{"product_id":"waterhouse-nick-fooler-cd-1087402580","title":"Nick Waterhouse - The Fooler [CD]","description":"\u003cp\u003e2023 release. The 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\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTracklist:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLooking For A Place\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHide And Seek\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e(No) Commitment\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePlay To Win\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWas It You\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLate In The Garden\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Problem With A Street\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePlan For Leaving\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAre You Hurting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWas The Style\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Fooler\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUnreal, Immaterial\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"503","offers":[{"title":"New","offer_id":50571614388520,"sku":"81087402580","price":15.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0933\/3833\/7576\/files\/4176925-2943260.jpg?v=1763989599","url":"https:\/\/waterloorecords.com\/products\/waterhouse-nick-fooler-cd-1087402580","provider":"Waterloo Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
