Here in 2014 allow the Burnt Sugar Arkestra to introduce it's avant funk & roll splinter cell ... REBELLUM.

Gripping the sum of REBELLUM's parts LIVE demands one apprehends these factions: The two-part super-fly vocal frontline of Mikel Banks & Shelley Nicole; those ace riddim section companeras, The Buckeye Bass Mack, Jared Michael Nickerson & our 主要 Man from Japan on Kick & Snare, Hiroyuki "Matsu" Matsuura, Valerie June Guitar Hero, Ben Tyree, Bari Sax Goddess for TVOR & Nick Waterhouse, 'Moist' Paula Henderson, Billy Ocean Tenor Sax Hooksmith, V. Jeffery Smith, William Parker Trumpeter of Choice, Lewis 'Flip' Barnes, Vernon Reid Keyboard Liberator, Leon Gruenbaum.

Let us also give a shout-out to our Master Blaster Master-eur Tom Ruff for Asbury Media ... Ya Heard!

File under Grown & Sexy Avant-Agit-Pop. The 20 songs on REBELLUM's debut album "The Darknuss" on their own label, AvantGroidd Musica, burst forth a bloody profusion of exotic trace elements--warped soul harmonies, freedom swing horn play, maggot brained guitar implosions and arkestral loopadelics in the dark.

REBELLUM's song titles loudly & proudly represent the ranting swoon of their Afro-Futurist insurgency: ''Start Thinking like An Afreakun," ''The Darknuss," ''Rock Star Amnesiac," ''Who's Loving You Now?," ''Chains & Water / No Coloureds Allowed," ''There Is A God (The Singularity)''and ''Young Frankenstank."

The spirits of Sun Ra, Ron Hardy, Eddie Hazel, Gary Numan and The Emotions are all welcome here.
