Split Enz

Musical Group

Split Enz are a New Zealand rock group formed in the early 1970s, noted for their theatrical presentation and a transition from progressive/art-rock eccentricity to a concise New Wave sound in the late 1970s and early 1980s.

Key public facts: formed in New Zealand; prominent during the 1970s and early 1980s; associated members include Tim Finn and Neil Finn; notable songs include "I Got You" and "History Never Repeats."

Two appreciative DeBaser reviews by Jukan highlight Split Enz's transition from prog-adjacent eccentricity to a concise New Wave voice. The reviews praise Second Thoughts for its theatrical prog-cabaret and Waiata for its polished New Wave songwriting. Both reviews award the albums 5/5.

For:Fans of 1970s-1980s New Wave, art/progressive rock listeners, and readers who enjoy ironic, character-driven album reviews.

 It's from New Zealand that Split Enz come, what has been defined as the most underrated Rock Band of the century.

 I consider it one of the most pure and sincere albums of the New Wave era.
