Album Review: Lost On Campus - In Pursuit Of Courage & Heart
![](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjF53q9MD_UFKbVL4XyzrGkxd9uBCHhH6kCOS7VSgNbtZnrf9dH85LL9aZTdGgGEpA06W-dluW4Cc_Zv3-P49Q5PGgR7wt12xMT7CPECTqdsm3sLKJySDqfqvxPVFhpRpmrImmj7nsaRg/s200/LOC+Cover-2.jpg)
Tracks like 'Open Sesame', 'Coastlines' and 'I'm A Dreamer Baby!' are bouncy with stripped instrumentation, with the latter being one of those songs you can't help start singing along too. Similarly 'Coastlines' is built around the "ba-da-da" chorus section. Both are enjoyable to listen to.
'Whisky' is reminiscent of Get Cape Wear Cape Fly, Lynch's confident voice backed by subtle keys, light percussion and steady guitar strumming, that is complimented by nice sliding guitar notes.
In contrast, closing track 'The Party Never Dies' is somewhat cold with its eerie vocal delivery, twinkling guitar and slow build-up. Add to that an electronic/keyboard section and you are left with a track that has depth and stands out from the rest.
Overall 'In Pursuit Of Courage & Heart' is a nice, sweet little EP that is just enjoyable to listen to and ideal for the coming summer months. Rob (or Lost On Campus) has surely taken one step further towards greater things.
