Dozer Drifting in the Endless Void

What makes Drifting in the Endless Void elite and sit atop OHMs Peak?

  • After a 15 year hiatus since the Swedish foursome put out ‘Beyond Colossal’ they come back with a tremendous vengeance delivering ‘Drifting in the Endless Void’ an absolute powerhouse of an album

  • Dozer were instrumental in shaping the original European stoner rock scene and amazingly keep the vibrancy alive with a modern tilt and more expansive sound

  • Nordin’s vocal performance on this album is absolutely stunning, ebbing from muffled distant spaced out eerie corners to in your face unfiltered beauty. The variety in tone provides for one hell of an entertaining journey

  • Drifting in the Endless Void hits all the right notes as it has an atmospheric, sci-fi fuzzed-fueled theme

  • Holappa soars with laser focused contrast and beautiful precision. A key driver in our excitement surrounding this album is the deeper layered texture that the fretwork unravels. The band takes more risk in expanding riff angles and it pays off in a big way

  • All tracks exceed our expectations, but we take special note of ‘Missing 13’. This track is so absorbing with its melancholy entrance and creeping build-up. Clearly one of the most anthemic and heartfelt tracks we have heard in a long long time

  • Bottom line is that Dozer has not just put out an album here to tack on to the relatively recent Stoner resurgence. Rather, it is abundantly clear that this album has been brewing in their minds for many years. The patience, care, and craftsmanship taken to evolve their sound and put out a piece that hits so many marks is just what the scene needed. Thought leaders in the genre for sure
