Jets Overhead
\nBoredom and Joy
\n<\/em>(Warner)
\n4.5\/5<\/p>\n

Textures. Soaring, otherworldly melodies. Unforgettable pop tunes that become part of your life. Here, on album three, locals Jets Overhead prove that in a different era (that\u2019s the \u201980\u2019s), they would have been radio heroes, because they\u2019ve got all of the above, and more. Take one listen to the amazing \u201cBeach Dream,\u201d which sounds like one of those brief moments when R.E.M. weren\u2019t being mind-blowingly pedestrian and instead were working subtle, intellectual indie-rock magic. Jets Overhead do that, always, on this album. \u201cLove Got in the Way\u201d shows a funkier, dancier side of classic \u201980\u2019s radio pop, while \u201cButterflies\u201d is the perfect late-night summertime floating gaze-rock tune; \u201cYour Desire\u201d is the song that should put this band on the international rock map once and for all. \u201cThese Girls are Friends of Mine\u201d ends the album like one of those acoustic Black Crowes stoned-out stompers that you just can\u2019t help but get sucked into, clock ticking, time passing, realization that it\u2019s all good slowly sinking in through strummed chords, smart words, and comforting, familiar melodies. Yup, this one\u2019s a keeper.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
