Jet...the new Ac/dc?


Saw these disheveled, denim-clad hipsters on Conan O...and was throughly unimpressed...sounded like a bunch of half-baked, b-grade 70s pub rock riffage...which come to think of it..is kinda cool! Whatz up!

Bought the Cd...pretty cool in the classic stones-y, cock rock way...with some surprising tender blues ballads thrown in for good mix...fans of Stones,Ac/dc,Kinks, and kickass bar rock will not be let down...lotta fun..play very loud...
New AC/DC? Naw. BUT, these guys can play! I saw them on SNL and had to buy their album. I especially appreciate that they are simply plugging Les Pauls into Marhalls and turning them up to the obligatory 11. No pedals, no effects, and the recording doesn't sound terribly overproduced like a lot of Nu Metal (although I do like Nickleback and Puddle of Mudd).

What is amazing is that this band seems to be able to go from AC/DC-like rock stompin' to Beetles-esque balladry in a snap. The lead singer has a very good voice. I eagerly await a follow-up effort.
Yes I saw them on SNL , and was impressed. Nice to hear some real rock and roll . Long Live Rock !
They are riding what is, I hope, the tail end of a trite, gimmicky fad. I consider them to be replicas of replicas, not rock. Not to rain on the fun, that's just how I think of them.
