[quote]Release Notes:
Twenty One, the 2008 album which yielded Mystery Jets?astonishing
single Two Doors Down, was a step up in ambition and quality from the
band's bright 2006 debut, Making Dens. Neither album quite delivered on
the band's supreme early promise but, at last, Serotonin is the real
deal.
Although singer Blaine Harrison and his four cohorts (including his now
non-touring dad Henry) make what could loosely be termed British guitar
indie, their inventiveness and raft of ideas mean they operate on a
plateau far above most of the competition. Their only obvious UK peers,
who express similar levels of imagination, are British Sea Power and
Super Furry Animals.
Alice Springs, the excellent opener, finds Blaine's rich, quivering
voice married to a tremendous wall of sound of ascending synth,
wordless vocal chants and guitar pummelling. At its biggest peaks, you
can almost imagine Arcade Fire speeding down the Thames in a speedboat,
to moan at the band for nicking their sound.
Too Late to Talk begins with serious prog silliness, the kind most
commonly associated with strange men sporting stranger beards. But it
soon turns into a hugely affecting piano ballad, one bizarrely
reminiscent of Guns N?Roses?November Rain, albeit minus Axl and a
brilliantly overblown ending.
By far the boldest track is Show Me the Light. Some pundits would say
mixing an early-90s house bassline with iridescent Friendly Fires
synth, chiming U2 riffs and hectic flamenco guitars is foolish. They
are wrong. The shimmering, almost ecstatic single Dreaming of Another
World is a moreish moment of Byrds-style whimsy and perhaps epitomises
the mood of Serotonin best. It's utterly alive and is filled with the
immensely attractive certainty that, actually, life is great if you
live it with the right attitude.
There are many more moments of magic on this triumphant third album.
Among them, The Girl is Gone proves Mystery Jets can do melancholy in
as confident a manner as they do happiness. Mellifluous, lovelorn and
tender, it'll squeeze the heart of anyone who's ever been in love, and
especially those who've later felt theirs break.
Under the watch of venerable, veteran producer Chris Thomas (whose
credits include The Beatles, Sex Pistols and countless others) these
west Londoners have made a varied, touching, excitable and witty album.
Really, how can one not love a record containing Flash a Hungry Smile
with its line of, "have you heard the birds and bees / have all got
STDs?"[/quote]
