We know Dan Bejar<\/strong> has recently been singing five or more songs in Spanish on a solo “Destroyer” tour<\/strong><\/a>, which is all bueno<\/em>, but we are hoping for a return soon to the mode found on Destroyer’s\u00a0<\/strong>Best of 2011<\/strong><\/a> album Kaputt<\/strong><\/em>.\u00a0 Kaputt<\/strong><\/em> remains a masterpiece from head to toe.\u00a0 Perhaps Bejar<\/strong> feels he can reach no higher.\u00a0 Perhaps the risk\/reward calculus reads kaput. \u00a0 Regardless, our Destroyer<\/strong> desire was rekindled recently by two live performances in 2011 of Kaputt’s<\/strong><\/em> masterful Song For America<\/strong><\/em>.\u00a0 First, check out below the performance captured on video by iCat fm<\/strong><\/em>.\u00a0 Whatever you do, hang in until 3:37 when the band truly takes flight.\u00a0 Afterwards, listen to the song performed and recorded superbly on KEXP<\/strong>.\u00a0 When ya comin’ back in full Bejar<\/strong>?\u00a0 Destroy us softly and soon.<\/p>\n
