featuring keyboards, fiddle, and flute. Regardless of what the alternative press labels it, Dungen’s album 4 is Swedish progressive rock (which by any other name wouldn’t sound as sweet). Sung in Swedish but heavily instrumental, 4 has some psychedelic elements, but by and large this is pastoral, organic-sounding, 1970s-style prog dominated by piano, flute, and strings.
