Our Take

Ah, DESTROYER's "Your Blues" is a tantalizing concoction of enigmatic melodies and wistful lyrics that will leave you both scratching your head and tapping your feet. Frontman Dan Bejar, with his signature sardonic wit and unconventional song structures, leads the listener on a whimsical journey through a kaleidoscope of sonic landscapes.

The album opens with the sprawling epic "Notorious Lightning," a cacophony of swirling synths and Bejar's cryptic observations on fame and fortune. It's a bold statement of intent that sets the tone for the rest of the record. Tracks like "It's Gonna Take An Airplane" and "An Actor's Revenge" showcase Bejar's knack for crafting catchy hooks and subverting traditional pop song structures with his off-kilter storytelling.

But it's on songs like "The Music Lovers" and "Painter in Your Pocket" where DESTROYER truly shines, with Bejar's poetic lyricism and intricate instrumentation coming together in perfect harmony. The album's lush production and intricate arrangements create a rich tapestry of sound that rewards repeat listens.

In a musical landscape oversaturated with cookie-cutter pop and soulless production, DESTROYER's "Your Blues" is a breath of fresh air. It's a reminder that music can still be challenging, thought-provoking, and, above all, fun. So sit back, relax, and let DESTROYER take you on a wild ride through the weird and wonderful world of "Your Blues."
