Destroyer has confirmed new album 'Dan's Boogie' and shared an early single featuring Fiver
Destroyer reveals upcoming album 'Dan's Boogie' and releases new single 'Bologna' featuring Fiver.
Destroyer has announced their new album 'Dan's Boogie', set for release via Merge Records on 28th March.
The follow-up to 2022's 'Labyrinthitis' arrives alongside lead single 'Bologna', which features Fiver. The track marks a departure for Dan Bejar, who takes on a supporting role in the song's narrative.
"I haven't written many songs like 'Bologna'," Bejar explains. "I struggled singing the first and third verses, the most important parts of the song. They needed gravity and grit. The threat of disappearing needed to be real. So I called Simone."
The accompanying video, directed by David Galloway, features first-person footage presented on VHS tape. Galloway notes: "How do you begin a 'Dear John' letter? I suppose there are lots of online tools available to anyone with a phone that can help you get that type of thing started. In fact, you can learn all kinds of stuff with the internet. It's amazing. How to pick locks, how to access your neighbours' WiFi, how to meet a 'challenge,' how to put on makeup. Makeup is pretty big these days, hey? You can also definitely find tips and tricks to help you start a whole new life if the one you have doesn't seem to cut the mustard. Rather, 'Bologna'."
