CRITIC REVIEWS

80
Tiny Mix Tapes

For being as spare as it is, Zomes’ music is incredibly full while maintaining a hazy, idealistic distance.

70
AllMusic

Still entrenched in disciplined modal drones and repetition, the group existing as a duo adds new color and dimension to its meditative sounds, giving the listener a sense of real mystery and excitement in what once felt simply obscured.

70
The 405

Zomes comes across as particularly intriguing, throwing ambient, noise, pop and drone influences into the mix to produce an album which is meditative and spacious.

60
Consequence of Sound

Time Was is a relaxed record, one that thrives on its melancholic mood. The pace is slow and methodical, but never boring.

50
PopMatters

While there’s obvious potential in the Osborne-Hannah pairing, this ain’t some kind of wild, Traveling Wilbury’s collaboration, where the weight of expectation met sheer talent and spat out a winning record
