We are extremely thrilled and honored to announce our offering to the brilliant and extensive MUSLIMGAUZE discography!

Armsbazzar investigates both released and unreleased selected recordings from the intense period comprised between 1994 and 1997. Included are the out-of-print Hebron Massacre and Gulf Between Us singles, which feature two of the longest, most stunning and hypnotic MUSLIMGAUZE pieces ever – plus two inedit, highly percussive tracks taken from the recording sessions of the mythic, yet still unreleased and unheard, Zamindar album.

Presented in our custom 6-panel digisleeve packaging - which also houses a 5-color poster - adorned by the highly original and strong artwork from the fantastic Iranian visual artist Mohammad Fadaei. Mastered by Peter Andersson and limited to 999 hand-numbered copies.

Unfortunately Bryn Jones, this eccentric music visionary and controversial figure who spent a lifetime moved by personal beliefs and relentless dedication to the Middle East issues, is no longer with us, but his unique and disturbing music is carved in stone and will always be in our hearts and minds.


MUSLIMGAUZE - Armsbazzar
Boxset edition - limited to 149 hand-numbered copies


Armsbazzar is also available as a beautiful deluxe handcrafted boxset, in which we used various techniques for the box itself, including texture, cracking varnish and copper painting.

Included is the standard edition with poster wrapped in hand-painted and rubber stamped cloth, a set of 6 5-color printed cards with fantastic artwork and drawings by the genius Iranian artist Mohammad Fadaei and a silk-screned-hand-painted 73x55cm cotton cloth also displaying a disturbing image by Mr. Fadaei. Plus strange souvenirs, including a set of arms and a small doll - all them handmade items representing elements from the album artwork.

This is another unique piece of art carefully thought and executed by Uirajara Resende and Iremir Oscar. Long hours, days, nights, months, maybe a whole year preparing this edition, which we do hope you enjoy.

As usual, each copy is unique!

Notice: this boxset will be shipped carefully packed between thick styrofoam blocks, so please allow 2-3 days for the shipment of your order. Thanks!

Postage costs have dramatically increased over the last months, but are still included in our prices.
The price includes s&h via Registered Air Mail to anywhere in the world.
