A monumental achievement that shed light on the intellectual side of post-punk rock.
The song is a culmination of sharp twin guitar interplay and a cool soundscape that evokes skyscrapers.
Television's meticulous song structures and Tom Verlaine's literary lyrics create a unique world. While possessing the impulse of punk, their musicality, which shows progressive developments throughout, symbolizes the intellectual side of the New York punk scene.
