Destroyer es el proyecto más personal del canadiense Dan Bejar, también en The New Pornographers, Swan Lake y en el grupo recién formada Hello, Blue Roses. Aunque Destoyer sigue siendo miembro activo de los The New Pornographers y sigue aportando canciones a su repertorio, Dan lleva el último par de años centrado en su proyecto personal.
Considerado uno de los compositores de mayor talento de nuestro tiempo (e indiscutiblemente uno de los más prolíficos), Bejar disfruta con el cambio sorprendiéndonos en cada uno de sus trabajos.
¡Cuatro años de duro trabajo!Este mes de mayo cumplimos cuatro años al aire. Seguimos trabajando en la difusión de este maravilloso instrumento, ¡gracias por participar en nuestra historia!
A few of these chords make me nervous, so let me know if you have any corrections. It may just be just be the way this song is. For example, the F# chord on the "new ways of living" outro seems to have a G#m arpeggio played over it--it hurts with my brain.
