    It's reliably hypnotic stuff, although the final two seemingly interminable tracks d o expose Stallones' rather rudimentary chops. [Sep 2011, p.96]

    The altered states of Cameron Stallones' latest Sun Araw effort Ancient Romans are an acquired taste.

    As with every other Sun Araw album, appreciating the 80-minute entirety of Ancient Romans requires a high level of patience in order to uncover the record's best moments of mysticism and wonder. But while Ancient Romans doesn't always make captivating music, it does create awesome scenery.

    While Sun Araw's last proper album, 2010's On Patrol, felt carefully planned amidst all of the controlled chaos, Ancient Romans seems to wander for too long without aim or purpose.
