As it had been seven years since Dungen’s last proper record, 2015’s Allas Sak, you would be forgiven if (like me) you had forgotten about the Swedish psych maestros. Fortunately, the band has seemingly never allowed the dust to settle. The album, whose title translates to “one is too much and a thousand is never enough,” is perhaps the best record the group has made since 2004’s breakout, Ta det lugnt. While it exhibits all the lysergic earmarks of the Dungen oeuvre, it also is infused with a good deal of inventiveness as well as a healthy dose of pop smarts. Leadoff single “Nattens Sistat Strimma Ljus” (‘the night’s last shimmer of light’) is lead by a phased guitar line and a shuffling beat, the combination of the two potent enough to be addictive as any mind-altering substance. Meanwhile, “Höstens Färger” could be The Beatles had they sung in Swedish, piano and guitars melding into what can only be described as a pop song—and a brilliant one at that. Dungen has seemingly pushed itself outside of its own comfort zone, and we are lucky enough to reap the rewards.
