The Onion (A.V. Club)
Resurgam is brimming with glacial, lucent, keys-driven beauty.
90
Alternative Press
A record bubbling with fresh sounds and creativity, one that proves Alias has not only not lost his touch--he' s improved upon it. [Oct 2008, p.162]

All Music Guide
Alias has created his most welcoming and positive dream world on Resurgam, an album where the creaks comfort and the low cloud cover comes off as heavenly.
60
PopMatters
Resurgam is pleasant and occasionally quite captivating ear candy from an artist who may nevertheless have to work harder in the future in order to remain distinct.
50
Sputnikmusic
Coupled with the fact that his synergy of indie, singer-songwriter, pop, and trip hop is never quite realized, renders Resurgam a few steps below the 2008 hip hop releases that have already proven themselves to be superb.

Under The Radar
The listless downbeat trend of recent solo efforts unfortunately continues. [Fall 2008, p.88]
