Released in 1979 on Rough Trade Records, "Cold City : 4" is a seminal post-punk 7-inch EP by the English band Spizzoil, fronted by the perennially changing vocalist Spizz. Produced by Mike Thorne, the four-track vinyl record—comprising "Cold City," "Red & Black," "Solarisation," and "Platform 3"—is highly celebrated by collectors for its tense, eerie, and atmospheric blend of raw punk energy and minimal electronic instrumentation.

Spizzoil - 6000 Crazy 7''
Released in 1978 as the debut single from British punk/new wave band Spizzoil, "6000 Crazy" is a seminal 7-inch EP that stands as a cornerstone of the early post-punk movement. Published by Rough Trade Records (catalogue number RTSO-1), the 3-track release—featuring the titular A-side alongside B-sides "1989" and "Fibre"—showcases the chaotic, high-energy style of frontman Spizz. Highly sought after by vinyl collectors, the record exists in several distinct pressing variants, including the 1978 original with a "Copyright Control" or "Orwell-Endwell" credit, and a 1980 Lyntone reissue featuring a "Blonde Reed" publishing credit.
