Sep 18, 2015Ad Infinitum isn’t a palette cleanser or a holdover to the next conventional Telekinesis album--it’s a deeply affecting piece of work at a visceral level, suggesting that Lerner is an artist with crashing ambitions who’s willing to risk alienating his audience.
-
Sep 24, 2015Lerner's easy and reliable delivery is the glue that keeps everything together, and while there's little doubt that Ad Infinitum was conceived and created during a time of artistic upheaval, it retains all of the warmth and humanity that's made his prior outings shine.

MagnetSep 17, 2015While not as immediate a confection as past releases Ad Infinitum is Telekinesis' Golden Record. [No. 124, p.61]
-
Sep 17, 2015On its own, Ad Infinitum is more than a solid album, marrying friendly and upbeat melodies with dark New Wave tones. It does focus in on a more coherent vibe than Dormarion, but misses some of the eccentricity.
-
Sep 17, 2015Even if parts of Ad Infinitum might not come off, it's worth remembering that Lerner had to teach himself how to play half the instruments featured from the ground up. Still in his 20s, it feels like the project is another string to his bow as a musician, rather than a defining turn of direction.
-
Sep 23, 2015While not entirely experimental, Ad Infinitum explores darker and more mysterious territory than Telekinesis has in the past, a fitting direction for this more mechanical journey.
-
Oct 8, 2015This is thoughtful music for thoughtful listeners, and it is all the more rewarding for it.
-
UncutSep 25, 2015An adept stylistic reboot. [Nov 2015, p.83]
-
Sep 18, 2015He has freed himself up enough here to find a renewed sense of purpose, without losing sight of what has drawn listeners to his music in the first place.
-
Sep 17, 2015The songs he summons from the synths offer proof that there were more songs left in him, but he's still digging in the same mine. Ad Infinitum might be the sound of an artist challenging himself, but it's not the sound of an artist challenging his listeners.
