Destroyer: Labyrinthitis [Merge]

Dan Bejar is back with his latest Destroyer LP. Labyrinthitis follows 2020’s Have We Met. Bejar wrote most of the LP in 2020 and recorded it the following spring during the height of isolation. He created Labyrinthitis with longtime collaborator and producer John Collins and the Destroyer band. Bejar and Collins swapped ideas remotely—Bejar posted up at home in Vancouver, and Collins on Galiano Island. Bejar shared “Tintoretto, It’s for You,” “Eat the Wine, Drink the Bread,” and “June” ahead of the album.
