Background and Composition
Destroyers, Duffer's debut single was released on February 26, 2019. The single was the first of a number of independent singles released by Duffer. Each of the songs on the record with the exception of 'Faded af' were among the first singles penned by Duffer. Planned to be debuted during "TIDUS DUFFER COACHELLA", Faded af is an urban inspired song with the intent of being "tacky" and "controversial". Is, Fast Car, and Gazing are a trio of rock songs with 'Is' being inspired by What Ever Happened by The Strokes, appearing on the 2006 teen biographical film, "Marie Antoinette". Fast Car, is inspired by the future of the world and idealizes what a futuristic society would be like inspired by the fast paced setting of "Ghost In The Shell". Gazing is a song tackling homophobia and unrequited love. Original, a song referencing various films such as Sorority Row, The Haunting in Connecticut, and other Japanese animated films such as Laputa: Castle In The Sky, explains why Duffer is the only of his kind. The song contains the highest number of pop culture references to date in Duffer's career and a number of his personal favorite movies. Sibuna, a tribute to the 2011 show House of Anubis, is a dark experimental track. Both Original and Sibuna beckon each other with their dark, experimental, seemingly twisted sounds.
