This is an anti-folk album that’s far too hard to get a handle on, there’s nothing concrete to grab, it’s all air. How about some facts? We can maybe build on something there. Herman Dune are two Jewish Swedish brothers (David-Ivar Herman Dune and Andre Herman Dune) who live in Paris, record in New York, and give it a slab of Americana like steak. The non-American factor is important: they’re non-Americans composing American culture, living in it as well. It’s non-American Americana, an outsider’s view, in a genre which seems to consist of just itself, Herman Dune are a revelation.
