NBC4.COM
Ethereal, mysterious, achingly beautiful... New York-area indie-rockers The Lost Patrol have been operating under the radar for years, releasing a string of terrific albums. Perfect for perhaps a David Lynch film, or maybe, better yet, for sitting outside on a warm night gazing at stars. "Sirens" is one of the most unforgettable tracks of 2007.

SCHOLARS & ROGUES
Damn. Just, wow. Twangy, epic widescreen music for empty western landscapes at sunset. Somehow TLP conjures the Old West and layers it with a twinge of goth electronica in a way that's relentlessly cinematic. Their sound is defined, in some ways, by the connotive power of echo and reverb, yet it's never overpowered by studio tricks. Instead, the focus never leaves the staggering accomplishment of the songs themselves, which manage to be as transcendent in impact as they are simple in structure and conception.

THE STAR-CHICAGOHEIGHTS-STAR.COM
This is an album that listens like a hip movie soundtrack. Dreamy, evocative, and catchy in a sneak-up-on-you kind of way. Coolness factor: 10! Highly recommended.

ELEGY IBÉRICA
A few pinches of pop, a few other of lounge, some essences of ethereal and darkwave and influences by Cocteau Twins, The Sundays, Echo & The Bunnymen (among others) form the sonority of this brilliant band.

THE CHURCH OF GIRL
The Lost Patrol hold a magical key to our heart with their desert-surf tinged guitar,
twelve-string acoustic guitar, swirling synths, strings, electronic and live drums...

LUNAKAFÉ.COM
The Lost Patrol craft impeccable soundscapes and their album is a wonderful listen.

MP3HUGGER.COM
No matter what angle I position my ears I keep hearing the Shadows on 'Shimmy', there is something awfully historical (or hysterical depending on the amount of LSD you've taken). The vocals remind of a Cocteau Twin in distress (perhaps it's Miki from Lush lost at sea though) and tend to throw the whole piece into the realms of a Tarantino scene where blood is inevitably going to be spilt.

MAGNAPHONE MAGAZINE
It's all here: Republic serials from the 40's, Angelo Badalamenti, Night-timey surf &; twang, Siouxsie/Sisters Gothic strut and vintage 80's college rock jangle. There's even some Mod keys and of course...those vocals. On this, their seventh release they hone all of these conceits into a glittering stew, that you would be daft to miss.

THE NASHVILLE SCENE
This band from the Garden State blends the twang of an Ennio Morricone soundtrack with the dark pop sensibilities of The Motels.

RICHMOND TIMES DISPATCH
It was Jimi Hendrix who strangely intoned more than 35 years ago that "you will never hear surf music again," He was half-right. The Lost Patrol as least proves that you'll never hear surf music in the same way again.

THE WASHINGTON POST
retro-surf-alternative-cocktail rock...

MOONLIGHT WEB MAGAZINE
In a perfect world, The Lost Patrol would top the most important world charts; in a perfect world there would be a copy of Lonesome Sky in every house.

POST-PUNK.COM
New York's "The Lost Patrol" is quite an innovative group, on their fourth release
Lonesome Sky they really nail their own sound. Falling somewhere between Duane Eddy, Nancy Sinatra, Dick Dale, and The Cranes. This is western dream-pop, surfy lounge rock with more than a hint of post-punk influence.

ASBURY PARK PRESS
Dreamy, dusty and as cool as the Milky Way...space-age lounge, ambient fuzz and Euro pop.

THE AQUARIAN ARTS WEEKLY
Expanding their cinema-scopic surf sound by grafting bits of country, Vegas lounge, 60's girl group and Luna-like guitar excursions into an already exciting mix...

EVILSPONGE.ORG
Such emotive range then and such diversity. Few bands can make you weep one moment and smile the next...The Lost Patrol are Badalamenti meets Morricone. Blue hotels and ghost highways. To see them play live must be very special indeed.

EXIT WEEKLY MAGAZINE
Mesh Mazzy Star's dark daze-inducing sensibilities, Neko Case's resonating
contemporary twang inflections and the dreamlike and surreal soundscapes that serve as a backdrop in every psyche-distorting David Lynch film and you get a brief glimmer of The Lost Patrol. What a pleasantly exasperating addled mind it is. While the recipe is a mishmash of various musical influences, the fine-tuned execution and individual flair is The Lost Patrol's own.

THE BIG TAKEOVER
Why this band is not better known...The narcotic pacing of The Lost Patrol's slightly
spaghetti western-themed guitars (reverbed-drenched!) is mesmerizing to say the very least...Its tough to pinpoint references, for Lost Patrol do have trace sounds of so, so many, yet this is completely their own thing...this feels like one suite of hazy siren-voiced guitar-hypnotica.

LEONARD'S LAIR
...this New York quartet can claim to have nailed the atmospheric gothic twang down first too...Lonesome Sky arrives fully formed as a polished record that needs no embellishment to push it towards a mainstream audience.

TAPE OP RECORDING MAGAZINE
Combine elements of Mazzy Star/Opal, Cocteau Twins, surf music, and Nancy Sinatra, and you're bound to make an album I'll listen to a lot.

WHOOPSY! MAGAZINE
Infectious melodies swoop and flutter, guitar twangs drop and glitter or blast and echo off into nowhere like Clint Eastwood gunfire. The "spaghetti western" sound is well-worn but in this case extremely well executed. The moodiest twang since Chris Issak's Wicked Game...Smashing soundtrack for an arty movie or all-night make-out. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!
