"An explosion is worth a hundred million words. And that is maybe too many words to say," So says the final line on Labyrinthitis, the new album by Destroyer.

Dan Bejar may not be up to a hundred million words yet, but across thirteen albums with Destroyer and more than a few collaborations, he's created his fair share of beloved lyrics - building a cult following that sometimes crosses over into a mainstream embrace.

In the Drawing Room, Dan talks about Chekov, Cher, and acts of futility in the face of insurmountable odds.
