"You understand what I mean by 'they'. You know who they are. They are not essentially Republicans, but they have seized the Republican party as a vehicle for their ambitions. They are the partisans of privelege- the champions of monopoly- the opponents of liberty, the adversaries of the small buisness man, amd the small farmer. They have been here a long time. They used to run the Earth and run the world of men, but now- just now- they're losing out. They are making one of their last stands in this election. Must I name them? You know who they are. They have a long, long, weary, bloody history"- Orson Welles
"Weve been through some things together With trunks of memories still to come We found things to do in stormy weather Long may you run"- Neil Young
"If hymns were rock music sung to worship whatever you happened to believe in then it would sound like Zak Smith...These are the thoughts of a man in his mid-twenties. Rather than confounding us with wisdom beyond his years he is being true to himself and singing about what he actually knows and with that comes a certain frankness. Combine that with a soulful but raw voice and guitars that are alive with riffs and energy"-Glasswerk.com album review.
