Description

Standout release from the Destroyer back catalog. If you missed out on the Record Store Day reissue of Destroyer s Rubies a few years ago, Merge has got your back. They ve stepped up and repressed Dan Bejar s seventh album on white vinyl. The label has even included the RSD exclusive Loscil s Rubies ! Aside from all the extras the album itself is one of the highlights of the Vancouver indie rock project s long career. Bejar successfully combines the biting wit of Bob Dylan with the glamorous and bombastic folk of early T-Rex and Bowie. It s an approach that sets him apart from the more straightforward pop of his other band, The New Pornographers. Bejar s singular take on pop is evidenced in his songwriting and production. There s really nothing else like Destroyer.
