How It Feels to Be Lost is the sixth studio album by American rock band Sleeping with Sirens, released through Sumerian Records on September 6, 2019. It serves as a follow-up to the group's 2017 album Gossip, and is their first release on Sumerian since departing with Warner Bros. Records and marks a return to the band's post-hardcore roots. It is also their final album to feature longtime drummer Gabe Barham, who departed from the band a week before the album's release.
The album was supported by three singles; "Leave It All Behind", "Break Me Down" and "Agree to Disagree". To promote the album, the band toured on the entirety of the inaugural Rockstar Energy Disrupt Festival from June to July 2019 and embarked on a co-headlining 2019 North American tour with British rock band Bring Me the Horizon.
A deluxe edition of the album was released on August 21, 2020, featuring the single "Talking to Myself", which was released on July 24, 2020.
Loudwire named it one of the 50 best rock albums of 2019.
Background
Kellin Quinn expressed his feelings on touring and performing the tracks from Gossip in a 2019 interview with Loudwire. "The year or two after touring that record, I had a really hard time going onstage and believing in the things I was saying. I didn't feel like a legend. I didn't feel like all those positive things that I was trying to push across to people. After Gossip, we weren't sure what we were going to do. We were talking about maybe doing a hiatus." Quinn explained that his biggest regret was not taking a break from the band and touring. "I should’ve said something, but I just kind of rolled with it. I think that’s my biggest regret."
For unknown reasons, Matt Good is credited to produce an unknown twelfth track (on standard edition), which is non-existent on the album.
