(TV) Revelons



Anyone on the list have any background on The Revelons?  This afternoon I stumbled across a newly released CD ("Anthology"), as the sticker on the front highlighted "band members from Television and the Patti Smith Group".  It contains recordings from 1977-2002.  Stuff is mainly from '77-'82, with a couple of new tracks from '02.  Fred Smith produced some of the cuts, and is the bass player in the band for part of its history.  I had never heard of them before.  I picked up the disc, and was  quite under whelmed upon first listen.  Mostly second-rate new-wavey music, with over-emoted vocals, and a lack of originality in the music and lyrics department.  Was wondering if anyone else knew about them, or had an opinion about their music.
