Lost in the Shadows is the third release from Kalamazoo band, Willamena. Frequently comparing itself to both Matchbox 20 and Detroit, the band tells a hard luck/comeback story on its website. With all the band's hopes pinned on this release, one hates to pan it (though it was considered). The polished pop of Lost in the Shadows would be right at home on any Top 40 radio station.
