Colvin, who also creates the album’s striking cover art, infuses his unique artistic vision throughout.This release includes standout tracks like “Tilt-A-Whirl,” which incorporates an actual recording of a carnival ride, and the haunting outro of “My Life,” which reimagines the band’s earlier song “Still Life of Peace” to the tune of The Beatles’ “Blue Jay Way.” "The Buzz" pays homage to a legendary Houston rock station, adding to the album’s nostalgic rock narrative.The 2024 Brutal Planet Records reissue of The Horse That Bud Bought on double Solar Orange vinyl offers a fresh and immersive way to experience one of Galactic Cowboys' most personal and creative albums.

This is more than just your three-chord thud! The Boys seems to have entered into a crazy dimension where past meets present to form a solid '90s metal sound fused with elements of psychedelic progressive rock peppered with elements of, dare I say, pop tunes that ROCK, or rock tunes which have just the right pinch of pop sensibility to make 'The Horse That Bud Bought* an instant classic; but fear not, the Cowboys still manage to maintain their familiar quirky arrangements and level of wit. With Huggins, Farkas, Doss and Colvin all sharing songwriting responsibilities, an interesting mix of topics arise; from Colvin's "Evil Twin" - where the need to own up to our own wrong doing is highlighted - and "Oregon" - concerned with false teachers - to a critique of the media in "The Buzz," "Tomorrow" and "Media Slant," and from general social comments ("Tilt-A-Whirl") to a critical look at one self ("Bound" and "My Life"). Overall, 'The Horse That Bud Bought* is an extremely tight, diverse and powerful album which is perhaps more accessible than both 'Machine Fish and "Feel The Rage."
