"J Xaverre finally gets around to releasing his debut album, These Acid Stars. And what an eye-opener it is. Having gained his reputation blending electronica with his songwriting instincts, J Xaverre -- (aka former Kenickie drummer/guitarist/producer/songwriter type Johnny X aka Pete Gofton) -- has made an album several notches up from his previous lo-fi explorations. Self produced in parts, mixed by Dave Trumfio of Wilco and My Morning Jacket fame in others ('Great All Great' and 'Saturday') and collaborating with King Of Woolworths in others ('Ex-Wonderboy'), These Acid Stars ditches any notion of JX being solely an arbiter of lo-fi introspection. These are pop melodies enough to give Damon Gough a seizure, and epic moments, which recall anything from Mercury Rev to Grandaddy and Sparklehorse."

"3 track CD with two exclusive tracks 'Strange Thing' and 'Making The Most Of A Beautiful Day'. Recalling the great lost George Harrison/Beta Band collaboration, or Kid A on Sunny D. It gives the likes of the Polyphonic Spree and the Sleepy Jackson a run for their money in the nu soft-rock stakes. JX has managed once again to draft in Los Angeles wunder-producer David Trumfio of Wilco and My Morning Jacket fame, to assist with production duties."

"JX is, to all intents and purposes. Pete Gofton. Recorded in Pete's bedroom it's a tricksy combo of dirty great bass, acoustic strumming, sweet vocals and topped off with lo-fi electronic atmospherics."
