Destroyer’s Rubies
Pinder has the first good-quality scan of the cover for Destroyer’s Rubies that I’ve seen on the interweb, go check it out. UPDATE: It’s from Amazon.
I am absolutely *certain* now that this record is going to be huge. Though I *do not* believe Pfork will give it a 10.0 as many are saying, I do think they’ll go above a 9.0; a 9.2, maybe? (which is still off; even Matt’s reviews of Destroyer classics top out at 8.6!) But, yes, I do believe 2006 will definitely be Dan’s year. About damn time.
Oh, and Pinder also points out that Scratch are doing the vinyl up as a Double LP with a 4th side of Destroyer/Loscil remixes.
2006 Destroyer Tour Dates:
I guess the tour technically starts off with Destroyer’s SXSW 2006 show(s), 3/15 - 3/19 (btw, if anyone has an extra $525 badge lying around, be sure to throw it my way). The tour-proper w/Magnolia Elec begins right after: Update: Contrary to what the SXSW website says, Destroyer will not, in fact, be appearing at SXSW.

One last thing, note that the Streethawk LJ Community has puzzled together the complete lyrics for Destroyer’s Rubies. Sheesh!
