For whatever reason, Destroyer was not in my early-2010’s high school era rotation. Only have listened to Kaputt so far but I’m grooooving with it

One of my favorite bands ever, who I go back to often. With their new record coming, I was going back into the catalog and realized I was missing out on this one.
Destroyer is an artist with a broad discog, encompassing different styles and palettes, with stylistic motifs connecting every record. As an early Destroyer album, City of Daughters is a rewarding listen, because it shows Bejar and Co in the midst of developing those motifs we know and have loved for nearly three decades and running.

Someone rec’ed this as a front to back listen through album. S/O for that and for reigniting my Rilo Kiley kick

One of the least talked-about GOAT double albums ever.
I think I caught the band live for the first time on the “Sister” tour that preceded it - I’d never seen or heard anyone abuse guitars in such a creative and unusual way before that (or since).
Not a dud track on it.
A mind-blowing, life-altering, perspective-forming monster of a release. I was and have remained a fan ever since (and Kim Gordon is a goddess, I’ll go down with that particular ship forever).
When someone says “best NYC art rock” this is automatically my go-to reaction. Like a gallery showing for a new artist you can’t wait to tell your friends about. 🖤
P.S.: Yes it sucks that they're gone and I blame Thurston, of course.

Get a haircut, get rid of some clothes you haven’t worn in years, get a new houseplant, get in touch with the changing season, get grounded, get stoned, get in touch with some old friends, get some ice cream, get going

Friends you met out in the neighborhood at a bar or park or cafe or wherever a couple times and struck up a rapport with.
You don’t have eachother’s phone numbers, no social media info.
I have a couple friends like this and it’s been such a nice social change up. Always a pleasant surprise to bump into them out and about.
