Eel Pie Island, London, England (2005 – present)

Hailing from Eel Pie Island, London, England Mystery Jets are a prog/psychedelia-influenced British indie band who refer to as many genres as they like without being bound by any of them. Formed in 2005, the band consists of Blaine Harrison (lead vocals, keyboards), his father Henry Harrison (guitar, backing vocals), William Rees (lead guitar), Kai Fish (bass) and Kapil Trivedi (drums)

After some EPs and an NME featured track (Alas Agnes), the band toured and released their album ‘Making Dens’ in 2006 to positive reviews. The band released their sophomore album, ‘Twenty One’ on March 24th, 2008. Henry Harrison doesn’t play live with them anymore, but is still involved in writing and recording.

In their "Half in love with elizabeth MASH UP" in the radio player, what is the 2nd and 3rd sample song that they play? I reconize the 3rd as Flakes, but what specific version is that? The first is half in love with elizabeth...but I can't figure out the other two. Thanks!

I have to disagree with Headlessn. "young Love" is a great tune though. Downloading the rest of the album now. Maybe after a few more listens I'll be on board with the kooks supporting the jets.
