While
Tio Bitar saw
Gustav Ejstes relinquishing some of
Dungen's instrumental duties to other musicians, specifically guitarist
Reine Fiske,
4 is the closest he's come to employing a full-time band. The frontman confines himself to the piano and microphone this time around, only taking occasional stabs at flute and violin, while bassist
Mattias Gustavsson and drummer
Johan Holmegard join
Fiske in creating
Dungen's sonic sprawl. As before, the band brews up a mix of psychedelic rock, free jazz, and other vintage genres associated with mind expansion and counterculture ideals. The folk influence that peppered earlier releases isn't as prominent here, though, with a new emphasis on piano taking its place. That instrument lends softer textures to several songs, especially when combined with washes of woodwinds and strings.
