Baby Zizanie was one of the many projects of J.G.Thirlwell (of Foetus), this one a collaboration with Jim Coleman (ex-Cop Shoot Cop), active from 2002 to 2003. Back then they played several gigs, among them a live session on Fabio's show on WFMU (Real Audio | Playlists), and released the 12" mini-LP Domestic Landscapes #3: Thalassaphobia on the Nail label in Italy in a limited edition of 500 copies. Later they recorded one more track for the Domestic Landscapes CD compilation on Nail, and then they disappeared.
According to J.G. Thirlwell, a Baby Zizanie anthology at some point in the future is possible, let's hope that this will eventually materialize. In the meantime, he has kindly given his permission to post one track from Thalassaphobia: Baby Zizanie - Milky Rise (MP3)
By the way, the word "thalassaphobia" is apparently a misspelling of "thalassophobia", which according to Wikipedia is "an intense, irrational and persistent fear of the sea".
