absolutely exceptional! haunting vocal performance.

“Someone hit the big score, they figured it out, we’re going to do it anyway, even if it doesn’t pay” - this hits hard.

Whatever Happened, It's Alright Now

Come out and play,
you know I'm your fool.
Just a silly game, just another joke,
dancing in the rain, fire, and the smoke.

You're down in a daydream,
I'm after the truth.
Circling the drain down the rabbit hole,
never landing where I could help you go.

It's true, I thought a long walk would do.
You're stuck in the mirror having hard talks
and looking at your opposite.

And so it's like this:
I'm going nowhere.
One day we'll run wild with the wind in your hair.
Well I'll stay right here when you vanish in there.
I'm holding you now while I'm locked out.

Remember last spring,
(strange oasis of yours)
laying out in the bluebells?
(strange oasis of yours)
Vessels from the past floating down the stream,
(sullen the oasis of your house)
they don't carry you like they carry me.
(suddenly I'm weightless)
And it's alright to say so,

(sullen the oasis of your house)
but if it's alright I'll stay close.

And so it's like this:
I'm going nowhere.
One day we'll run wild with the wind in your hair.
Well I'll stay right here when you vanish in there.
I'm holding you now while I'm locked out.

It's true, I thought a long walk would do.
You're stuck in the mirror having hard talks
and looking at your opposite.

And so it's like this:
I'm going nowhere.
One day we'll run wild with the wind in your hair.
Well I'll stay right here when you vanish in there.
I'm holding you now while I'm locked out

Mount Famine are an 80s influenced indie rock n' roll band from Derby with big synth hooks, soaring vocals and dirty guitars. 'Lost' is their third single and follow up to 'Pulse' which was included in the actor Robert Carlyle's ‘Shit Year, Great Music' Spotify playlist in December 2020 as one of his favourite singles of the year.

Recording started in early 2020, and ‘Lost’ was finished in between lockdowns and is another step towards an album the band are writing and recording.
