They had two releases, "Bedrock Blurr" and "Befo Da Awbum". The second of these albums was released on theEarache Records label with catalog number MOSH5.Two members of Spazztic Blurr were previously, or perhaps concurrently (sources differ), members of Wehrmacht.

The main Spazztic Blurr album was reviewed in the influential
Thrasher (magazine) by Brian "Pushead" Schroeder (himself a member ofSeptic Death ) in 1988. He described the record as "a wacky, enjoyable platter. Sort of like the ultimate thrash party album."Discography
