Rating: The music enthusiast believes they are listening to the best, often considering themselves a film and literary critic too, all fueled by a couple of Truffaut films and a few Burroghs books on heroin they've read.
The music enthusiast is someone who never changes their mind; if they once said that album was bad, well, that's how it will remain. They are more obstinate than flies that keep crashing into windows, but at least flies have the excuse of freedom.
"Horse Republic" is an album that takes on multiple directions. It is meticulously detailed and full of nuances that the listener can discover more with each listening. It’s not the usual jazz, though jazz is never usual.
This masterpiece could be inflated with grandiose words, endless technical judgments, and diverging opinions, but I certainly won’t be the one to cast the first stone. I won’t be the music enthusiast. To me, the Zukanican represents a group expressive of everything that isn't conventional.
Listen to them, plunge right in, comment, critique, express an opinion, disapprove, evaluate, scold, feel alive... I am sure one day you will change your mind.

The album is filled with the most varied of sounds and images, each more beautiful than the last.
A masterpiece piece. The album closes in a gentlemanly manner, strolling in slippers in the atmospheres of “Flying Teapot” by Gong and “Waka Jawaka” by Zappa.
