Destroyer - Kaputt →

I haven’t been one to follow Vancouver’s Dan Bejar’s project Destroyer very much, but I must say what I have heard of his newest album is golden. It almost has a dreamy, 80’s sound to it or something. Either way, this track is very groovy and should be enjoyed by everyone. “Kaputt” is set for a January 25th release. *Click the title of the post to visit...
