Ting Mong is the sixth full-length album of new material from Cambodian/American band Dengue Fever, and their first album in more than eight years.
In Khmer folklore, a Ting Mong is a decoy or mannequin, similar to a scarecrow, used to fight away evil spirits and plagues. Available in vinyl and CD, the new album artwork is from Japanese artist Imiri Sakabashira and features nine new tracks, many clocking in at more than four minutes. The band recorded the album after a hiatus followed by a global pandemic, which allowed them to flesh out tracks which presented themselves as slower, more lengthy, psychedelic jams.
