Jet Album: “Are You Gonna Be My Girl [UK CD #1]”

Yes yes, Jet, we all know that Lust For Life is a great song, but those of us with enough sense to actually go out and buy an Iggy Pop/Stooges album can do without this rip-off. Honestly, would it be THAT hard to just change the bass-line a bit or something so it wouldn't be such a blatant imitation? What's next, Search & Destroy?

Find this band to be somewhat under-rated in my opinion. If you like good rock and roll, pretty sure you'll wanna pick this EP up and add to your collection.

This is the catchiest song I've heard. It's in my top 10 of best songs ever. The vocals are great and very catchy. The guitar does sound a bit like Iggy Pop for a bit which I noticed when I first heard this. You can't help but sing along to it. Get this single now!!!!!!!! You won't regret it!

This sounds like something written by/for a fake band in a movie or a TV show. It doesn't rock -- it pretends to rock. Iggy Pop wannabes striving to create a commercial sound. I hear that starting a business in hopes of getting bought by Microsoft is now an accepted business practice. I liken music like this to the same mentality: "Let's write cheesy corporate rock and maybe we'll get placed in an iTunes commercial."

I give this two stars because "Are You Gonna Be My Girl?" is a great song. I first heard it on an internet radio station, and thought "Oh fun, an Iggy cover!" No, just an shameless rip-off - although nicely done. Buy the real thing.
