Customer Reviews Can't help - again 5 points 4 NMA! In comparison to other bands that are struggling to fill their regular publications with songs of equal quality, NMA`s huge songwriting potential is again proved in impressive manner. Yet another fine and elaborate opus from NMA including B-sides and previously unreleased tracks. It took some time to get into some songs, so I would recommend uptempo tracks like "Brother" for the first encounter. Lost songs contains some of my favorite songs by NMA: "Trees in winter" - a heartripping ballad and "Knife" a fast poetic hymn to love and life. There's also a brilliant remix of "Over the wire" - highly recommendable. Even "Sunset" - which I first relegated as a rather stranger journey into banjo-style country music - is now running in endless loops in my CD player. Overall a fascinating experience to discover this valley of lost songs. Not bad, not super duper fantastic A couple of good trax, its no B-sides and Other Abandoned Tracks. more punky than what i'm used to. Lost Songs...but great songs! Such is the case here. Strange that NMA outakes, b-sides, and abandoned tracks are often of such high quality that many times they become favored over album offerings. . . there are some tunes on this release that are as good as anything NMA have ever laid down. . . which is no small feat for a band with NMA's extreme level of dedication and talent. As a double cd import, the price is good given the quality of the material present. Nifty liner notes, too. A very safe purchase for fans of the most important band in the world (I believe. ). .
