Reviews Not As Plant:
‘Not as plant’ is...
.... a blasting album!
Roar E-zine / Rock-Metal-Punk
... catchy, good swing, better vibe than first record!
Out of Step
...poppunk with a more mature sound. But fans of Blink182, Sum41 and Bowling for
Soup will still love this too!
West-Point
...fine melodies and vocal harmonies!
MusicFrom.nl
... a great pop punk record. Get shows and get heard!
Festival Info / Podium Info
... a rollercoaster of powerful, melodic poppunk filled with fine vocal
harmonies!
Up Magazine
...a poppunk record that sounds like the Ataris and NFG with an unique theme!
OOR
...a record that broadly sounds like the
Ataris, but their lyrics are LOADS better than other poppunkbands!

Reviews Concrete Smiles At Aisle Five:
Dowzer is a 3-headed punkrock band from
Roosendaal in the Netherlands.
Their sound goes back to the mid nineties when skatepunk and skapunk was very popular.
So ‘Concrete Smiles At Aisle Five’
offers you a nice collection of poppy skatepunk, sing along
punkrock and skapunk
songs. I’ve grown a bit out of this sound but to be honest I enjoyed
listening
to their debut record. Its not the best I’ve heard but it is certainly good
stuff.
The album swings, has some catchy riffs and the band has some things to
say.
I specially like their message in alibi.
Out Of
Step = score 7/10
Their mix of
skapunk, skatepunk and poppunk sounds too sweet
and not catchy enough but I can tell you this trio has musical talent!
When they work a bit more on their songs they can compete with
bands like The Real Danger
Punx.nl
= score 61/100
This rocks! Not
in a 'Guns&Roses bandana wearing, look at me
i'm cool' way, but in a 'normal, we come from Roosendaal and we
don't give a fuck about what you think' way. A great achievement
for a band that started one year ago. With their tight basslines, no
bullshit drumming, loud guitars and singing harmonies Dowzer makes
Concrete Smiles... a swinging album
Poprock.nl = score 70/100
This band from
Roosendaal makes swinging punkrock/poppunk and
they sound really professional too! Their debut album with catchy
guitarriffs, ska influences and singing harmonies is filled with energy.
Let's hope they are going to play a lot of shows and make another
awesome record!
Upmagazine = score 80/100 published in magazine, not online
If you want fast
and hard punkrock with tight riffs, you should give
Dowzer a listen. These youngsters aren't there yet (they started a
year ago), but they've got the talent to get there! I'm curious about
their live shows. I recommend this band to everybody!
Bobby
In A Volvo = score 3,5/5 stars
Dowzer
brings their punkrock in a traditional way: the singing harmonies,
ska parts,
the lead vocals and the hidden track remind me of NOFX and
Descendents. But this
band knows how this music has to be and they really
convince me with their 13
songs!
Livexs (Live XS ezine) = no
score
Dowzer rocks
from the start, no long intro's, just solid punkrock. The second song
has ska
influences and the following songs on their debut all bring new influences
and
that makes Concrete Smiles a record with variety. It sounds proffessional and
the songs are really figured out. The guys and girl from Dowzer put a really
tight debut
on the map, I hope it's just as tight on stage!
West-point
(West-Point ezine and published in local papers) = no score
