Kaput is an album that accompanies me on my road trips. Destroyer and Beach House are ace for road trip getting lost in daydreaming and parallel culture
" I was like the laziest river A vulture predisposed to eating off floors No wait, I take that back I was more like an ocean Stuck inside hospital corridors My condition in general Despite what they say, improves So I could care less on a night like this I’m on the lookout for anything that moves Crimson tide I know when to hold 'em And I know when to leave I know where to go And I know how to breathe I know how you blow Bubbles You can look at the world Til you don’t know what you done You can follow a salary to the bottom of the ocean Is that yours? Throw it in the pond I thought I was smart I’m not I thought I was sick and dying Chicken-shit singers Paying their dues A circus mongrel sniffing for clues You watch the blonde make mincemeat of the brunette An actress pays her debt To Satan again and again I said I don’t know Just ‘cause A child coos sweet nothings to a box of fuzz He’s not a child He’s twenty-five He’s never felt so alive Crimson tide One more dead rich runaway Who gives a shit? Must be nice, must be the rain When lightning strikes twice The funeral goes completely insane The funeral’s insane The funeral’s insane The funeral’s insane Vicious stampede A vile promenade But in china teacups Two fools find love Back at Hotel Paral·lel Hysteria, I can feel it She says "Get into the zone" The zone is brimstone and wire You open your mouth To watch your teeth shudder At the mirror At the clutter Crimson tide"
Can I just say, from the bottom of my heart the depths of my fucking soul, I've been listening to Destroyer for so long now. Even back in the New pornographer days, I love that band but the Bejar cuts always spoke to me. I'm a little Canadian Fuck boi, I grew on the opposite side of the Country that's Dans from staring out at the Atlantic ocean in Labrador no less. And without meandering and getting to oversentimental it makes me so happy, to picture this poet on the other side of this land slab scheming up these crazy irreverent musings. And I get super inspired by this band, it's what I'm listening to when I'm churning my own art when I'm writing when I'm creating when I'm in drunk in the rain at the park or at the pier you feel me. I can't wait for this album, it's all of have to look forward to next year.
Been having a hard time listening to the Purple Mountains LP since the loss of David Berman, but this Destroyer song evokes the same emotion that the PM album did for me. It's dark, lonely, and sad, but at the same time just heartwarming and beautiful. Can't wait to hear more!
"Purple Mountains LP" Thanks for the music recommendation. Its how artists can live forever, people forever discovering what was made during their short stay on this rock. Peace
Even though half the time my reaction is "wtf?", I love listening to Bejar's lyrics unfold. I never know how he's going to finish a line, much more so than most artists.
I love Destroyer ♥️ There’s nothing else quite like them. They lyrics, the auditory aesthetic...just wow. My love for this band is just 💖💖 I love all Destroyer, new and old, but the Kaputt album is easily my favorite. Crimson Tide definitely has a “Bay of Pigs” type feel to it and IM HERE FOR IT. Bay of Pigs, Kaputt, and Downtown were my favorite off the last record so... 😊 I’m a happy camper
If he's gonna be bringing this sonic aesthetic for the whole album then I think the tour will be dope. Just remembering how they reworked old songs for the Kaputt tour makes me extremely excited for it!
Saw him do this live at a solo show back in may and had a feeling it'd be a new Destroyer classic. Glad my feeling was right. Already this record's shaping up to be a step back up from the (still delightful) Ken
Always check my notifications just in case Destroyer releases a new video for an upcoming album release and today was the day I was rewarded with 'Crimson Tide' - and what a reward! More old-school Destroyer lyrics with a big hint o' 'Bay Of Pigs' but NOW with even more pop culture references per minute than ever before. Love Dan Bejar and his music, he has never let me down. Thank you.
Personally, without any comparison, the complete album makes me feel in the same mood that Lloyd & the commotions ( 1st period) and New Order or Revenge with the Pop atmophere. Greatings to Destroyer !
Seen from the name of the group I was expecting something more... heavy. Metal rather, but this is very interesting as well. I'm keeping an eye on Destroyer
This reminds me of a music review I wrote stream of consciousness and said something wildly offensive without meaning to and never deleted or fixed it even though I know now
V funny mate. Just got into this track...oh those moth eaten London accents. Big up Steve Harley, shout out to my man Bolan. Portobello man forever (continued pages 44-7). Over and out. JF x
Literally slapping my head going "why the fuck does no-one else GET THIS?", and at the same time going "thank fuck no-one else gets this. This is mine."
"You watch a blonde make mincemeat of the brunette, an actress pays her debt... to Satan again and again." I think that would be the Harvey Weinstein portion of the song.
I'm not to huge of a fan of his other songs, not that I hate them, just not completely my taste, but this song and video is incredible. I hope the album has more of this vibe.
