       About SPLIT ENZ
    This is a Split Enz Fan Page Split Enz was a successful New Zealand band during the late 1970s and early 1980s featuring brothers Tim and Neil Finn. Their musical style was eclectic and original, incorporating influences from art rock, vaudeville, swing, punk, rock and pop.

    The band started life in 1971 at the Auckland University, where Tim met up with (old friend) Mike Chunn, Robert Gillies, Philip Judd and Noel Crombie. From 1972 the band became a full-time occupation for the friends, and they called the band Split Ends. The spelling was later changed to Split Enz when they went on their first trip to Australia, to signify their New Zealand roots.

    They were widely known for their unique visual presentation. Their costumes and hair were like nothing else, wild and colourful and inventive. The costumes were designed by Noel Crombie, who also designed most of the group's other visual material, such as stage sets, posters, stickers and album covers, as well as directing many of the band's music videos.

    The group's career falls into two distinct phases. The first was firmly rooted in the progressive rock scene of the early 1970s. The Enz started out as an adventurous, flamboyant art-rock band -- although their music was generally far more accessible than some of their more grandiose European 'prog-rock' counterparts. This first incarnation lasted about five years, through their move to Australia and the early part of their stay in England, and closed with the departure of co-founder Philip Judd in 1977. During the transitional period of 1978-79, a new line-up consolidated behind Tim Finn, and though they struggled to survive, they gradually reined in the more extreme aspects of their music and presentation without sacrificing their individuality. In 1980, Split Enz (Mark II) scored major successes with a superb trio of early 80's albums -- True Colours, Waiata (released as Corroboree in Australia) and Time & Tide -- which made them one of the most successful and popular Australasian groups, a position they held until their final split in 1984.

    It is also notable that Split Enz only recorded original material; every song on every Enz album and single was written by members of the group.

    Durante los meses de verano JUNIO, JULIO y AGOSTO, recordaremos los "promos" de RISING, LINE OF TIME y LOST IN A DREAM.

    Disfruta del verano con algunos adelantos de las canciones que formaran parte de OUTSIDE TIME.

    Hemos elegido como PROMO la primera vez que RISING sonó en la radio, esto ocurrió en ONDA REGIONAL DE MURCIA, dentro de su programa TREN DE SUEÑOS a cargo de MIGUEL ÁNGEL KEATON, el 16 de SEPTIEMBRE de 2008.

    Para JUNIO es el momento de RISING...

    Nuestros mejores deseos...

    OLD FUTURE CRASH


    During the summer months of JUNE, JULY and AUGUST, we'll remember the "promos" of RISING, LINE OF TIME and LOST IN A DREAM.
    Enjoy the summer time with some advances of the songs that will be part of OUTSIDE TIME.

    The PROMO we have chosen this time, corresponds to the first time RISING was broadcasted on the radio, at ONDA REGIONAL DE MURCIA, in its program TREN DE SUEÑOS, leaded by MIGUEL ÁNGEL KEATON, on September 16, 2008.

    For JUNE, it's the turn of RISING...

    Our best wishes...
