Reviews & Opinions

JEFF BALE, MAXIMUM ROCKNROLL #5, MARCH/APRIL 1983: The best thing about this new BLITZ 45 is that it will piss off the more narrow minded Oi-sters. It really breaks the standard "skunk" mold with a schizoid musical approach combining NEW ORDER (squeaky clean production, a dance-oriented beat, a tinkling piano) and GARY GLITTER (superheavy drums and repetitive singalong choruses) influences. I long for the crunching guitars of their "All Out Attack" EP, but I'm thankful that they're not just recycling their more derivative recent material.
