Having celebrated their 30th year in 2025 and undertaken back-to-back North American tours, DOZER return with a scorching new collection encompassing even more of their astonishing and prolific history as they enter their fourth decade as Scandinavia's preeminent desert rock band.
Their newest Blues Funeral Recordings release Reflect to Rewind is a double album array of rare tracks, b-sides and singles unearthed from the archives and spanning the band's extensive fuzz-fueled career. Once more, they tapped longtime collaborator Karl Daniel Lidén to painstakingly remaster this volume track by track, enlivening and energizing each gem and showing that they not only deserved but demanded to be brought forth as reflections of DOZER's timeless and unassailable heavy rocking righteousness.

Formed in 1995 in the town of Borlänge, Sweden, DOZER led the earliest wave of stoner/desert rock, a fusion of proto-metal, riff-rock and punk that blasted forth from Scandinavia and Europe in response to the tectonic heft and sun-baked fuzz of American bands Kyuss and Fu Manchu.
30 years on, DOZER are heralded as undisputed forerunners of a movement and champions of volcanic energy. Their status was affirmed in 2023 with the release of the landmark Drifting in the Endless Void, an amp-splitting return that dominated best-of lists and turntables, hailed as "a magnetic fireball of propulsive hooks and cosmic majesty" by Decibel Magazine. This renewed dominance led to DOZER’s first US tour in 20 years and set the stage for their three-decade milestone in 2025.
DOZER have always been prolific. Driven by take-no-prisoners energy, they'd hit the studio often, laying down songs in rapid-fire batches with little concern for schedules and album planning, and their early days saw the band self-release a multitude of small-run 7-inch singles that tapped into their DIY leanings and allowed forward momentum at maximum velocity. More songs surfaced on compilations and as limited-release b-sides, while others went into the proverbial vault.
In celebration of their 30th anniversary in 2025, DOZER enthusiastically presented Rewind to Return, a double album of singles, rare tracks and b-sides from across their prolific history. Neither a chronological document nor a comprehensive collection of every non-album track, this is a carefully considered selection of the band's favorites, chosen for their meaning and impact, brilliantly remastered by Karl Daniel Lidén and assembled to create the best possible record to commemorate their vast catalog and untouchable legacy.
