Album Notes & Community Reviews
Faced with following up the monumental 'Marquee Moon', Television delivered a surprisingly subdued, incredibly lush continuation of their dual-guitar mastery. 'Adventure' is a deeply melodic, remarkably mellow post-punk record, filled with Tom Verlaine's intensely cryptic, philosophical lyricism and highly intricate, passionate guitar interplay.
