Exclaim! Praises Beams’ Thoughtfulness On New LP Requiem For A Planet

“Recorded in a secluded barn nested in the Shawangunk mountains in New Paltz, NY, ” Exclaim! writes about Beams’ new LP, “Requiem for a Planet evokes the deep-ache feeling of memories being passed through generations, a set of oral teachings that works to catalogue all the beauty that once grew from our long-destroyed home… Every note of Requiem for a Planet has been thoughtfully placed to create a communal space for its own storytelling. Beams has a powerful understanding of the power of empty space, using long, patient breaths of silence… the emptiness between each sound holds an entire universe.” Read the full review here.
