Ratings and Reviews
polished
Forgnight
JOH took the next step, recorded in NYC with the help of an accomplished producer. The change is noticeable, a polished feel as opposed to their previous offerings that had more of an "indie" feel. They'll get some mileage out of the opening track, the disc's first single, but the three that follow are the album's standouts; tracks nine and ten are the best of the rest. If "Tell me what you really want" doesn't show up in some maudlin TV drama's soundtrack sometime, I'd be surprised....
Nice

I'm new to JOH, but I prefer their non-autotuned songs.
About Jets Overhead
Victoria, British Columbia, five-piece Jets Overhead originally formed as a quartet under the name the Special Guests in 1995. As the Special Guests, the group released an EP and a full-length for Canadian indie Attic Records, but the label went into bankruptcy just after the release of the band’s debut full-length in 2000. By 2001, the Special Guests had split and in 2002, members Adam Kittredge, Jocelyn Greenwood, and Piers Henwood again teamed up, and with new recruits Antonia Freybe-Smith and Luke Renshaw formed as Jets Overhead. Jets Overhead’s self-titled debut arrived in 2003 and the band toured internationally with the likes of Tegan and Sara and the Dears. They followed with Bridges in 2006 and No Nations in 2009. ~ Gregory McIntosh
