Destroyer - Blue Flower/Blue Flame

I gave you a flower because foxes travel light
Another Monday, another ace Canadian talent who impressively makes a virtue of verbosity. Having freed himself from the indie-Bowie tag, Dan Bejar's songs have gotten more inscrutable and also more inviting. Trouble in Dreams is succulently bombastic, overloaded with ideas and vocal affectation, and just the right thing for a night drive back into the city after the long day in greener places. This is probably not the album's best track, but like any good lead-off man, it sets the stage for a big inning.
