Samples from the album
William Basinski has long had a reputation as a leading creator of profound meditations on death and decay, but on his new album Lamentations he transforms operatic tragedy into bottomless beauty. More than any work since The Disintegration Loops, there's an ominous sadness throughout the album, and the sense of loss lingers like an emotional haze.
Captured and compiled from tape loops and studies from the Basin Archive - dating back to 1979 - the Lamentations album is more than forty years' worth of mournful sighs carefully crafted into songs. They are shaped by the inevitable passage of time and the undeniable collapse of space - and their collective resonance is infinite and eternal.
