Anyone heard the full CD?

Their new single is pretty hot. Wonder if the rest of the disc is worth cehcking out...

i heard one song and did not like it .     it's like retro rock is following the same pattern  nü-metal did back in its early years

Ugh, don't get me started on Jet. I've been digging the "indie rock" kinda thing that'd been getting popular (Strokes, White Stripes etc.) but fearing this. this is the complete commercialization of this music, it's become too popular, and while this was apparent for a while, this is the end. Jet feels so contrived and marketted, i may be wrong, i don't know enough about the band, but that's the vibe i get, their single is always on certain radio stations, and once they were on SNL i really was upset. I liked the use of the single in the iPOD ads, but that just cheapens the band even more. Their single is just a complete rip off of Iggy Pop, and it's so bloody addictive, arg. My mind may change with time, but I am skeptical.

Mister mister got it spot on, the song is a complete ripoff of Lust For Life, the riff and drums.  Iggy's a great artist to rip off but damn, don't be so blatant.

The first time I ever heard it, I was like Holy Shit, they're playing Lust For Life on a commercial radio station!

I was pretty much tired of this indie rock movement after the fifth time I heard the first Strokes CD. In a row. That is not a good CD to have on repeat while you're too preoccupied to press stop. But it is and always will be vastly preferable to nu metal, as far as I'm concerned.

Also, the cover to Jet's album is cool, so if you buy albums based on their cool covers, this would be one to pick up.

Sigur Rós

I have their album and it's definately quality but not quite food. It's has some average rock 'n' roll songs but also some great ones. The best tracks are: Get What You Need, Get me Outta Here, Take it or Leave It and Are you Gonna be my Girl.

I agree.

Well there you have it, then. A purchase I will pass on.
