The Lost Patrol - Songs About Running Away
The Lost Patrol is the side project of Dennis Lyxzen, of Swedish punkers (International) Noise Conspiracy, who’s clearly hurting from his breakup with fellow Swede Lisa Miskovsky, a budding pop star. “Walking all by myself, while my baby is calling someone else,” Lyxzen sings on the jazzy, flute-filled “Out of Date.” Strangely, Miskovsky joins him on vocals on that track and the catchy “Alright.” Although some songs are appealingly acoustic, this is mostly a maudlin and very unpunk-like album.
