Bombastic and bold at times, quiet and soothing at others, Your Blues has an almost theatrical quality that informs the compositions. Originally released Destroyer on CD in 2004, Destroyer’s sixth studio album is now widely available on vinyl, as the December installment in Your Blues the Merge25 reissue series. Recorded with the production duo JC/DC (aka David (reissue) Carswell and John Collins) -- who aided in the creation of Destroyer’s first three discs -- Dan Bejar ditches the band format he used for 2002’s This Night with tremendous results. Fusing a dramatic vocal style akin to that of David Bowie in the 1970s with 1980s studio achievers like Microdisney and Prefab Sprout, Your Blues is regularly 180g LP breathtaking. 2 December 2014 vinyl is non-returnable KEY NOTES & PAST PRESS: • First time available on vinyl outside of Canada Box Lot: LP 25 • LP pressed to 180g & includes coupon for full album download UPC: 673855023816 • Destroyer’s sixth studio album; originally released in 2004 Format: LP is jacket + printed insert + 180g vinyl + full album download coupon • 8.6 PITCHFORK album review for Your Blues (2004) File Under: Alternative • “2004’s early front-runner for art rock album of the year.” Export: World excluding North America --ALL MUSIC GUIDE.

  • The New Pornographers
    The New Pornographers For what purpose the popular song? Does the popular song have a purpose? Is it just a sequence of auditory gestures, desperate acts, adrift in the bigger broader silence of an unforgiving cultural landscape? In what follows, we will assume that the purpose of the popular song is to unite warring disputants and to repair the manifold puncture wounds of life, so that life is revealed, again, as less accursed than it appears. And let’s assume that we go on listening to the popular song, which in the vast majority of its iterations is a failure, because we are chronic in our need for this rehabilitation of our puncture-wounded selves. Take any fine example, take “All You Need Is Love,” by the Beatles, or “Walk Away, Renee,” by the Left Banke, or “Tears of a Clown,” by Smokey Robinson. Try listening to these songs. Almost immediately, your suppurations begin to clot. Into this tryingly difficult history of the popular song stride The New Pornographers, into a period in which it has to be acknowledged that the medium is mostly dead, is passed, is no longer a uniting force, but, more frequently, a medium of division, one entirely controlled by the Ownership Society and made profitable according to shareholders who don’t give a fuck if your puncture wounds are healed over as long as the product ships. The New Pornographers, stunningly, do not seem to understand that the popular song is dead, is passed, and The New Pornographers, despite their complete and nearly monastic understanding of the Secret Knowledge of the popular song, will themselves into being, characterized by a uniform devotion to the great history that precedes them by only a couple of decades, and their coming into being in a somewhat unlikely place, Vancouver, not previously noted for a unvarying profusion of rock genius, is particular not only for uniformity of purpose but because they manage, in this uniformity, to bring a considerable cast of local adepts all as one into the tent.

  • Sunset Rubdown Random Spirit Lover
    SUNSET RUBDOWN RANDOM SPIRIT LOVER The Mending Of The Gown The woven lyrics and singular songwriting style heard in Sunset Rubdown invoke a mythological Magic Vs. Midas world, where magical narratives and tiny metaphors give shape to ordinary objects in the room; Up On Your Leopard, Upon The End sometimes beautiful, sometimes beastly. The moniker was first born to bear the solo bedroom Of Your Feral Days recordings of Spencer Krug, but has since evolved into a full-fledged band, involving the vital The Courtesan Has Sung contributions of fellow Montreal residents Jordan Robson Cramer, Michael Doerksen, and Camilla Wynne Ingr. Winged/Wicked Things Colt Stands Up, Grows Horns Now enter Sunset Rubdown’s third full-length record, Random Spirit Lover, featuring twelve songs Stallion that bleed in and out of each other, mixing portents with theatrics, confusions with conversions. For The Pier (And Dead Shimmering) The dark glamour of the music beneath the half-baked revelations in rhyme creates a tone of high The Taming Of The Hands That drama, blown-out and overt, but the stage is wild and the roles aren’t clear, so the sincerity of the Came Back To Life work and the spontaneity of the recordings can’t help but shine through the formality of structure. In short, listening to Random Spirit Lover is like watching schoolchildren in a dress rehearsal for the Setting Vs. Rising annual Easter play. And though they aren’t old enough to know the occasion is anything more than Trumpet, Trumpet, Toot! Toot! pastel-painted eggs and edible bunnies, they wear the fake beards with confidence and style.

  • Dan Bejar on Having No Process
    November 20, 2017 - As told to T. Cole Rachel, 2217 words. Tags: Music, Process, Collaboration, Success, Anxiety, Inspiration. Dan Bejar on having no process There’s a quote from you: “I’m lazy. I have no work ethic. Music just descends on me. The song kind of wafts by and I walk into it.” It’s a nice way to describe the mystery of the creative process. Though, for someone who’s recorded well over 20 albums over the past two decades, you do seem to have a fairly strong work ethic. Maybe I do. I think I write more than a lot of people without actually realizing it. My mind is always blown when people take six or seven years between albums. I’m just like, “Woah, what do you do with your time?” [laughs] I think I do have a work ethic when it comes to being in the studio, because to me the music part of things—coming up with a song, coming up with a bunch of words that truss together nicely and have some kind of melodic phrase that feels natural and memorable—has always seemed more mysterious and not like work somehow. But the studio is like a battle. The studio is like a war. Records certainly haven’t gotten easier to make over time. I think about writers who are kind of like poets, people who will sit down and write endlessly and then overwrite and whittle things down and edit and edit, basically carving away at ideas in an attempt to get to what is essential in their words.
