4. Rare Tracks (2004)
“Rare Tracks, as has already been brought out, is an excellent middle piece between Get Born and Shine On. Even though the songs are demo versions, they still sound excellent. The songs that are new on this album really show JET can rock without losing the meaning to their music.”
3. Shaka Rock (2009)
“Nick Cester Lead vocalist and guitarist, his brother Chris on drums some lead vocals & backing vocals, write great tunes with great melodies & lyrics! Everything the Cester brothers & co. did on each release was top form, all winner!! While the music critics were hailing “The Strokes”, they “missed the boat”: should’ve been paying a lot more attention to Jet, Mando Diao, The Vines and Billy Boy on Poison.”

2. Shine On (2006)
“The stand out track for me on this album is the album title “Shine On”. This is a great song with a mix of piano, great lyrics with good vocal range, and they even throw some soulful female backround vocals. The songs on Shine On are well crafted and Produced very well as they should be because they have been working on this album for 3 years. This album isn’t as edgy or as hard rocking as Get Born is, but it is a much more crafted and there is more range and professionalism in this album.”
1. Get Born (2003)
“While certainly nothing groundbreaking in originality, “Get Born” is a refreshing, fun, fine collection of rock/pop tunes. First, the live, raw, recording style is a nice change from the overproduced, multi-track layered digital recordings of the modern technology era. You can actually hear the hum of those tube amplifiers – and that’s a good thing. Rock albums should not always be about perfection.”
