Lucas was interviewed in Popmatters!
"[AZAR] feels like an old friend; a mellow orchestral pop album soaked in limpid pools of keyboard, Low/Ida vocal harmonies...and subtly psychedelic touches" – Magnet
"...a foggy, majestic collection of slowcore anthems" – Under The Radar
"Venice is Sinking has appeal that can transcend those who simply like slow music...sitting still during the playing of AZAR, while certainly acceptable, wouldn't do it proper justice. Four stars." – 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
"...back with their sophomore album AZAR, they have outdone themselves in every way." – Popmatters
"...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
"It belongs right up there with the best work of Yo La Tengo: Experimental but grounded, sad but hopeful, and always, always fascinating." – Berkeley Place
"It recalls some of the best elements of 90s ambient post-rock while breathing fresh energy into the genre. Sunny vocal harmonies and eclectic instrumentation blending rock and orchestral instruments create an inviting surface." – Christian Carey, Sequenza21
