Destroyer’s Möbius Jukebox: Dan Bejar's Infinite Twist of Listening and Creationnew
Describing Destroyer is a Sisyphean task, challenging and futile. Even if one manages to gruntingly roll a boulder of labels up the mountain, a new Destroyer record waits at the crown to kick it away, sending it bouncing down the slope to collapse in a pile of rubble and good intentions. Besides, what use is an accounting of elements without knowing the force that binds them?

Fragile, Elastic Masterpiecenew
Destroyer actually does destroy indie-rock wussitude, by channeling it into the sonic equivalent of a passive-aggressive apocalypse.

Poetic & Overwhelmingnew
This album will strike some listeners as enlightenment and others as frippery, but all 10 tracks are dominated by Bejar's full-bore approach.
