We Were Promised Jetpacks

Scotland's Glaswegian Quartet Showcases New Fresh Tunes:

Not since Beta Band's Heroes to Zeroes have I been so excited for a new album to drop out of Scotland - We Were Promised Jetpacks have shown great potential for what's to come... Just check out their MySpace page for some sample tracks. The unsigned four-piece rockers (who are just barely old enough to drink in the US) have created quite the buzz about themselves in the UK, finding air-time on BBC1, and very recently reaching their way across the sea - KEXP here in Seattle has been playing "Quiet Little Voices" quite a lot these days. For a listen, check out these two songs from their self-released, self-titled 2007 EP - reminds me at times of a string-free Ra Ra Riot.

"Quite Little Voices"
"Moving Clocks Run Slow"
