"With poignant vocals laid over hauntingly mesmeric piano or guitar, each track is deeply contemplative, offering narcotized instructions about how to break free from the past." - The Fader "For most good artists, there’s is a deliberate decision behind each aspect of a song, poem, painting, etc. And with a name like Nearly Oratorio, you can probably guess that Lam isn’t making empty aesthetic choices." - Stereogum "Nearly Oratorio is doing something unexpected with “Tin”, which is why Lam deserves all of the praise he receives." - Earmilk "With more and more listens, it becomes increasingly clear that Tin shouldn’t be pigeon-holed as melancholy, becoming much more of an emotional experience as a result of the level of intimacy with his audience that Lam has achieved." - Howl and Echoes
