Transparent Green Vinyl Limited to 200 Hand Numbered Copies

July was a pretty lean month in new releases but one did slip in on the last day of the month without much fanfare. Again, it's from another band from Sweden's Kungens Män. They released an album called "Dag & Natt" meaning 'day and night'. I believe it is a bit of a concept album with music suiting different times of the day. The vinyl is on route as I speak so I can't enlighten you on how brilliant it is. Instead, I thought I'd show you their previous two album instead to give you an idea of the sound they produce.


Kungens Män (Kings Man) formed as a band in 2012 and to date have  released 2 LPs along with a host of other material on their Bandcamp page.  The first of these two albums is Förnekaren released in 2015 on Adansonia Records. It was released on CD, black and limited green transparent vinyl. They have been described as experimental drone,, improvised music kraut rock, psychedelic rock & space rock. Here is the album in full for your ear pleasure.

Limited To 200 On Yellow Vinyl

Their second album titled Stockholm Maraton was released in 2016 also on Adansonia Records. This was the album that got me interested in the band, full of great songs over a double lp. Again like the previous album, it was released on CD, black, yellow and limited tricolour vinyl.

If the new one is anywhere as good as this one, we are in for a real treat!
