Damon & Naomi - Within These Walls - PopMatters Music Review
Popmatters has an excellent in depth review of Damon & Naomi’s Within These Walls…
For an album that musically emulates a moment of stillness preceding potential utter devastation, it manages a surprising amount of diversity. The strings, horns, and Kurihara’s guitar are part of this, as their appearances are carefully arranged to maximize the musical and emotional effect.
