1) Blitz, British punk band
Blitz were a British punk band who had enjoyed success in the indie charts in the early 1980’s. They were often lumped in with Oi! bands such as The Cockney Rejects. They came from New Mills in Derbyshire and were enthusiastically championed by music journalist Garry Bushell.
2) Blitz, Brazilian Rock Band.
Blitz was the first Brazilian rock band to achieve mainstream success and to have hit singles (Você não soube me amar, A dois passos do paraíso, Ana Maria (biquíni de bolinha amarelinha tão pequenininho)) kick-starting the movement the 1980s boom that would later be called “BRock”[1].
Its “classic” (first) formation included Evandro Mesquita (voice), Lobão(drums), later Roberto “Juba” Gurgel), Antônio Pedro Fortuna (bass, formerly with Os Mutantes and Lulu Santos), William Forghieri (keyboards) and Fernanda Abreu and Márcia Bulcão (backing vocals).
In 1982, the first compact, “Você Não Soube Me Amar”, achieved a huge success, followed by the album “As Aventuras da Blitz”. Due to its success among children, they even publish a comic book.
Still in 1982 they recorded their first album “Você não soube me amar”, an immediate success with fourteen songs and a comics-like design. The logo resembles that of X-Men comics.
They split in 1986 but some of the original members got back together ten years later. Since then they are making sporadic shows in Brazil.
