Dungen - Tio Bitar (2007)


[Psychedelic/Rock]

If you listened to this album without knowing anything about the band, you could pretty much pinpoint it's release around the late 60's and early 70's, and in part that is one of the most interesting things about it. Considering it was released in 2007.

Hailing from sweeden, Dungen play psychedelic rock, and do it so well that you can sometimes forget that you're listening to a relatively new band. The last track on the album, for example, is totally reminiscent of early Pink Floyd, especially around their Ummagumma phase. The vocals, on the other hand, sound like a sweedish George Harrisson, but with their own spice.

Very, very interesting band, and something Classic rock fans, as well as indie rock fans should definitely check out. It's very melodic, with roaring guitar solos and thundering drums that sound almost Bonham-ish...


Bottom line, It's technical, it's catchy, and it's amazing.

Get it... Seriously. Like now.
