Sweetness is not often a quality I look for in my music. If I had my druthers, everything on the radio would be rough and raw and hard and messy- Mothra v Godzilla for your ears. But sometimes, of a lonely winter's night, I am willing to be wooed by a sultry voice carrying a dulcet tune. Radlands , the fourth album by British indie rockers Mystery Jets, is the musical equivalent of a hot cup of cocoa and a Christmas sweater; it's that first boyfriend who gave you a stuffed cat named “William Shakespurr,” plays acoustic guitar and [...]

Love, love, love this album.
Mystery Jets han vuelto con su nuevo disco, Radlands . Eso es. Se trata de un disco de estudio, y es completamente nuevo (salió a la venta a finales de abril). Aclaro esto porque últimamente cada vez que oigo hablar de ellos también lo hago de uno de los bombazos del mencionado LP, “Greatest Hits”, que es precisamente eso, uno de los temas que lo componen, y en ningún caso un grandes éxitos aunque esa sea la traducción literal del nombre. En el vídeo, que podéis ver a continuación, nos encontramos con [...]
Mystery Jets added a whole bunch of Americana to their sound on recent release, Radlands , and the video for “Greatest Hits” further illustrates the band’s new found infatuation with the States. There’s not many better ways to show your true patriotism than taking a girl out to the fair and showing her the time of her life. I think this band has been getting pointers from fellow Brits, Arctic Monkeys, on how to woo Texas chicks. Sorry for your heartbreak, Blaine. Mystery Jets - “Greatest Hits”
U.K. pop ensemble Mystery Jets have been a Next Big Thing for about four albums now, their 2006 debut "Making Dens" (released as "Zootime" by Dim Mak in the U.S.) earning a lot of attention, and their ensuing two albums of hooky ditties occasionally exhilarating, consistently witty but mostly merely amiable. For their fourth album "Radlands" (out this month on Rough Trade), they took up residence near Austin, Texas, but only some of the album sounds like it. If you're a fan of their 2008 U.K. single "Two Doors Down," the new album's "The Ballad of Emmerson Lonestar" [...]

The Mystery Jets' Radlands, released back in April, was a very pleasing listen. Our very own Catherine Hawkes, when summing it up, pondered that "the recording of Radlands in Texas has injected the band with a heavy influence of Americana to their beloved Anglo-pop sound, and you know what, they pull it of with applaudable ease." 'Greatist Hits', its new single, is, according to Hawkes "an upbeat, nostalgic beauty that delivers a very Beatles-esque sound." And now they've released a video for it. In a fairground. And it's ace. [...]
“Greatest Hits” , tema extraído del álbum Radlands , es el nombre del sencillo más reciente de los Mystery Jets y para el cual están estrenando video. Bajo la dirección de Jem Goulding, en el video vemos a los integrantes de la banda pasándola de lo mejor en un pequeño parque de diversiones. Carrusel, rueda de la fortuna, luces de colores, juegos de destreza, guitarra acústicas y vinilos… todo incluido en el nuevo video de los Mystery Jets. Chéquenlo a continuación.
Here is the official video for Mystery Jets newest single 'Greatest Hits', which is taken from their fourth album Radlands . The band are currently on tour with Keane here in North America, and come to Salt Lake City, UT on June 26th at Gallivan Plaza.
Mystery Jets have unveiled their new video for latest single 'Greatest Hits'. Taken from the excellent Radlands, it is a bouncy acoustic Britpop jam which sees an argument take place about who gets which records after a breakup. 'Greatest Hits' is one of the highlights from their new album which sounds like they have found their zip again. A perfect pop [...]
Mystery Jets were one of the hottest tickets in town at the Great Escape this year, with the Corn Exchange even shutting me out on the Thursday as they went delegate queue-less. But all is not lost. The band - minus bassist Kai Fish, who has since left the group - performed two songs from their new album 'Radlands', 'Greatest Hits' and 'Hale Bop', for Bands in Transit. Evidently, this was filmed on the Friday as there's a [...]

Got another new Mystery Jets jam to share with you all. “Greatest Hits” is a good-time acoustic led number, that is in great contrast to previously dramatic single, “Someone Purer”. I get scared anytime a greatest hits is attached to any artist, but luckily it appears as just interesting subject matter in the lyrics. Besides a Belle & Sebastian reference in the song, the song definitely appears to be influenced heavily by the duo. Radlands , is so close away, with the June 5th release date ever so soon.

Radlands , el nuevo álbum de los Mystery Jets ya está a la venta y para promocionar este lanzamiento, la banda británica nos presenta “Greatest Hits”, el primer sencillo de esta producción. La nueva canción es acústica y algunos estarán de acuerdo que está cargada con reminiscencias de los Beatles. Acá abajo pueden escuchar “Greatest Hits” y comentar si les gustó.

The Mystery Jets will have their 4th album Radlands hitting North America on June 5th. They are also set to tour with Keane in June and will be playing SLC, UT on June 26th, at The Gallivan Center. I do feel Mystery Jets have flown under the radar for sometime now especially here in the US. With a track such as 'Greatest Hits', the band give you a throwback sound that brings you back to earlier days. It is a fantastic song and one that I have had on repeat all day long, and one that [...]
