Review

Entertainment Weekly (p.64) - "[H]is insider snipes at indie-rock pretense show Wildean wit. Yet his rhymes are equally fun for outsiders." -- Grade: B+

Title Note

Destroyer (Rock): Dan Bejar (vocals, various instruments); Nicholas Bragg (guitar); Tim Loewen (electric guitar, bass guitar); Scott Morgan (saxophone, drums); Fisher Rose (trumpet, vibraphone); Ted Bois (keyboards).

There are enough reasons for some listeners to dismiss Destroyer (aka Dan Bejar) right off--his self-consciously literate lyrics, his precious sense of theatricality, and his shameless David Bowie obsession, to name a few. Yet Bejar makes all of these potential liabilities work in his favor by building smart, absorbing, and remarkably well-crafted pop songs that sink in and then stick.

DESTROYER'S RUBIES, the artist's fifth solo album, is his most accomplished to date, and though it still owes a deep debt to HUNKY DORY-era Bowie, it truly shines with a sense of originality and integrity. Psychedelic, dreamy, sensitive, bitter, and slightly mad, Bejar is pushing the horizons of his own vision, yet his tunesmithery is sharper and more focused than ever.
