Jan 09, 2020 By Christopher Roberts Destroyer

Destroyer (the project of Dan Bejar) is releasing a new album, Have We Met, on January 31 via Merge. Now he has shared another song from it, “Cue Synthesizer” via a video for the track. In a press release Bejar describes the song as “maybe the most audacious piece of music Destroyer’s laid to tape.” Check out the David Ehrenreich-directed below, followed by Destroyer’s upcoming tour dates.

Previously Destroyer shared Have We Met‘s first single, “Crimson Tide,” via a video for the track. It was #2 on our Songs of the Week list. Then Bejar shared another song from the album, “It Just Doesn’t Happen,” via a sparse visual for the track featuring dimly lit images of a snowmobile at night. “It Just Doesn’t Happen” also made our Songs of the Week list.

Have We Met is the follow-up to 2017’s ken, which was one of our Top 100 Albums of 2017.
