Zootime (CD)
Order and receive a Dim Mak CD sampler and a Mystery Jets poster. (while supplies last)
The Mystery Jets embody British pop at its most invigoratingly weird. Already, previous singles have seemed like dispatches from some starry-eyed parallel universe where Syd Barrett never dropped out but played on with Einsturzende Neubauten, where the irresistible pop of Dexy's can happily co-exist with the Krautrock explorations of Can, and where the most forbidding musical forms of the past, like prog rock, are gleefully reinvented in the smash-and-grab spirit of the present. With ZooTime, be prepared to have your life forever enriched by a band relentless at breaking boundaries and enlightening one's soul with much of their own.![]()

| Mystery jets are the epitome of music & this album proves it. I favor "making dens" only because it has a more personal feel to it. However, any collection of mystery jets songs would be more than incredible. | |
