"Searching for a new dimension, New Zealand polymath creates a niche world and pushes its boundaries beyond event horizon. Partly unplugged yet entirely electrifying." Dmme.net (Toronto, Canada)
"Artists of the 60's / 70's alternative and psychedelic rock era are considered untouchable by many, but Morris is here and he's tapping the glass." Out From The Pine Box (Nashville, USA)
“You can hear a wide range of influences, but the style is 100% his own. Slow Loris has got to be one of the strongest debut releases in recent years." NZmuzic.net (Auckland, New Zealand)
"Slow Loris is impressive, both the writing and the dynamic, spacious production (some of the best I've heard from a local release). But it's not an easy listen.... And he knows it." Otago Daily Times (Dunedin, New Zealand)
