Well, Majestic people, we’re about to take you there.
Please ready yourselves for transportation to a completely different star system with Kungens Män's highly anticipated two part release, part one: “För samtida djur” (For Contemporary Animals).
“In February 2024, the first part of “För samtida djur” (For contemporary animals) will be released. It consists of eight songs of Kungens Män in their most condensed form, yet with a great degree of variation and some soundscapes previously unheard in our improvised world. The second part which comes out in May, is a more classic Kungens Män collection, with long, sprawling songs that are invitations to inner and outer space. The music has been recorded over the last two years in between tours of Europe and UK.
These twin albums also mark our first cooperation with a Swedish label, Majestic Mountain Records. A label built on love for the music and a supplier of high-quality vinyl with an emphasis on psych, doom, and stoner.”
Majestic Mountain Records is not only delighted but hounoured to be bringing you the next chapter in the evolution of their legendarily groovy, deeply trippy, and fiercely funky, free-form psychedelia.
Please give them a follow if you are not already and do keep an eye out for more regarding these monumental explorations into the art of sound.
The quote from the band:
"After more than a decade in constant motion, Kungens Män is now ready
to unleash one of their most ambitious projects thus far.
In February 2024, the first part of "For Contemporary Animals"
will be released. It consists of eight songs with Kungens Män in their
most condensed form, at the same time with a great degree of variation
and some soundscapes previously unheard in the improvised world of the
adventurous Swedes. The second part which comes out in May is a more
classic Kungens Män collection, with long, sprawling songs that are
invitations to inner and outer space. The music has been recorded over
the last two years in between tours of Europe and UK.
These twin albums also mark the band’s first cooperation with a Swedish
label, Majestic Mountain Records. A label built on love for the music
and a supplier of high-quality vinyl with an emphasis on psych, doom, and
stoner, the label has asked about the possibility of releasing Kungens
Män for several years. And now the time is right!"
