"All in all "The Zealot Gene" offers a good collection of songs, perhaps not as strong as "Homo Erraticus" but still a respectable outing. A few tracks are marred by patchy, inconsistent production but otherwise Anderson and company are sounding in good form. Whether the brand is "Ian Anderson" or "Jethro Tull" seems to matter little even to the artist (probably more-so to the label) but regardless of what's in a name, hopefully Anderson will remain too young to die and deliver more of his musical charms in the coming years"
