Destroyer hasn’t released a full length since 2011’s excellent Kaputt, but he’s finally ready to do that this year. He’ll release Poison Season, a double album, on August 28 via Merge in the US and Dead Oceans in the UK. He just shared first single “Dream Lover,” which is more of a swaggering upbeat rock song than the sophisti-pop of Kaputt, but still full of saxophones. Listen, and check out the album tracklist, below.
Dan Bejar & co. will also be touring internationally in support of the record for about two months from September to November. That tour hits NYC on October 4 at Webster Hall. That date and many others are with Jennifer Castle. Tickets for Webster are on sale now.
All dates are listed, with the new song and album tracklist, below…
