"a'tris play a multi-textured blend of alt and pop rock, walking a fine line between experimentation and formulation. These guys have "future superstars" written all over them, and I'll be enjoying this album over and over until they're ready to push the envelope a little further."

"‘Equally influenced by Radiohead, Jeff Buckley, Muse, and Coldplay.' Picture if Radiohead continued on a more mainstream path after OK Computer -- instead of getting all schizophrenic on us -- and it might have sounded an awful lot like A'tris' ‘Lensing.'"

"Extensive rhythmic programming combined with piano, acoustic (and electric) guitars and more. The songs themselves are vaguely math-like, with a definite Gothic pop lean. Mannered moodiness is a fine sound to appropriate. Quite appealing."
- Jon Worley, Aiding & Abetting

Metro Spirit
"“Lensing,” has a sound that distorts the perception of time and distance, perhaps much like a spotlight on a stage projected towards a curtain and the transitional pause of wondering what the next scene will entail."
- Arthur Groneman, Metro Spirit
