“Tel Aviv’s Eatliz play a classic brand of atmospheric indie rock that has fueled great popularity in their Israeli homeland..In the new animated video for “Lose This Child” the brooding mood and simple imagery of animated turtles crawling across a deserted nighttime beach ideally suits the song’s essential melancholy”.
Popmatters
“Eatliz makes dreamy, atmospheric songs and imbuing them with complex and ornate arrangements and haunting vocals. And they have a Gorillaz-like alternate, altered universe of animated personae. Their new video, “Lose This Child,” continues their tradition of creating spellbinding, envelope-pushing, effects-bending videos. Taken from their album Teasing Nature, “Lose This Child” recalls some of the quieter moments of Radiohead’s OK Computer. The video is a stop-motion tour de force, crafting an entire imaginary world out of sand, with turtles and other sea creatures rising out of the ground. It really needs to be seen to be believed”.
MTV Buzzworthy
“Lose This Child” is some heady, spooky prog rock off their new album Teasing Nature. It has an ever-so-slight Eastern folk twang on the melodies and acoustics in the verses. The chorus is really just a chance for the lead songstress Lee Triffon to show off those heart-wrenching high notes”.
MTV Iggy
“Lose yourself in this mesmerizing stop-animation video. Tender, thought-provoking and exquisitely rendered; The video interprets the lyric voice of the individual into a reflection on our place and role in the environment. The fragility of existence translated into images, it sounds a warning and a message of hope in the power of art to transcend and transform reality.

“Lose This Child uses stop-motion sand sculptures to tell the tale of hatchling turtles battling to the sea. Shot over the course of a night, this beautiful video shows just what can be achieved with a modest budget, lots of sand and lots of patience.
