Feb 04, 2013 Beach House By Mike Hilleary

Back in December dream pop duo Beach House announced that they would release a special musical short film titled Forever Still. This morning the finished product debuted online featuring the band performing four tracks from their third album Bloom.

Shot on location near Tornillo, TX and filmed over three nights the band issued a statement saying “We had previously been involved in too many live sessions, radio tapings, photo shoots, etc., where the outcome was far below our personal artistic standards. We also felt a need to distance ourselves from the ‘content’ culture of the internet that rewards quantity over quality and shock over nuance ... Forever Still is directly inspired by Pink Floyd’s Live at Pompeii. We wanted to perform in a non-typical setting without losing the spirit of our music. We felt the songs would resonate in a more majestic and spiritual landscape ... We tried to keep the edits minimal with long takes in order to focus on the energy of the songs, the landscape, and the physicality of live performance.”
