the works

A new and fantastic, and truly psychedelic, Swedish band: The Works. Closely linked with Dungen, as their lead singer and guitarist Andreas handled the bass playing for Dungen on their latest NYC trip, and several Dungen members guest the Works debut album. The Works from Stockholm come over like young goggle-eyed virtuosos from some weird Scandinavian conservatoire. How apt then that lead singer/guitarist Andreas began The Works with rhythm guitarist Martin while both were attending the Stockholm School of Music. Six years later they've consolidated a quintet, all of whom are individually singer/songwriters who play many instruments. Musically they're saturated in many influences and yet there's something much bigger in there. The Works are transcending their influences, becoming more themselves and no one else. Take the Nordic acid test and jack up on The Works. Sales and marketing bullets: Features members from Dungen The new release from the label who released Dungens "Ta det lugnt". The best new young Swedish psych band."
