Background notes
Archive material and source history
Blitz Kids formed in London in 2003, with Rhys Jones on vocals and Terry Tierney on guitar. They brought in Joel Edwards on drums and Jake Pettifer on bass to round out the lineup. Their first single, "Never Die," came out in 2005 and got some attention for its aggressive tone, though it also drew criticism for lyrics that some felt promoted violence.
They kept putting out music that stirred things up. Another single, "St. The band released albums like "The Blitz Kids" in 2006, "The Modern Age" in 2008, and "Underneath" in 2011. Songs like "On My Own" and "Sometimes" showed their knack for melodic hooks wrapped in a raw, post-punk energy.
Eventually, Blitz Kids went on hiatus. Their catalog, including tracks like "An Eye For A Diamond" and "An Ink Blot In a Blood Clot," captures a specific moment in the mid-2000s British underground scene, loud, contentious, and briefly unavoidable.
