The unpredictable and always captivating Dan Bejar, the soul behind Destroyer, arrives in town to present his twelfth effort. Known for never making the same record twice, Bejar offers ten songs on Have We Met, produced in the company of his guitarist John Collins. Without abandoning the theatrical tone that has always characterized his work, nor his Bowiesque aspect, Destroyer is slightly less sinister or gothic than on his two previous records, with a few pieces showing a much more lighthearted tone. Without saying that this album – initially conceived to be entirely instrumental – is downright playful, it remains perhaps more accessible for anyone who’s not familiar with Bejar’s strange work. By his own admission, the Vancouver-based musician and singer was inspired by Leonard Cohen’s last records, soundtracks such as Pretty In Pink and White Nights, as well as… 1980s hip-hop.
