On their first new record in 24 years, the Jets look to make up for lost time, revisiting a punky, garagey, power-poppy sound whose recent resurgence is more about timelessness than trendiness. Were they a new band, you might hear the jangly \u201cTangled Up,\u201d chunky \u201cNothing Boy,\u201d and aching \u201cGoodbye to All of That\u201d and accuse them of ripping off R.E.M., the Afghan Whigs and the Replacements.
