"Because the instant rush of Gone Not Lost's perfect openers, "Sister Mary Katherine" and "Bethany," jumps up your brain stem and jangles your synapses so swiftly, it's excusable to forget just how well-crafted The Midwest Beat's guitar-pop confections actually are. The sweet sounds of "Alone Now," "Spent Love," and "All Night Long" never age, partly because of timeless adherence to beloved British Invasion styles, but mostly because the band built the album to breeze right on by so effortlessly that listeners barely realize what happened before they know all the songs by heart." - The Onion
