Television

A really big version of a computer screen. Mostly used to display pointless videos and for console gaming. Very popular among humans.

Jack turned on the television and there was nothing on. He kept watching anyway.

Once envisioned to be the replacement for books and a useful educational tool. Now it is simply a useful method for the government to send subliminal messages and propganda to the masses, and for businesspeople to brainwash said masses into buting their low-quality products.

And it is quite surprising and scary that there are millions of people out there who ACTUALLY buy the products aired on late-night television commercials.

Television

American band formed in 1973 in New York during the birth of punk and having a major impact on punk, new wave and alternative music with their first album titled "Marquee Moon" in 1977. Their sound was based around minimalism, and the raw sound of garage rock of the 60's, a far cry from what may be considered "punk" today. While they may be labeled a protopunk band, their influence comes in at a later date than other bands under such label.

Tom Verlaine (Guitar/Keyboard/Lead Vocals)
Richard Lloyd (Guitar)
Fred Smith (Bass Guitar)
Billy Ficca (Drums)

Television's "Marquee Moon" belongs in every rock music lovers collection.
