Let’s start this week off right with Swedish singer songwriter Dennis Augustsson. And with singer songwriter I’m not referring to the folky kind. His new record Under is very much an electric project, and I have to assume Augustsson prefers Thunders & Westerberg over Simon & Garfunkel.
Under feels like a punk record. It’s full of attitude, energy and emotion and a lot of that comes from the voice of Augustsson. Sonically, it’s all over the place and some of the slower songs won’t be for everyone. But, Augustsson knows how to write a hook, and the best songs on Under are something special. Listen to Flottigt Hårs Historia for example, which sounds like a classic punk track from the late ’70s. Allting kvar, Så länge vi är vi, Blanka blad, and Det brinner en eld also standout.
Under is available for streaming now. Want to get in touch with Dennis Augustsson? Find him on FB or Instagram.
Add to wantlist: Ehm…streaming only for now I guess
