I just want to take the time and appreciate the crazy choreography the dancers did here.

Dan Bejar’s voice is itself a music genre

Спасибо Афише за рекомендации крутых треков и клипов!

I'm always amazed when an artist manage to use those three chords (wich have been used a zillion times) in an interesting way and make a good and fresh sounding song with that

dan seems at his lyrical best (and most cutthroat) when thrashing the music industry and the state of music in general. dude can spit some venom

Dan Bejar is easily up there with the likes of Bob Dylan, Tom Waits, Nick Cave, Leonard Cohen, etc... The man just doesn’t get the credit he deserves.

I praise the Bejar since 2009, tried to introduce him to a friend who loves music almost as Much as me. He didn't like it. I was shocked. We're no longer Friend anyway (not related).

A couple years ago, he opened for Azure Ray here in Omaha at a charity event for the Bemis Art Center. I think tickets for the fund raiser was $25. It was in an old warehouse where people were still arriving, and he was playing on a small elevated stage. Everyone was at the back, ordering drinks, and they had no idea who this guy was. Me and my friend Jonny are huge Destroyer fans, and we (along with around 25 others) were right up at the small stage. He played for 45 minutes. It was just him and an acoustic guitar that was plugged into an amp. It was one of the greatest shows I’ve ever seen, and it was surreal, because it felt like he was playing in your living room. It was like a dream, where one of your favorite artists plays for you and a small group of friends.

can't imagine the song without the video somehow they both work so well together

Give the world your mind on music. God Bless you Destroyer. You are my new favorite Musician. I am 60. Keep up the good Work...your Band is so F-ing Good.

Downright an electronic tune and I love saying that this song blew my mind. I'm fond of the initial part as it covers millions techniques of dance music. I don't know anything about this artist, so I'm not able to write a decent comment. The matter is that his voice is just at ease, thorough in the continuation and peaceful, it grabs your attention. It apparently draws influence from the masterpieces of the '80s and it reminds me of Depeche Mode

Fantastic photography Liam Mitchell. :)

Destroyer, you are underated my friends. I've been listening to since 2012. You bring good flavor and experiences to my life.

I rate him highly as do many others, in what way and by whom must he be rated for him not to be underrated? I feel like this statement is meaningless as I find it on everything single artists' videos on youtube...or perhaps its memelords...

Impeccably crafted song. Love it.

True, very true.

Thank you, Canada’s Private Radio Broadcasters, FACTOR, and Amplify BC.

This is spot on - the right music for right now. The video perfectly suits the track. Destroyer should blow up soon. I'm rarely wrong about this kind of thing.

Just got the full Album, let me just say, DAN, you fucking rule dude, stop. So much fire on this record, University Hill, ok I see you playa? THE RAVEN? I hope you lay that live when you get to Toronto because even though that album is less than 24 hours old, I've been playing that song nonstop weaving it into the very fabric of my being. As a long time fan, I gotta say, this one is hiiiiigh on my list of favorite records in your discography. ken was a bit more subdued, especially after Poison Season, but this record is like...I don't know my mans is back yo, my mans is DRUNK ON THE FIELD AGAIIIIIIIN!!!!!! It's a thing of pure beauty, bless you for dropping it at the top of the year so I have a soundtrack for this year's inevitable miseries.

Cue thumbs up Cue headbop Cue mindtrip

twelfth lp + crushin' it

Aaaa this video is such a great compliment to the song!

It's a testament to your music, joy is found in every song regardless of intent and lyrical content. So, it's safe to say you're a master of the craft. Thanks and wish you well.

phenomenal dan bejar. 2020 is your year!!!

watched on repeat. so good

Very satisfying video. Listened to the song by itself first, liked it, and the video adds a lot to the experience. Love the dance.

Did you realize it was hollow? Like everything that’s come before, you were gone The idiot dissonant roar That exquisite gong struck dumb Cue synthesizer Cue guitar Bring in the drums Cue fake drums The idea of the world is no good The terrain is no good The sea's blasted poem A twinkle in the guitar player’s eye Cue synthesizer Cue guitar Cue synthesizer Wherever you are Open door policy not a goddamn thing in the night Death threats scrawled in invisible ink’s alright Went to Europe went to America. It’s the same shit Been to Europe been to America. It’s all the same shit I look around the room, I see a room of pit ponies Drowning forever in a sea of love I look around the room, we are a room of pit ponies Drowning forever in a sea of love Wherever you are... Wherever you are... Wherever you are... Cue synthesizer...

artistic excellence.

'The idea of the world is no good'

Dude killed it.

This song is really really really good. The songwriting, instrumentation, and lyrics are as good as it gets, by modern or historic standards. If Destroyer's songs were all of this length and format, Bejar would have a better chance of being a household name. His average song is very long though, and sadly that's not encouraged in today's mainstream music.

freakin amazing! I was dancing barefoot on the kitchen floor

Canada's 'private' broadcasters? Apparently it's code for commercial stations. I don't hear any of those rotten stations in Vancouver playing your music. The ones playing it are non-commercial, independent media stations like CiTR, Co-op & CJSF.

I dig the plastic wrap. Very reminiscent of “Dexter.” Cue the code!

oh fuck Satantango!

The second scene (0:11-0.26) reminds me Béla Tarr"s "Satantango". kzread.info/dash/bejne/oKSl0K2eaLKWlKg.html
