pseudopodia Dogviolet is one of the most sincere albums I have listened to in years. I know nothing of LAUREL's life or where she draws from and that is so unimportant.

This album connects with you emotionally. You feel it, every single emotion that cannot be described with just words. I find myself trapped in its world of broken desire and the agony of love and lovers.

For my money, she is a true artist who is just beginning. I cannot wait for what she creates next. Favorite track: Same Mistakes.

davidlacombe86 Dogviolet shines like a naturally beautiful gem, one that would lose its lustrous gravitas if it were to be polished and refined. Laurel is showcasing her writing and producing abilities here, mixing in the beauty of her heart-bearing vocals/raw guitar and going well-beyond the trite implications of a "standard" indie pop/folk album.
We are supplied an involved feeling of closeness to the artist's experiences she has poured her heart out into creating this music. Favorite track: South Coast.

about

Rising UK star LAUREL has announced her incredible debut album ‘DOGVIOLET’, out August 24th on Counter Records. Leading with infectious debut single ‘Lovesick’, the evocative and effortless 12 track LP sees Laurel showcase her sublime vocals and raw guitars.

Recorded without glossing over the imperfections and driven by her personal lyrics and stirring melodies, every track on the album was written and recorded in LAUREL’s home studio in East London. It was then taken to Gizzard Studios to be fed back through a reel-to-reel tape recorder, re-capturing the organic tone that is prevalent within her breathtaking live shows.

Titled after the flower, ‘DOGVIOLET’ is a deeply personal exploration of the bittersweet feeling of love. Laurel says ‘I wrote these songs at home often locking myself away for periods of time in order to capture the true mania that comes from love; although a beautiful feeling, it can often feel a lot uglier.'
