Sounds Like"An orchestral pop gem if there ever was one." -PopMatters

"Dream pop's long awaited changing of the guard." -Magnet

"An impressive debut to say the least, and is, without question, orchestral pop at it's finest." -Venus

"Venice is Sinking rivals the best ambient rock bands. The harmonies and orchestral feel of the tracks transcend their genre, making it not simply slow music, but experimental, uplifting, and fascinating." -Paste

"...an engaging and beautiful piece of slowcore." -Under The Radar

"...with its co-ed harmonies and wandering streams of dense melodies, it is the perfect soundtrack for unexpected overcast days. -Pitchfork Media

"...some of lushest, most beautifully orchestrated pop I’ve heard this year." -NPR

"...AZAR finds Venice Is Sinking expanding on the orchestral, ambient, pop that initially caught my ear invoking the mellower side of Yo La Tengo/Mojave 3." -Aquarium Drunkard
