television|kid
I love you, you love me not.
Delicately strung together, television|kid are at home in the depths of the solitary side of the soul. There, however, is always an “if so”, then, “never-the-less”. An igniting force that propels them on. Infinitely falling. Finally, yet, timeless.
Grounded in the summer of 2005, television|kid is a blend of alternative and emo rock. Melancholy and melodic with slight undertones of metal, television|kid can be likened to the sounds of Muse, Silverchair and Slut.
At home in Vienna, television|kid have been seen live at Szene, Shelter, Planet Music and Chelsea, amongst other venues.
As of May 2006, television|kid can also be purchased on CD. Five songs can be found on their debut EP '20 Seconds Honesty', which was produced by Andreas Fennes in the former Metamorphosis Studios. 20 Second Honesty is the perfect companion for when you are feeling lonesome. Isn’t melancholy lovely?
Apparently, it is just a matter of time before we can expect their first album and cross country tour!

Ich liebe dich. Du liebst mich nicht. Als waeren sie zartbesaitet sind television|kid beheimatet in den weiten Niederungen der einsamen Seite der Seele. Dort ist jedoch immer auch ein Wenn-Schon, ein Dennoch. Ein Funken Kraft, der sie weitertreibt. Im staetigen Fall. Endlich und zeitlos.
Die drei hier angebotenen Songs finden sich auch auf der aktuellen EP "20 seconds honesty", ueber die das deutsche Magazin "HEAVY" in seiner Review schreibt (gekuerzt):
"HEAVY", Ausgabe 07 08/06, Seite55:
TELEVISION KID, 20 Seconds Honesty
[...] Das Trio [...] holt mit seiner Debut-EP umgehend zum ganz grossen Wurf aus. Alle fuenf enthaltenen, famos produzierten Songs gehoeren mit Abstand zum Besten, was in letzter Zeit veroeffentlicht worden ist. Tief im Emo und Alternativerock verwurzelt, gelingt es TELEVISION KID, ausgelatschte Pfade zu verlassen [...]. Dabei wirken die drei Youngster erstaunlich routiniert, so dass '20 Seconds Honesty' eine rundum gelungene und ausgereifte Angelegenheit geworden ist. Es ist nur eine Frage der Zeit, bis TELEVISION KID ihre drei Kreuze unter einen Plattenvertrag setzen werden, denn soviel Talent kann eigentlich auch der blindeste A&R Vertreter nicht uebersehen. [...]
Material fuer ein Album ist bereits vorhanden, jetzt fehlt es nur noch an der Finanzierung, darum wuerden wir uns freuen, wenn ihr mit eurer Unterstuetzung unseren Traum wahr macht! So pleaze believe in us :)

Howdy!
Just wanted to pop in and give you a heads up on Sommersby's October Competition!
If you haven't already heard, the competition (hot on the heels of his recent neck-in-neck September fiesta) will offer 20 parts for the winner and is open to all artists that have between $9999 and $0 in budget.
Please check the forum for updates on contest rules and regs….starts 25 October!
This is a great opportunity for you. Campaign with the believers to let them know you'd like to be nominated and encourage them to vote for you when the time comes.
Of course, if you'd like to, or you know someone who would like to, donate parts for the prizes in the Competition, just send (or have them send) Sommersby the details under a message marked “October Donation."
Hope you join in on the fun and GOOD LUCK TO YOU!!!!

Hi TK!
Due to long inactivity I reduce my parts to 1, as long as I see any sign from you. If you are back again give me a post.

Hi boys! Just wanted to drop a note and say that I enjoyed yesterdays evening show. To make it short.
Pros:
1) Great songs (best was the punk song, worst the slow one)
2) Good equipment and clear sound (great amplifier)
3) That awesome drummer with his precision and raw power !!!!
Cons:
1) Had to wait for one hour, as someone of yours told me 21:00 (at least a had a sure position in the first row)
2) Much too short performance and this awful band after you (singer high on drugs and the guitar men was playing out of sync with the rest)
Sumery: Top! Will invest more when the new sallery arrives.
