Athletico Spizz '80: Is That the DRI Logo?
Athletico Spizz '80 and its front-man Spizz cropped up late enough in the UK punk and post-punk scene to have benefited from learning after watching other groups’ successes and failures. Of course, it’s lone long player from 1980 isn’t too frequently referenced as a watershed moment by anyone. There are, however, more than a few moments on the debut that are worth getting into especially considering the relative renaissance Gang of Four and its cohort has appreciated over the last decade. Spizz isn’t punk or post-punk, but seems to have seen enough to make sense of it all. Kinda.
