"You'll be hard pressed to find legitimate faults in 'And Then He Dreamed...' Not many unsigned bands can channel the likes of Brand New and Manchester Orchestra without blatantly ripping them off, but The Comeback Tour pulls this feat off extraordinarily well, while adding a significant degree of originality at the same time." ABSOLUTEPUNK.NET
"The Comeback Tour's 'And Then He Dreamed...' is a blend of As Cities Burn (pre-Solid State) and Further Seems Forever (How to Start a Fire era) with a dash of The Colour Revolt for extra flavoring. What comes out of that blender is of course a style primed for poetic lyrics and songs that are spacious and melodic yet edgy and powerful." INDIE VISION MUSIC
"Reminiscent of As Cities Burn and Sherwood, The Comeback Tour are bringing Christian rock back where it's 'sposed to be--raw, tight, and spiritual." REZURRECTED
The Comeback Tour breathe life into scripture through a modern rock sound that is somewhere between Cool Hand Luke and Further Seems Forever... Further evidence that “making all things new” can be done in a modern vibe, and done successfully. THE PHANTOM TOLLBOOTH
"Separated out into three distinct movements, 'Apologizing the Broadcast' is an ambitious endeavor to say the least. Led by a rock group unafraid of dazzling anyone with their supreme chops, the album is sparkling with elements of noise pop, indie rock, and tons of attitude. This is meant for the crowd who loves both directions the indie rock scene turned once Hot Water Music leapt onto the scene." SMOTHER MAGAZINE
"Intelligent, literate rock that builds on its influences without ripping them off... The Comeback Tour’s sound is a wonderful throwback to old indie rock and emo bands, recalling crunchy vocals and sensitive themes. Quite honestly, listening to 'Apologizing the Broadcast' was an exercise in nostalgia and enthusiasm for the band’s skills in musicianship and songwriting." INDEPENDENT CLAUSES
