{"product_id":"nick-waterhouse-the-fooler-lp","title":"Nick Waterhouse - The Fooler [LP]","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe title of the sixth album from Californian singer-songwriter Nick Waterhouse is more than just the name of one of it's tracks. The Fooler is both a clue and a red herring. The Fooler is the observed and the observer, narrator and subject, truth and lie. The Fooler is the shadow and reflection of a city the artist knows sufficiently well to wander with his eyes closed, and a place which very possibly never even existed. The Fooler is not so much an unreliable narrator as a constantly shifting perspective. The Fooler is the new album by Nick Waterhouse, and it's a lot. Recorded by Mark Neill (Black Keys; Los Straightjackets; Dave Cobb) in Valdosta, Georgia, it's a song-cycle of sorts, the arc of the album telling a tale of a city and it's denizens. The result is a record that offers up new riches and fresh perspectives with every spin. From the hidden corners of 'Hide \u0026amp; Seek' and the roadhouse soul of 'Play To Win' to the primitive, attitudinal, chugging two-chord thrill of 'Late In The Garden', it builds inexorably to the drama of the title track and pulsing roll-and-rock of the final pay off, 'Unreal, Immaterial'. Play it once and it sounds immediately like a collection of great songs. Play it again - and you will - and it feels like a novel or film slowly unveiling it's secrets, kaleidoscopic in it's narrative complexity. \"Especially during this record, I started just becoming what Allen Ginsberg called a pure breath,\" says the artist. \"I was becoming pure breath with my ideas.\"\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cdiv data-bt-autogen\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUPC:\u003c\/strong\u003e 810874025951\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLabel:\u003c\/strong\u003e Innovative Leisure\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRelease Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e 4.7.23\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFormat:\u003c\/strong\u003e Vinyl Record\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Pale Blue Dot Records","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45975116382305,"sku":"810874025951","price":31.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1588\/0411\/files\/4176924-2943262.jpg?v=1783386210","url":"https:\/\/thedarkslide.com\/products\/nick-waterhouse-the-fooler-lp","provider":"The Dark Slide","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
