Featuring boisterous covers of the Chocolate Watchband's 'Sweet Young Thing', Homer Bank's 'Ain't That A Lotta Love', Clarence Carter's 'Back Door Santa' and Arthur Crudup's 'That's Alright Mama', the latter made famous by Elvis showing the group to be fine interpreters.

The album was critically acclaimed by the media including GQ calling it, "an irresistible mix of youngpunk vinegar and classic-rock baking soda... " Alternative Press gave it a rave review and found Jet's songs "catchy" and their appeal "diverse". Q magazine said that the album's raw immediacy "belies it's dated influences... ". The band split up in 2012 but reformed in 2016 and since then have played a number of live shows including in 2018 a 15th anniversary Australian national tour for the album Get Born.
