It's a shame, because "Veiled In Grey" is a fantastic track.
The more typical "Mystery Jets" sound can be heard in the singles. The lovely Laura Marling features on their single "Young Love", a beautiful song about teenage romances, with lyrics like "young love never seems to last/far too young until they have a past&qu...more |

The Mystery Jets are a four-piece band from London. "Twenty One", their sophomore album, was released in early 2008 and reached number 24 on the UK albums chart.

A couple of decent, jaunty pop songs 
Too much filler Some great musicianship, good vocals` not to everyones taste killer beats repetitiveClock Me Jesus - Abitbollus
Some interesting ideas, and the whole thing is brimming with arguably misplaced enthusiasm. Weak drum machine, uninspired music and far too much emphasis on spoken word interludes.
Centuries of Heathen Might - Bannerwar
Nice epic and Mediterranean folk touches. Really bad production.
Daughtry - Daughtry
A decent soft rock sound Very little variation of sound
Cult - Apocalyptica
Talented and dynamic cello metal. You do tend to wish there was a real guitar in there somewhere.

Cherry 2000 / No Man's Land - Basil Poledouris - Soundtrack
Imaginative, well-constructed fun adventure music with a pseudo-futuristic patina A little disjointed perhaps and the make-weight score is unremarkable
Captain Morgan's Revenge - Alestorm
Hearty tales of wenches and conquest, performed with vigour and power. Still reliant on others' established styles at this stage.
