Destroyer about to make some Trouble on the road

After kicking some serious SXSW booty last week at one of the Paste/Stereogum day parties, Destroyer is showing no signs of ceasing momentum. Tuesday (March 18) marked the release of the Dan Bejar-fronted project’s 8th studio album, Trouble in Dreams.

Bejar has been working round the clock over the past year, touring with The New Pornographers throughout 2007 and releasing his latest side project, Hello, Blue Roses, this past January. Destroyer will embark on a spring tour in mid-April in support of the newborn release. Shows will continue into the early days of summer.
