harder than I thought but I'll go B I might be the only person you know who really connected with them with "Adventure". I'm not sure why.

A is OK I suppose. Not half the mayhem they think they're making, though. B is one of the few Television tracks I really like.

a - well, as others have noted, the vocalist is pants, or at least out of place. Someone with an vocal range as deep and hoarse and affected as that should be fronting a black metal band (preferably one not allowed in a recording studio) rather than a straight up rock outfit who perform the cliches (which may not have been clickes when they recorded it - I didn't look them up) pretty well. 4.5 / 10 b - I may have mentioned before that I prefer this album to Marquee Moon, because I like the more female production in general. In particular, in this song, I like the way the long spiraling lines of the guitars are recorded, and the vocal harmonies. Good stuff 6.5 / 10

A is as dreadful as I feared it would be - just unlistenable. B is a really nice, gentler side of Television.

Rob Zombie is quite a likable bloke, one of those who seems to get the ridiculousness of all the metal stuff despite being part of it. That said, his music is tosh and I have no interest in his films either. I'm almost tempted to vote for him because it brings back memories of me and a friend graffitiing desks at school with "PROPERTY OF ROB ZOMBIE" but the other song is by Television, and even though it's not one of their best, it has a lovely guitar sound.
