destroyer - kaputt

Kaputt by Destroyer is a lush, atmospheric dive into soft rock, jazz-pop, and 1980s-inspired synths. Released in 2011, the album sees Dan Bejar’s unique lyrical style paired with smooth, dreamy instrumentals that blend saxophones, trumpets, and shimmering electronics.

Tracks like “Chinatown,” “Kaputt,” and “Savage Night at the Opera” capture a sense of nostalgic elegance and urban melancholy, as Bejar’s cryptic, poetic lyrics float over rich, laid-back grooves. Kaputt is a sophisticated, genre-blurring work, offering listeners a stylish, immersive world that feels both detached and emotionally resonant, making it one of Destroyer's most acclaimed releases.
