Nearly a decade after his split from Placebo, Steve Hewitt puts the past behind him and sets his eyes ahead on his second album as Love Amongst Ruin. With the lineup now including Donald Ross Skinner on guitar, who had worked extensively with Julian Cope, and long-running Cure affiliate Perry Bamonte on bass in the live band, Lose Your Way branches out from the band's earlier themes and manages to have bursts of bright clarity alongside moments of dark introspection. It's definitely a loud record, from the cathartic eruption of "Modern War Song" and distorted rush of "Swan Killer" to the huge build of "So Close"; there's zero half-hearted instrumental ambling or wishy-washiness to be found.
