    Not what I would personally listen to but some songs did have an infectious catchiness to them. Found the overall pacing and track order a bit chaotic

    disappointing and unoriginal. bat for lashes is capable of much more than this.

    Amazing as usual, this album involves you on a cinematic experience of an 80s film, thanks to Natasha Khan to keep her essence on a world full of trashy music as Reggaeton and Trap.

    SIMPLY AMAZING!.
    A jewel of 80's influenced Synthpop, a refreshing oasis in the middle of a desert consumed by Trap & Hip-Hop.
    By far my favorite album this year.

    The overdone synth pop and uninspiring songwriting becomes a bit tiring, so Lost Girls as a whole is a disappointment for a band with so much talent and past successes. [Sep-Nov 2019, p.82]

    Even if Lost Girls often sounds like scrapped ideas taken from a larger project, Khan doesn't go too deep into nostalgia—still working firmly within a pop framework.

    For the most part, it sounds like something countless other artists could've made, which is the antithesis of everything that made its predecessors so special.
