__ __ www.jupitersun.com __ __ "In Jupiter Sun's world, Brit Pop isn't a nasty word: it's something to be celebrated. It's a world where jangly guitars and bouncing basslines play with baggy rhythms in the strawberry fields overlooking the Waterloo sunset. A world where the Rickenbacker is King, ruling over his minion of pop kids. And then there's reality, where none of Jupiter Sun's finer points -- strong songs, killer melodies, tight rhythms and an excellent guitarist -- are recognized for the musical virtues they truly are. The Stone Roses and the baggy-styled bands spawned by Madchester fever directly influenced this San Francisco Bay Area band, and they sound proud to wear those influences on their sleeves." - Listen.com by Linda R.
