Destroyer, have dropped new single and video, “June,” directed by David Galloway and Destroyer’s Dan Bejar. The track was written with long-term collaborator John Collins from opposing states of isolation, and follows singles “Tintoretto, It’s for You” and “Eat the Wine, Drink the Bread,” off the Vancouver band’s forthcoming release LABYRINTHITIS.

A quote from David Galloway on the song: “Is it spring where you are? I think June is technically summer, but that’s not the point I’m trying to make. The flowers are starting to come out now, and the birds sure as hell are. There it was; the future just flew by. What’s the quorum on something like that?”

Bejar and Collins conducted their questing in the height of isolation, Collins on the remote Galiano Island and Bejar in nearby Vancouver, sending ideas back and forth when restrictions didn’t allow them to meet. Ahead of mixing, the Destroyer band was brought into the fold to further the unprepared synchronicity and mutual discovery.
