Critical reception[edit]

As Long as You Come to My Garden was well received by the music press,[1] with some enthusiastic reviews.[2] The New Noise defined it as "one of the most exciting debuts not only of the Die Schachtel label, but of the entire panorama of new Italian creative music".[3]

Richard Allen on A Closer Listen says "The video teaser for Damāvand's As Long as You Come to My Garden provides an electronic impression, while the album itself is a blend of dark ambient, drone and experimental flavors."[4]

Mirco Salvadori on Rockerilla defined it as "work of fascinating complexity".[5]
