"Pulpa de cuentos de hadas, fáciles para entrar, y tan difíciles de dejar atrás"
- Robert Everett-Green, The Globe & Mail


"Déjenme decir esto: Infiniheart es un impresionante logro que muestra perfectamente los muchos talentos de Vangaalen - cantante, letrista, compositor, productor y arreglista (e ilustrador)- y aunque su longitud épica puede ser una experiencia desagradable en un principio, no tendrás muchas escuchas antes de clamar por más. "
- Scott Reid, Coke Machine GlOW


"... sus días trabajando en la oscuridad están contados. Infiniheart rápidamente puede inducirte a un estado de ensueño, incluso si has tomado algunos coffees, sin embargo es más parecido a un lúcido sueño:. el sentido de estar cautivo en otro mundo, pero con la libertad de elegir tu experiencia. ... La belleza de este disco reside tanto en su amplitud y la aparente desolación ".
- Helen Spitzer, Exclaim.ca


"sí bién la frase "Genio de Dormitorio" ya se ha usado mucho, en el caso de VanGaalen, nada podía ser más adecuado"
- Eye MagazinE


"Uno de los compositores-cantautores más originales del año".

Reviews

"Pulp fairy tales that are easy to enter, so hard to leave behind"
- Robert Everett-Green, The Globe & Mail
"let me just say this: Infiniheart is a stunning achievement that perfectly showcases VanGaalen's many talents -- singer, lyricist, songwriter, producer and arranger -- and though its epic length might be off-putting at first, it won't take many listens before you're clamouring for even more."
- Scott Reid, Coke Machine GlOW

"...his days toiling in obscurity are numbered. Infiniheart can quickly induce a dreamlike state even if you've had a few coffees, but it's more akin to lucid dreaming: the sense of being captive in another world, but with the freedom to choose what you experience. ... Not unlike the prairie itself, the beauty of this recording resides in both its spaciousness and apparent desolation."
- Helen Spitzer, Exclaim.ca

"And while the phrase 'bedroom genius' gets tossed around a lot, in Van Gaalen's case, nothing could be more apt."
- Eye MagazinE
"Some of this year's most original and moving songwriting, and displays a breathtaking virtuosity and inventiveness on the part of its creator, who also produces, and plays virtually everything."
- David Peschek, The Guardian 2005
