I first saw We Were Promised Jetpacks on an awesome Fat Cat Records bill at The El Mocambo with Brakes and The Twilight Sad back in 2009. I got a chance to see them again last night at Lee's Palace.

The Edinburgh Scotland band put on an awesome show, as I knew they would. Adam Thompson fills the room with his powerful and highly emotive voice. All together, they fill out the rest of the WWPJ sound with bombastic yet dynamic and melodic guitars, bass and drums.

They don't mess around with a lot of stage banter, other than a sincere thanks to everyone for coming out and seeing this band from far away, and they don't play the encore game. Their solid set featured tunes new and old, and peaked with a rousing rendition of "Quiet Little Voices". It was a fantastic night out at Lee's for a fantastic band.
