Damon & Naomi's A Sky Record round-up
Here are a few bits and pieces that have appeared since Damon & Naomi’s gorgeous A Sky Record was released a couple of months back:
Reviews
- Tyler Wilcox reviews the album for Aquarium Drunkard
This is one of Damon & Naomi’s most purely gorgeous sounding records — and considering the glories of what’s come before, that’s a real accomplishment.
- Louder Than War gives the album 4/5
There isn’t a dramatic re-invention here, picking up at a similar end point. But there’s renewed clarity and purpose with A Sky Record all the same.
- Pitchfork give the album 7.2
A Sky Record is especially generous with Kurihara’s majestic guitar, which is as much of a draw as Damon & Naomi’s calming melodies.
For listening
- Damon & Naomi have a lengthy discussion of A Sky Record, and Sky Records on the Free Association podcast
- They also have a nice chat on the Aquarium Drunkard podcast
For watching
You can still watch the lovely film they made at The Peabody Essex Museum premiering the album
