Reviews:
...”When the band rock out in a ’Four Minute Mile’-era The Get Up Kids way they’re sublime and among the best UK bands around."-punktastic.com
...”Whilst the rest of the nation seem to be busying themselves with superficial songs about nights on the town and annoying siblings and partners, Portman have quietly given us a truly masterful album which will touch more than just your eyes and ears... Producer, synthist and programmer, James K. Sanford proves to be a feather in the cap for Portman, he is a man not afraid of chaos, but knows how to reign it all in at a moments notice, and his remix for final track “The Last Broadcast” is truly exceptional.”-strangeglue.com
..."Portman’s greatest strength on From Here To Your Eyes And Ears is putting together numbers that careen from acoustic ballad to strident indie rock and back again in the same song without feeling overly experimental or disconnected."-faceinthecrowd.wordpress.com

Reviews:
...”Painfully catchy."-Luke Leighfield-A Short Fanzine About Rocking
...”It is the space in between lost and found in which Lost On Campus shines with charming insecurity and lyrics you will want to scribble all over your next notebook.”-Big Cheese Magazine
