IT'S rather reassuring that one of this year's white hot breakthrough acts feature the singer's dad on guitar.

Unfortunately The Mystery Jets's back story is more interesting than the limp Britpop trifling that is You Can't Fool Me Dennis.

The genuinely empowering thrust of the chorus "You can do anything you want to as long as it makes sense" is obscured by daft lines like "When the cat befriended the mouse there wasn't a dry eye in the house."

Released September 12, 2005.
