    Amazing debut from the Mystery Jets. Songs like You Can't Fool Me Dennis and Soluble in Air are immediate classics.

    I'd love to give this a 10 but, for me, "Little Bag of Hair" and "Making Dens" just drag it back a bit. With that out of the way, Zootime is no less than one of the greatest songs this century.

    "Making Dens" is an immensely graceful, charming record that does a flawless job of capturing the air of good-natured abandon that defines the Jets' live shows.

    There are a couple of songs hidden away in the backwaters of their patchy debut which hint at something much better. [Apr 2006, p.88]

    This is a fantastic, passionate and wonderfully eccentric debut album that's also a thrilling advert of what's to come.
