Destroyer were in the midst of a massive tour in support of their recent Have We Met LP when the coronavirus pandemic cut everything short. Now, Dan Bejar has shared a new music video for the album's "foolssong."
The clip was directed by David Galloway and David Ehrenreich, who were filming on the road during the band's tour.
In a joint statement, the directors reveal that the video was intended for a larger project.