"The song sat there unattended forever one day the poor thing achieved froze. Most uncold things are seen and if they see you being frozen you thaw out and you die." ,dan'
Morgan Freehafer It looks like this whole video was shot in the Columbia Gorge on the border of WA and OR in the United States. Looks like the river you are looking for is a tributary to the Columbia river.
my great grandpa was struck twice - were all good but lyrically i should note it yeah? we met before- it was amazing before you went into toronto bout 3 years ago
"Metaphors for being led to water may contain: eye batting, hair flipping/tossing, holding her current man closer or leave you holding her purse." ,dan'
This album just gets better and better the more you listen to it. Hands down one of the best albums released this year!!
so true!
Fact
Yes
Still come back to this after I find myself humming it in my head every now and then. Brilliant tune.
Kaputt will forever be my favorite album, I'll always be a fan for Dan's music
Kaput is an album that accompanies me on my road trips. Destroyer and Beach House are ace for road trip getting lost in daydreaming and parallel culture
rubies all day
@Jon Doe streethawk
It is great.
This Night
these guys' music is timeless
CRIMINALLY underrated!
The cinematography and framing is really captivating.
This song is incredible.
" I was like the laziest river
A vulture predisposed to eating off floors
No wait, I take that back
I was more like an ocean
Stuck inside hospital corridors
My condition in general
Despite what they say, improves
So I could care less on a night like this
I’m on the lookout for anything that moves
Crimson tide
I know when to hold 'em
And I know when to leave
I know where to go
And I know how to breathe
I know how you blow
Bubbles
You can look at the world
Til you don’t know what you done
You can follow a salary to the bottom of the ocean
Is that yours?
Throw it in the pond
I thought I was smart
I’m not
I thought I was sick and dying
Chicken-shit singers
Paying their dues
A circus mongrel sniffing for clues
You watch the blonde make mincemeat of the brunette
An actress pays her debt
To Satan again and again
I said I don’t know
Just ‘cause
A child coos sweet nothings to a box of fuzz
He’s not a child
He’s twenty-five
He’s never felt so alive
Crimson tide
One more dead rich runaway
Who gives a shit?
Must be nice, must be the rain
When lightning strikes twice
The funeral goes completely insane
The funeral’s insane
The funeral’s insane
The funeral’s insane
Vicious stampede
A vile promenade
But in china teacups
Two fools find love
Back at Hotel Paral·lel
Hysteria, I can feel it
She says "Get into the zone"
The zone is brimstone and wire
You open your mouth
To watch your teeth shudder
At the mirror
At the clutter
Crimson tide"
Thank you for typing the lyrics.

Best record of 2020 hands down
Still flying in this myriad of 80’s inspired synth rock. God bless you Dan and the boys. Can’t wait for the concert in Texas.
Been having a hard time listening to the Purple Mountains LP since the loss of David Berman, but this Destroyer song evokes the same emotion that the PM album did for me. It's dark, lonely, and sad, but at the same time just heartwarming and beautiful. Can't wait to hear more!
Same here.
I’d love to hear about their recording together at Dan’s studio. I heard David spent a few months in Vancouver
Mega Zord I hear a new meaning every time I hear Margaritas at the Mall 👍
@@cward1890 Thanks, hadn't heard that one so checked it out and love it.
"Purple Mountains LP" Thanks for the music recommendation. Its how artists can live forever, people forever discovering what was made during their short stay on this rock. Peace
“Thought I was smart; I’m not”. That sums me up accurately. Fantastic track! Thanks so much!
One of the best lyricist ever
@@donjon9236 absolutely agreed
I'm not normally one to play songs on repeat but I'm on my 5th listen in a row. 30 minutes of pure aural bliss.
Same.
Multi layered brilliance.
Even though half the time my reaction is "wtf?", I love listening to Bejar's lyrics unfold. I never know how he's going to finish a line, much more so than most artists.
#1 favorite song ~ Crimson Tide. #2 favorite ~ Hi Ren.
I have seen them in the Netherlands! and I was completely blown away! How good they are live and I am so happy with new music
This is the only New music I have let myself listen to. I am not ashamed.
I love Destroyer ♥️ There’s nothing else quite like them. They lyrics, the auditory aesthetic...just wow.

"the last record"? dude has released two albums since kaputt lol
Dan is simply one of the best songwriters on Earth.
No
No.
Abso-fucking-lutely!!!!
Hi Alison's brothers
@@zekeyp OHHHHHH What's up ZEKE (but not the one from the show)??
I just discovered this band today. The lyrics are so incredibly unexpected and intelligent. Will definitely buy the album in real life.
Then listen Kaputt. You will have a great day 😊
Album is brilliant!
Heard this on, National Radio, NZ. Love it.
"I know how you blow... bubbles"
Oh, Dan lmfaooooooo
If he's gonna be bringing this sonic aesthetic for the whole album then I think the tour will be dope. Just remembering how they reworked old songs for the Kaputt tour makes me extremely excited for it!
Can't wait to see him this May!
Sorry this is a late reply, but I love your music! So happy to see you here
Such an underrated band. Only 3 thousand subscribers? Dayum!
So True!!!!
Dan is good isn't he. Like properly good.
he is pretty decent
Tight hug
this song is always in my head when trying to sleep
Saw him do this live at a solo show back in may and had a feeling it'd be a new Destroyer classic. Glad my feeling was right. Already this record's shaping up to be a step back up from the (still delightful) Ken

New album out.
