Some Dozer history for those that may not know:
Dozer formed in the north in 1995 with members Tommi Holappa, Fredrik Nordin, Erik Bäckwall, and Magnus Larsson. They played local venues and supported bands in their hometown. Magnus Larsson left in 1996, replaced by Johan Rockner. In 1998, they recorded a split EP with Unida, released by MeteorCity and reissued in 2005.
Dozer caught the attention of Man’s Ruin Records, a prominent stoner rock label, and quickly recorded their debut album. “In the Tail of a Comet” was released in 2000, followed by “Madre de Dios” in 2001. They worked with producer Chips Kiesbye for their well-received album “Call It Conspiracy” in 2003. Erik Bäckwall left and Daniel Lidén joined the band.
In 2005, Dozer released “Through the Eyes of Heathens” on Small Stone Records. Olle Mårthans replaced Lidén in 2006. Their fifth album, “Beyond Colossal,” came out in 2008. They have toured extensively and played over 300 shows, sharing the stage with notable bands.
After a hiatus, Dozer returned in 2012 and experienced a lineup change in 2022, welcoming Sebastian Olsson as their new drummer. Their latest album, “Drifting in the Endless Void,” was released in 2023.
Members of Dozer have been involved in other projects, including Greenleaf, The Sick, and Besvärjelsen. Daniel Lidén pursued a band called Vaka, formerly known as And Machine Said… Behold:.
