Biography

Lost Sounds was a dark wave band from Memphis, Tennessee that was formed in 1999. The band was made up of Rich Crook on drums, Patrick Jordan on bass, Jay Reatard on synth, guitar, and vocals, and Alicja Trout on synth, guitar, and vocals. The band, originally working within the garage rock genre, had a collection of analog keyboards Trout had used in her previous band, The Clears. The bizarre combination of new wave synths and mangled guitars showed a Punk rock influence as well. The band frequently dealt with dark, apocalyptic themes ranging from the Book of Revelation ("Breathing Machine") to the Columbine High School massacre ("Blackcoats/Whitefear"). The band's last show was in May 2005 in Stuttgart, Germany, and they broke up right after. Rich Crook went on to write and record music in the band Lover! Former band members have since formed Sweet Knives as a self-described reboot of Lost Sounds, after Reatard died in 2010.
