    Other songs are colored with words and phrases of despair and resignation, like "doubt," "losing my grip," and "let's just break up." If the productions weren't so richly detailed and deceptively varied, Escapements might be a stifling experience.

    This is a strong record that's all the more powerful for being so wonderfully, majestically disjointed.

    Their emotional post-club grooves are the real star. [Mar 2016, p.95]

    If there's a new sense of release in Beacon's music, the same can't be said of their lyrics. A familiar atmosphere of heartbroken reflection and pent-up frustration prevails.

    A late night journey of the highest order.
