I think you misread the wikipedia article, which stated that bands such as the C0ckney Rejects, Sham 69, and the Blood (all oi bands, I believe) went in the opposite musical direction from art-punk, believing that punk should be easy and simple to play and be made up of one minute three chord songs, whereas art-punk bands were... artsy... and used complex song structures and all that.
