    Perhaps the most tangible set of songs he has produced yet.

    Where Living With Yourself found McGuire sticking to moody, simple melodies, Get Lost inches up the volume a little.

    With Get Lost, McGuire has nudged toward both goals, and while in many ways, for long time fans, this is exactly what you'd expect a 2011 Mark McGuire album to sound like.

    Get Lost marks him out as descendant of Manuel Gottsching and Vini Reilly, stringing pretty guitar motifs and quiet, whispered vocals into ringing loops. [Nov 2011, p.93]

    McGuire still seems all too comfortable and way too sure of exactly where he stands on Get Lost.

    Beyond the structural suture of earthen folk is a dazzling spectacle of unguitar-like effects and affects.

    It was obviously made with care, and, as an result, is pretty easy on the ears. Much of it is also over-saturated, poured on too thick, and it can be cloying in its polite pleasantness.
