Location: Derbyshire, UK
Active: 1980 – 1983
Originating as an oi-punk band belting out beery anthems of fighting and street punk life, Blitz made a transition to postpunk. Their early material consisted of songs like ‘45 Revolutions’ and ‘Fight To Live’. With the release of ‘Second Empire Justice’ they made a significant departure to a more post punk sound adopting synthesizer and a more cascading guitar swapping distortion for chorus. Despite being a phenomenal achievement, they split up after the album didn’t sell, too far ahead of its time, apparently.
