Exclusive album premiere of ‘För samtida Djur 2’ by Kungens Män, out on Majestic Mountain Records on August 30th, 2024.

Kungens Män from Stockholm have been quietly crafting their unique brand of free rock for over a decade, blending the earthy tones of the natural world with the relentless noise of urban life. Their music is a journey through landscapes both real and imagined, where Ayler-esque saxophone wails cut through chiming guitars, all anchored by drums that seem to pulse with an otherworldly energy.

‘För Samtida Djur 2’ marks the second part of their latest project, released on Majestic Mountain Records. Where the first part offered shorter, more contained pieces, this album lets the music breathe and expand. With four long-form compositions, Kungens Män creates a space where sound drifts and evolves, taking the listener on a deep, introspective journey.

This is a band that understands the balance between chaos and calm, and in ‘För Samtida Djur 2,’ they offer a soundscape that’s as rooted in the organic rhythms of nature as it is in the urgency of modern life. The lineup includes Peter Erikson on synthesizer, Hans Hjelm and Mikael Tuominen on guitars, Gustav Nygren on saxophone, Mattias Indy Pettersson on drums, and Magnus Öhrn on bass. Together, they’ve crafted a work that invites you to lose yourself in its expansive, textured world.

Together, they are Kungens Män, the heralds of a new sonic era, beckoning all who dare to listen to join them on their journey through the astral plains of sound.
