SIGNAL LOST brandish a raw guitar attack and passionate female vocals, playing catchy mid tempo hardcore punk rock with heavy emphasis on songs as opposed to over the top thrash bludgeoning. Akin to The MOB, ZOUNDS and other UK Peace punk, the anthems of the best of Polish Punk like DEZERTER or POST REGIMENT or even like later era ARTICLES OF FAITH or PROLETARIAT, SIGNAL LOST carry the rich legacy of Texas Punk a step further with a sound that riffs off of familiar elements but has it's own distinct identity. Guitarist Stan played guitar in Memphis's DEATHREAT who released numerous records on both Prank and the Partners In Crime records, as well as the criminally underrated and prolific New York City band BALANCE OF TERROR. The raw guitar sound of those bands remains, but the tempo slows to allow the melodic framework of the songs to shine. Recorded at Jackpot studios in Portland ( ELLIOTT SMITH, SLEATER KINNEY) by Larry Crane ( Tape op Magazine), Children of the Wasteland is a unique record, different than your typical Prank release and a unique addition to the Prank family of bands.
