"Founded in early 2000s, the A.R.of Bzzz brings together Arto Lindsay, Mike Ladd, Marc Ribot, Sensational and its leader Seb El Zin, also known for being composer-singer in Ithak. Claiming the influence of the kabbalist Abdul Vector Von Hassid, this sonic nation distills on its first record a raging mix of sharp noisy post-no-wave guitars and urgent rap. Some electro color also emanates from crazy architect Seb el Zin's mix. Kiki Picasso's cover places the recording in a geopolitical context where William Burroughs drops acid with Bin Laden."

Anarchist Republic Of Bzzz is the exceptional and ephemeral reunion of two cult guitarists, Marc Ribot & Arto Lindsay and two inspired and engaged rappers, Sensational & Mike Ladd, with Seb el Zin at the helm. The group displays a level of urgency too rare nowadays. These five musicians break free from all the music rules and transcend all styles. This isn't free jazz per se, nor free improvisation or dub or hip-hop -- actually, the Anarchist Republic Of Bzzz's sonic manifesto is simultaneously all that. This album is released exclusively on LP, housed in a scandalous sleeve designed by Kiki Picasso, who is the founding member of Bazooka, the punk graphic design team that revolutionized the art of illustration as a whole in the late-'70s.
