What is a "boogie"? In the common tongue, it's a dance or an occasion to dance. This being a Destroyer album and not the common tongue, the implications of a title like Dan's Boogie are at once more alluring and dangerous. "A boogie is a hustle, a scam that doesn't quite work, the moves we make when we're up against it", explains Dan Bejar.

These tracks are credited as all-timer Destroyer songs across the vast spectrum Bejar and his collaborators have established for themselves: spectacle-laden pop epics, personal piano ballads, and smouldering works of mood that blur the lines between song and novel and cinema, each brimming with the urgency of a state secret in the mind of a tortured spy. Where previous Destroyer albums were locked in combat with the world, Dan's Boogie dances with it, its nine reveries coalescing into one long hustle. Dan Bejar's eye may be on the exits, but he's not leaving anytime soon.

Exclusive CLEAR WITH BLACK SWIRL vinyl produced by Merge Records in 2025.
