Daniel Leopold speaks of the inspiration behind "Waves (Golden)": "Don't sell yourself short. You're more valuable than you recognize just yet. A nod to the weight it takes to believe in yourself." Watch Daniel talk more about the making of "Waves (Golden)" here.

Leopold and His Fiction have also released their cover of Leonard Cohen's "Hey, That's No Way To Say Goodbye," done in tribute after his recent passing. Watch the video and read Daniel's thoughts on the song here.

Throughout Darling Destroyer, Leopold and His Fiction reveal their gritty ingenuity by merging delicately crafted lyrics with blistering guitar work. Co-produced by Daniel, Vance Powell and Chris "Frenchie" Smith (...And You Will Know Us By The Trail of Dead, Ringo Deathstarr, Jet), Darling Destroyer proves Daniel's easy prowess as a frontman, his vocals endlessly shifting from brutal wail to tender serenade.
