Destroyer has announced a North American tour in support of his upcoming album, Dan’s Boogie, and dropped a new song from the LP. This time around, Dan Bejar delves into “Cataract Time,” his term for the essential reckoning that is forcing yourself to go for a walk and note every observation. “There is a lightness that points to a future, even if I think it’s the heaviest thing I’ve ever written,” he said of the single. Watch its John Collins–directed video below.
Once Bejar wraps up his Destroyer tour of Europe, which includes a set at Primavera Sound Barcelona, he returns to North America for a long run of shows. That autumn leg begins on September 23 in Eugene, Oregon, and lasts on through to October 26 when he returns to soak up his hometown of Vancouver, British Columbia. Find Destroyer’s tour dates after the fold.
Dan’s Boogie follows Destroyer’s 2022 full-length, Labyrinthitis. It’s out March 28, via Merge, and includes the songs “Hydroplaning Off the Edge of the World” and “Bologna” in addition to the newly released “Cataract Time.”
