Paste Magazine On-line had TTS as Band of the Week: "The sterling indie pop of Lazarus Beach is a welcome breath of fresh air from a band that clearly loves music without pretense or posturing. Each track is finely tuned to appeal to the music geek in every listener, full of bouncy, loping piano melodies and softly-muted horns that support verbose, clever lyrics."

Good New Music.com says about Lazarus Beach: "It's apparent on first listen that they're studio rats - the overdubbing is so thick it requires a knife. No wonder the album was a year in the making. But when the intricate soundscapes and melancholy harmonies bring to mind Wilson's "Smile," Wilco's "Summerteeth" and the Waterboys' "This Is the Sea," it's happy slogging."
