Album Notes & Community Reviews

Tom Verlaine's second solo album continued the angular guitar language he developed with Television while placing it in shorter, more direct songs. 'Dreamtime' balances wiry post-punk arrangements with his elliptical lyrics and characteristically sharp lead guitar phrasing.
