Destroyer's Poison Season Out Now

Destroyer's Poison Season Out Now

"...such a striking and involving piece of work. In fact, it's Bejar's best. The only bad news for the man himself is that he's just raised expectations even higher." – The Guardian **** Album of the Week "The guy's sitting down among all the noise around him; it's a perfect example of the considered, measured chaos and wilful determination evident across Poison Season; a mere nano-second of perfection on an album riddled with such moments" – Record Collector **** Album of the Month "The prolific Canadian's latest blaze of glory" – Uncut 8/10 Destroyer's critically acclaimed album Poison Season is out now via Dead Oceans (Europe) andMerge Records (North America). Mr. Bejar has long displayed a chameleonic instinct for change while maintaining a unified aesthetic (rather than just pinballing between reference points). No two records sound the same, but they're always uniquely Destroyer. Poison Season merges a casual literary brilliance with intense melodic verve, nimble arrangements, and a certain blue-eyed soul sadness. Watch the video for "Times Square" below. A video that's true to Bejar's ethos, it has a seemingly obtuse take on the what you'd imagine the Times Square is like – bricks and mortar replaced by green spaces; robotic, busy New Yorkers replaced with animals in animation – it's more Wallace & Gromit than Wall Street.
