Benjo Kazue

Benjo Kazue is interdisciplinary artist from the dregs of gonzo rock n' roll. He fuses creative non fiction, new journalism, autobiographical fiction and armchair philosophy with cut and paste collage into tactile works of contemporary beatnik reportage with a potent combination of sensorial force, vivid language, existential meandering, nihilistic humour and gonzo poetry. Benjo's creative non fiction, journalism, music criticism and commentary have been published in street press, national media, literary journals and websites over the world including Bengaluru Review, Joao Roque Literary Journal, Collapse Board, NME and Monster Children, leading renowned rock critic Everett True to claim he could be Lester Bangs incarnate. Benjo is currently the editor and genius at the helm of DIY literary journal and indie publishing house 'Cosmic Phallusy', which was shortlisted for Best Overall Zine and Best Lit Zine at the 2022 Broken Pencil International Zine awards.
