Powerful and pumping drums, an army of trumpets and a frontman singing ‘Love is on the run’ – Dan Bejar and his alter ego DESTROYER finally report back with Dream Lover. The first single off the project’s long awaited new album Poison Season is a triumphant comeback, a stunning statement, full of uplifting energy and the typical dose of Bejar-madness.
That’s a tune that will carry us through spring and straight to the summer. That’s also the time when DESTROYER will release the long awaited follow-up to their acclaimed 2011 record Kaputt (well, if you don’t count the Five Spanish Songs EP from 2013). The new album arrives via Merge on August 28 and Dream Lover is right here for your delight.
