The lyrics within Dungen'sTa det Lugntoffer no profound personal introspection, colorful metaphors or soul-challenging wisdom to the monolingual English-speaking population. Indeed, without singing a single word of discernable English, Dungen makes ...more
The Austin Chronicle
There's a Swedish proverb that says, "Wisdom is in the head and not in the beard." This adage applies to Dungen, a band that plays like the past 25 years never happened.Ta Det Lugnt("take it easy"), the band's third album, grows from the ...more

An exceedingly triumphant psych-pop oddity.... I doubt 2004 will birth a more blissful sonic encounter than Ta Det Lugnt. ...more
Pitch Fork Media

Billboard
With the sonic reach of Pink Floyd and convincing, explosive pop in the vein of Rogue Wave and the Apples in Stereo, "Ta Det Lugnt" is thick with variety. ...more

Here are some things you might not know about Dungen. Dungen is apparently Swedish for clump of trees , not dungeon , though 'Dungen' sounds much more like dungeon than it does clump of trees. If you're listening with English ears. Here's ...more

Austin Chronicle
It sounds unfiltered, raw, and rough, and the quartet's mixture of guitar, organ, fiddle, percussion, and flute (Jethro Tull in the house) makes it all the more authentic. ...more
