Pictured above: Mystery Jets aren’t exactly NOT sketchy.
Mystery Jets is a band from ole Brittania that draws on The 80’s, Black Rebel Motorcycle Club, and cool, big hair. Their new album, 21 is equal parts haunting reverb and rockin’ party music. It’s really very hard to explain.
They’re a “prog” rock band, whatever that means nowadays. I’m guessing it’s because they experiment with pedals, vocal effects, etc. If there’s one thing that this band isn’t, it’s high fallutin. All of Mystery Jets’ songs come from a very genuine place, at times it’s so genuine it feels almost retro. Like people from the 21st century couldn’t really feel these feelings anymore.
Enjoy this track, “Behind The Bunhouse”. It’s something out of an Edward Gorey poem. From the bizarre background sounds to the fact that he’s singing about choking someone with love, it’s really quite the track. Enjoy it when the band comes in.
OR, Enjoy this management approved, also great track instead.
