Dungen-Tio Bitar
Here's the new Dungen album, Tio Bitar, which isn't scheduled for release until May 1st. I can't seem to find a good image of the album artwork. sorry. I'm in love with the production on this record. It's like being wrapped up in a warm crepe. Or the Swedish equivalent. It's how your stomach feels after getting a smile from the crush you don't have the nerve to take off your headphones and talk to. Its something terrible making an awfully big, loud mess three doors down. It's the sound of fireworks a few miles away. Or the town next to you being shelled. And it compliments the endless barrage of hooks more so than on Ta Det Lugnt or Stadsvandringar. this is not to say that Tio Bitar is an immediate album. Like most of Dungen's catalog, it's a slow burn. Possibly even more than on previous efforts, the songs effectively, but almost imperceptibly seep into your brain. in such a way you won't begrudgingly be humming the melodies an hour after the record stops spinning. but maybe you'll be tapping your foot.