Genius!!
"Gravity doesn't take a thing but hold it down until it becomes naught." ,dan' flies off the handle
Canadian Gainsbourg. Genius.
This song rocks my soul!
Personally, without any comparison, the complete album makes me feel in the same mood that Lloyd & the commotions ( 1st period) and New Order or Revenge with the Pop atmophere. Greatings to Destroyer !
A new discovery.
Bloody brilliant!🌞🌛🙂
amazing music....how does he do it? again and again, album after album ; brilliant guy
Such beauty, as always.
Danny Sexbang really took a turn when Ninja Sex Party broke up
this song is truly breathtaking
"Deadly things were respected long before life was ever dissed because of or for them."
,dan'
Is this true? Did I just really listened to a new destroyer song?
ah, a fellow disciple!
Haha I disliked your comment just because of the fun of it. I be kidding lad
Welp BoJack Horseman ends and this new album comes out on the same day, I don’t know how I’ll handle the emotions at that point
31st January is gonna last a long time
@@eduardlazarus4935 Jeez, you weren't wrong with this comment.
Never clicked on anything faster!
Gimme that tour, baby.
This was the theme music to last summer…I just about died to this song lol…it reminds me to stay alive wen I hear it
Seen from the name of the group I was expecting something more... heavy. Metal rather, but this is very interesting as well. I'm keeping an eye on Destroyer
This reminds me of a music review I wrote stream of consciousness and said something wildly offensive without meaning to and never deleted or fixed it even though I know now
I've never felt so alive
Your amazing Destroyer triple love action!
Still the anti-histrionic type, still the most endearing one.
I really like tha bass guitar here
Si a Ud. no le gusta ¡ Ud. se lo pierde !! Grandes Dan Bejar y Destroyer ( que bajo además )
Genial Destroyer; como siempre.
Gives me the cure vibes and I love it
I was always wondering what it would sound like if James Murphy was cool.
dude.
He'll never be cool after that burn.
just graduated college.
thought i was smawt, still nawt.
well educated dumb people
amazing song
Temazo. Gracias, Dan
Yes, Bejar!!
"May your ghosts haunt you to exactly where you need to be spare wanting running amock to a finish line." ,dan'
January 31st is my birthday. What a present
Wow ........ amazing!!!!!😳👍👍✌
I love how Dan just insouciantly recycles moth-eaten London accents that are down on their luck and have to be used by some one
moth-eaten! haha, brilliant
Damn I just learned a new word for nonchalant.
@@Fuckeverybodyish My exact same thoughts
V funny mate. Just got into this track...oh those moth eaten London accents. Big up Steve Harley, shout out to my man Bolan. Portobello man forever (continued pages 44-7). Over and out. JF x
Sooo sensitive. Brilliant.
Literally slapping my head going "why the fuck does no-one else GET THIS?", and at the same time going "thank fuck no-one else gets this. This is mine."
Could I be the only one watching this during the Great Lockdown?
It is said that every single TH-cam video has been watched during lockdown...
"You watch a blonde make mincemeat of the brunette, an actress pays her debt... to Satan again and again." I think that would be the Harvey Weinstein portion of the song.
I'm not to huge of a fan of his other songs, not that I hate them, just not completely my taste, but this song and video is incredible. I hope the album has more of this vibe.
Dont forget us Aussies....Come to Sydney please!!!!
I'm in 2 minds about this album. Sonically it's not his best work, but lyrically he's as good as ever.
Pretty freaking great.
Rolling Stone sent me here. I want to listen to this again, while really high. Follow us to get cooking. ....
Una canción perfecta
This is properly good this!! 👍
"The song sat there unattended forever one day the poor thing achieved froze. Most uncold things are seen and if they see you being frozen you thaw out and you die." ,dan'
Kaputt II is upon us!
let's hope Dan has made another masterpiece in a dying form
that bass line is killing me
This guy takes a walk on the wild side and I like 😂it
"im in the mood for anything that moves" "when lightning strikes twice the funeral is insane"
some of the craziest and most memorable lyrics all over his albums
Bob Geldoff comeback record?
"There's a tear in my milk and I'm crying for you (rhymes with silk)
,dan'
Who would have ever guessed that Bejar was a college football fan?
"A spark burnt thou down for thee and the ashes that preceded it haunted you before the flame came to.hold you." ,dan'
I'm confused, this channel also hosts the song Cuntface in Italy by The Destroyer?

Does anyone know the river at 2:59, or where that is?
Morgan Freehafer It looks like this whole video was shot in the Columbia Gorge on the border of WA and OR in the United States. Looks like the river you are looking for is a tributary to the Columbia river.
my great grandpa was struck twice - were all good but lyrically i should note it yeah? we met before- it was amazing before you went into toronto bout 3 years ago
Total Stud!
Montreal next March!
Just discovered this cat on RSU Radio on N.E. Oklahoma.
Like a train wreck and My poor grandma wondering the hospital corridors naked, you honestly don't wanna look, but you can't help it!
Nice music bro i enjoy it
