    Radio Picks the Video Star

    Earlier this week, Soundcheck began polling listeners on a list of 10 innovative music videos handpicked by Blender magazine's Lizzy Goodman. Now, Goodman returns to reveal the results of our music video poll. And: The psychedelic Swedish band Dungen mines the prog-rock greats of the '70s on their new album, "4." Amid a string of CMJ Music Marathon performances, they perform live in our studio.

The Video Vote

For the past week, Soundcheck listeners have been voting on 10 innovative videos handpicked by Lizzy Goodman of Blender magazine – or nominating their own picks. Now, it's time to hear the results of democracy in action: Lizzy joins us again to unveil the winner of our Music Video Poll.

Dungen

The psychedelic Swedish band Dungen is adept at mining prog-rock greats of the '70s without leaving their fans feeling all retro. On their latest album, "4," front-man Gustav Ejstes leads the group through guitar acrobatics and lounge-y keyboard jams. And like their past releases, it's epic stuff. They join us for a live performance.

Dungen performs tonight at the Music Hall of Williamsburg as part of the CMJ Music Marathon.
