Aquarius Records made Lost In Reflections their "Record Of The Week" a
few months ago: "The final track is a monster, nearly 20 minutes,
imagine Nadja, Merzbow and Tim Hecker covering Arvo Part, and you
might be close"

The full review is available in their archive:

Self-titled made Lost In Reflections their "From The Stacks Pick Of
The Week": "Some of the most mournful, and melancholic, ‘drone music’
we’ve ever heard."

And finally a great review on Side-line.com:

"The further it progresses the deeper Ekelund descends into the uneasy
darkness until we reach the epic 19 minute finale of
"Himmelschriebenden Herzen", a truly epic track resplendent with
layered drones, martial drums, soaring guitar tones and an orchestral
backing. "Lost In Reflections" is an intense voyage into the psyche of
a man with a story to tell."
