1) A stoner rock/metal band from Borlänge, Sweden.
2) A hardstyle DJ.
3) An alternative group from Seattle.
1) The band was founded in 1995. In the late 90's they began sending out their demo, although not really expecting anything big to happen. When Frank Kozik of Man's Ruin Records heard their demo, he immediately signed them. Man's Ruin released their first album, In the Tail of the Comet. Soon after, they came out with their second release, Madre de Dios. This was not as successful as 'In the Tail of the Comet' due to Man's Ruin collapse shortly after its release. In 2003, Dozer made a comeback with Call it Conspiracy. Their latest album, Through the Eyes of Heathens has achieved much success with its more hard rock and metal influences.
The current line-up:
Fredrik Nordin (vocals, rhythm guitar)
Tommi Holappa (lead guitar)
Johan Rockner (bass guitar)
Olle 'Bull' Mårthans (drums)
Fredrik and Tommi are also part of the swedish stoner band Greenleaf.

2) Dozer (DJ Tony) started his career at a very remarkable way in 1990. Back in those days he had a friend which was resident at a local club in Eindhoven. Tony always went to that club with his friend. At that time Tony had the thought of starting a dj career of his own but it didn’t come to this point yet. One day his friend couldn’t make it to the club and asked Tony to replace him that night. This was the immediate start of his career. The owner of the club was stunned by his performance and offered him a residency at his club.
From the beginning Tony played house music which was just upcoming at that time. By the end of the nineties the hardhouse became more popular and Tony picked it up and directly stated playing this kind of house music. Eventually the hardhouse would split up in hardstyle and jump. The last style is the main music style Tony is playing in his sets nowadays. Of course Tony also plays hardstyle with a wink to early rave.
In 2004 his long awaited first track was released and from that moment on he also made name as a producer. All his tracks are released on the Superplastic label, which is a sub label of the famous Fusion label. His tracks found their way to all famous jumpstyle artists and are now heard at every big party and club. His first record was Whipe Out/ Kick and would be followed by more massive tracks like Afraid of the Dark, Squels and Krekwakwou. Tony spends a lot of time in his studio and you can be sure that more jumpstyle hits will follow!
The success of his tracks was picked up by the big promoters and soon he played on all big events like Defqon, Q-Base and Hard Bass. Today he is a resident at the Rodenburg and besides that he played at the biggest clubs in Europe, like the Time Out (NL), the Matrixx (NL), Outland (NL), Cherrymoon (BE), Zak (DE), Oxa (CH) and the Mad (CH). Everywhere Tony performs, the crowd is going wild!
Meanwhile Tony is a well known artist with recognisable tracks and his own style of performance. For sure you are going to hear a lot of DJ Tony in the near future!

Grand Inquisitor
Dozer Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
It always comes with the light
I can't be worried 'bout sorrow
A sadness that will not ignite
And you got a long way up
When you got controlled by fear
It never leaves when it's bright
I can't be stuck in the moment
Amber alerts me in time
I'll never wait for tomorrow
It always comes after night
I hope that you see what I see
But I will not put up a fight
The lyrics to "Grand Inquisitor" by Dozer speak to the idea of living in the present moment without being held back by fear or the anxieties of the past or future. The singer emphasizes that they never wait for tomorrow, as it is always coming with the light, and they cannot be worried about sorrow, a sadness that will not ignite. The theme of fear is also prevalent in the lyrics, as the line "you got a long way up when you got controlled by fear" emphasizes the idea that fear can hold one back from taking chances or living fully.
The singer also acknowledges the difficulty of letting go of the past and moving forward, as the line "I cannot lay it behind me, it never leaves when it's bright" suggests that memories and regrets can be difficult to shake. However, they also emphasize the importance of being present and not getting stuck in the moment, as "amber alerts me in time" suggests that the singer is able to recognize when they need to move forward.
