Jets Overhead — No Nations

in
By Chris Burland (CHARTattack) June 18, 2009 11:56 am
After listening to Jets Overhead's 2006 Bridges album a couple of years ago, I thought this band needed a bigger budget to fill out their promising shoegazer sound.

Rain Can't Wash Edgefest Away

in
By Shannon Whibbs (CHARTattack) July 4, 2006 4:30 pm
This year marks the 20th anniversary of Edgefest. The festival has gone through many permutations over the years, but in the end, it still serves as a great way of bringing music to the masses. I don't visit the Amphitheatre often, so every time I come back it takes a little while to get used to the lay of the land. After wandering by the...

Jets Overhead — Bridges

in
By Shannon Whibbs (CHARTattack) June 20, 2006 3:47 pm
Bridges ebbs and flows almost effortlessly over 13 tracks of swirling guitars and the gently intoned harmony vocals of Adam Kittredge and Antonia Freybe-Smith, sounding like a laid-back, west coast Canadian answer to The Dandy Warhols. With most albums, there's usually a snag somewhere in the middle — a song that jolts the listener out of a good...

Whether or not the word "nice" is positive or faint praise really depends on how you like your rock 'n' roll. Grade: 72 Comment: A mix of people from both ends of the nice preference spectrum were in...

Jets Overhead Luke Renshaw's Top Five Albums Of 2009

in
By Luke Renshaw (CHARTattack) January 1, 2010 4:30 pm
1. THE BEATLES Rubber Soul [remastered] I'm an absolute Beatles freak, and my favourite album is usually a reflection of how I'm feeling in that particular time period. So this year (and out of all the remastered Beatles albums), I'm feeling a tiny bit psychedelic, but I'm still feeling very true to my pop sensibility. It's a bit of a trip to...

Jets Overhead's video for No Nations' "Heading For Nowhere" finds the band wandering around Victoria, B.C. and spending time inside an old apartment. There are also plenty of railroad tracks (which go appropriately go nowhere) and black shirts in the clip.
