Lost in the Former West was the final album released by Irish rock band The Fatima Mansions in 1994.

Writing for Hot Press, Liam Fay said that it is "both Fatima Mansions’ most accessible and most ambitious release yet.

It revisits virtually all the bases that the band has touched during its previous four albums but maintains a cohesion and easy-appeal throughout.

"[1] As with Viva Dead Ponies, the song listing as released in the US differed from the UK version, incorporating "Something Bad" and "Go Home Bible Mike" from Valhalla Avenue, while excluding "Sunken Cities".

The track "Nite Flights" is a cover of The Walker Brothers song.
