    So many wonderful things happen on Lenses Alien that you can't possibly remember them all. The only solution, of course, is to listen again.

    The best thing about Lenses Alien: its incessant begging for you to spin it again.

    Lenses Alien harnesses the singular vision of singer and guitarist Joseph D'Agostino to finely nuanced, feedback-soused art-rock. [Nov 2011, p.83]
