  • Record/Vinyl + Digital Album

    12" vinyl edition from Low Company Records and Feeding Tube Records. Limited to 500 copies. DIRECT NOW. High quality pressing on reverse cardstock.

    "Convalescence takes time". Indeed, a record of slow recovery and rediscovery. From inside to outside. From Under the Volcano to The Forest Path in the Spring. Perhaps the most personal Doozer record to date, stripped down and direct.

    With contributions from longtime Doozer staple, Ben Kingsbury, our upstairs organologist, Lance Whitehead, and sweet voiced Eddie Goodban. Record in Edinburgh in late summer 2019. Mastered by Carl Saff.

    IN STORES 3rd Dec (USA); 13th January (UK/EURO and streaming).

    "We [Feeding Tube] are most pleased to present the seventh LP by The Doozer, now based in Edinburgh, but still creating a sound we feel has deep roots in Cambridge, England. is a somewhat sparser trip than his last album, 2018's Figurines (FTR 360LP), but the quality of the songs will be balm to those who have missed his presence. With gentle accompaniment from multi-instrumentalist Ben Kingsbury, Lance Whitehead and Edie Goodban, the tracks here were recorded in Edinburgh in the summer of 2019, before the shit hit the fans, but some of the songs feel as though they were precipitated by a personal apocalypse, and I'm pretty sure that's something we can all empathize with at this point in the time/space continuum. The sense one gets is that the songs collected here are deigned to help us all rebuild that which has collapsed around us. This is not on infer that The Doozer has gone all instructional on us. One of the great features of his songs has always been their way of combining abstract confusion with observational clarity, allowing simple words to create abstract images. And that has not changed here. His brilliantly casual approach to this is what always makes people (like me anyway), think about his music in terms of extending the sweetest traditions of Syd Barrett and Nick Nicely. There is darkness built into this music, but it is countered with illumination. And if you so choose, you can spend many pleasant hours exploring the many mysterious corners of Convalescence. And that would be the right thing to do!" --Byron Coley, 2021
