from Neddal Ayad at Roadburn  8/2005

--   Jupiter Jefferson's "West" was a nice surprise...a disc of dark, droning rock 'n' roll. There are some similarities to Queens of The Stoneage's earlier material, namely the hazy, gloomy vibe that permeates the disc but they don't quite sound like the Queens -vocalist/guitarist Aaron Armstrong's voice brings to mind the late Elliot Smith and the music is more reminiscent of the later Screaming Trees records -in other words neo-psychedelia, extremely well done neo-psychedelia. I believe the disc is self-released so check out their website for more info.

(translated from italian by google)

"The six brani that compose the album are an optimal business card, considering above all that we are speaking about an absolute debut. The riff scarni and being involved of “Sunshine” and “Ice house” they rest on melodie languide and dreaming atmospheres, introduce to us in a dimension melliflua where the body loses weight and flies high in the sky. “Never” and “Afterglow” are long psichedeliche escapes towards elsewhere ignoto, of the soft ones fresco that with their charming force they produce an incredible state of trance. Title track and “the Zero” head instead at the acoustic depositor, sending back often and gladly to cantautorato of Nick the Drake, Tim Buckley and Neil Young.
