“There are passages of profound beauty and clarity amid the maelstrom” – Pitchfork“Meditative moments of almost spiritual intensity shifting into caustic tumult” – The Wire
“This is a deeply personal record. But the magic of A Requiem is in the way Trappes carries us with her - out of the darkness and into the light” – Bandcamp Daily
“Beautifully harrowing music with little regard for the rule book” – Prog
“Spellbinding fifth album… a shadow work laced with black-veiled hope” - Line OF Best Fit
“…a deconstructed Björk meets Diamanda Galás on Nico's Desertshore is a glib but effective triangulation” - Uncut
“It’s a deeply personal exploration that somehow also touches a raw nerve of universal emotion, in a way that few artists possess the power to do” – Electronic Sound
“An unflinching exploration of darkness” - Vinyl Factory
“It's sacred music that exists in its own diocese, tracing an outline of recognisable hymns but emphasising the negative space” - Boomkat
“…engulfing sombre atmosphere” - Crack
“Trappes has a strong sense of dichotomy, that every aural high has a low, the smooth always has the rough, the light is brought down by the heavy” – The Quietus
