商品の紹介

2011年にリリースされた9thアルバム『カプット』がピッチフォークの年間ベスト・アルバム第2位に選ばれる等世界中から称賛を浴びたデストロイヤーが新曲5曲入りのEPをリリース!中心人物、ダン・ベイハーが英語よりもスペイン語に魅力を感じ大ファンだったスペインのバンド、サー・チナロのアントニオ・ルクエにアプローチしたことから始まったこの作品はダンが全編スペイン語で歌いアントニオによって曲が書かれた。『カプット』も手掛けたJC/DCがプロデュースを手掛け、ブラック・マウンテンのジョシュ・ウェルズがゲストとして参加している。先行トラックの「El Rito」は正にスペインの陽気が反映された様なロック・ナンバーとなっている。長らく待たれるニューアルバムの試金石ともなる必聴EP!

発売・販売元提供資料（2013/10/21）

CMJ - "While Bejar is making a nod to his Spanish heritage, he has also chosen to release songs that roll off the tongue to chillingly sobering affect." Paste (magazine) - "FIVE SPANISH SONGS is clearly more than a mere genre exercise -- it's a respectful, and very much tuneful, tip of the cap from one songwriter to another, which transcends language."

Rovi

Dan Bejar, the walking, talking, and singing definition of following your own muse, spent the last couple of years lugging around a full horn section in support of his slick and soulful 2011 sophisti-pop outing Kaputt, so it should come as no surprise that anything goes (musically) on this stopgap EP of covers of songs composed by Antonio Luque, the frontman for goth-tinged Spanish alt-rock outfit Sr. Chinarro. Not surprisingly, Luque, a verbose and enigmatic lyricist, is the perfect match for Bejar (they're also both hirsute rock & roll outliers), and the five-track collection requires little in the way of translation, as Bejar's alternately manic and laconic delivery somehow manages to keep breezy, Rioja-sipping confections like "Maria de las Nieves," buffed-up AOR rockers like "El Rito," and disco ball-lit fever dreams like "Babieca" in the same room together, despite their frequent stylistic attempts at escape. ~ James Christopher Monger
