Twenty One

by Mystery Jets

The 1964th greatest album of all time

Twenty One, Mystery Jets' 2008 second album, moves the band toward brighter, more pop-oriented indie rock, mixing jangly guitars with layered keyboards and electronic textures. The record emphasizes hook-driven melodies, concise songcraft, and a more polished production compared with their earlier work, while lyrical themes often touch on youth and relationships. It marks a shift toward accessible pop-rock territory while retaining the band's indie sensibilities.
