We Were Promised Jetpacks – The Last Place You’ll Look

  • April 20, 2010

Scottish four-piece We Were Promised Jetpacks continue their run with an EP comprising old and new songs that are just as dark and moody as ever. The Last Place You’ll Look has two rewritten songs from their debut These Four Walls, plus three new tracks. The Last Place You’ll Look is a moody, angst-ridden set of songs that often remind me of college alternative music of the late 90s, but with a distinct Scottish broodiness. Their most successful tracks are ones like “Short Bursts” and “With the Benefit of Hindsight” – songs based on steadily paced drums and Adam Thompson’s defiant, angry vocals. – Written by DBosket
