The Foxygen machine (that would be Jagjaguwar) is revving up in support of the band’s impending new album We Are The 21st Century Ambassadors of Peace & Magic.  After being completely wowed by their energetic live performances at CMJ and LeGuessWho? Festival, we confess we were comparatively nonplussed by Foxygen’s recently-released official video (watchable at bottom) for their song San Francisco (as much as we love the City).  Not to worry.  Below is a new stream of another San Francisco paean by the band entitled No Destruction that’s completely destroyed us (in a peaceful way).  As much as we love all of our favorite Brooklyn-based musicians, we love the LA-cum-New York band’s retro sound on the song and their diss of Brooklyn (maybe it’s just a Nets thing).  Foxygen’s Kinks/Velvet Underground pastiche is really growing on us (we have to ask though:  grandma lost her arms in the war?).  The band will make its way to San Francisco and LA in mid-February (dates below the videos).  Check ’em out below.
