Destroyer has announced a new album called Dan’s Boogie. Dan Bejar’s upcoming LP lands March 28, via Merge, following his 2022 full-length Labyrinthitis. Today, Bejar has shared lead single “Bologna,” featuring vocals from Fiver’s Simone Schmidt. The song arrives with a David Galloway–directed music video featuring banal snapshots of daily life: the hardware store, cityscapes, frozen peas, and a cat, among other things. Check it out below, and scroll down for the album art and tracklist.
“I haven’t written many songs like ‘Bologna,’” Bejar said in press materials. “I struggled singing the first and third verses, the most important parts of the song. They needed gravity and grit. The threat of disappearing needed to be real. So I called Simone.”
Bejar is currently on tour supporting Father John Misty. Revisit Pitchfork’s 2022 interview “Dan Bejar Breaks Down the Gloriously ‘Incoherent’ New Destroyer Album.”
