About this album

Frenzy is a sharp, inventive turn from Split Enz, the New Zealand band whose eccentric flair helped shape Australasian art-pop into something unmistakably their own. Released in 1979, the album bridges their early theatrical experiments and the tighter, hook-driven style that would soon bring wider recognition. Its blend of pop rock, restless rhythms and off-kilter melodies gives songs such as Give It A Whirl, Stuff And Nonsense and I See Red-era energy a distinctive bite, while the band’s playful imagination keeps the record unpredictable throughout. Frenzy helped set the stage for Split Enz’s breakthrough years and remains an important step in their evolution.

Genre: Pop & Rock
