Our Lost Infantry manage to pack so much in to such a small space, with dense songs that have the energy of an infantry charge, this is by no means a band who are lost – they know exactly what they’re doing and they’re doing it perfectly.
They're tighter, smarter, more fun and sound a hell of a lot more polished than a whole host of bands who have found someone to put out their record. - www.thefourohfive.com
lovely stuff - Bethan Elfyn
"They're swimming against the tide of current scenester orthodoxy true, but one day you reckon it'll turn." - arcticreviews.co.uk
I like this a lot and it gets better with every listen. - Steve Lamacq
Our Lost Infantry sound rather like what you might get if you set loose a group of musical savants in a music shop on a sunny day. It's unrestrained, uplifting stuff, raucous, air punching and well worth checking out. - ChannelFly Group
If there’s one band, I would urge you to listen to, it is Our Lost Infantry...very talented individuals who really deserve mainstream success. - Independent

Bio
we are from aldershot in south east england.
we all went to the same school.
we still live in the town where we grew up.
we spend every spare moment writing and playing and drawing and singing in the hope that, just maybe, this might be a way to better things.
we are an industrious band who like meeting new people and making new things.
we recently took our first band trip abroad, to copenhagen, to play some shows.
we would like it to be the first of many.
in the past we have played with johnny foreigner, sky larkin, frightened rabbit, the northwestern, the brute chorus, red light company, and hjaltalin.
in the future we would like to play with (in no particular order): los campesinos!, grammatics, fanfarlo, guillemots and british sea power.
make it so!
