Show: Dungen Front man Gustav Ejstes “seems to have found the sweet spot between his experimental tendencies and his innate shredditude, and much of Skit I Allt—like the opening track ‘Vara Snabb,’ which bounces happily between stoned-sounding hippie jazz and even more stoned-sounding fuzz-rock—satisfies on both counts,” writes Miles Raymer.
