Recording information: The HIT Factory (1982-1983).
A more cleanly produced Television Personalities' record than most of their previous efforts, The Painted Word is also a more serious album, less whimsical but no less charming; favoring a subtle, droning pop sound. Tracks like the politically charged "Back to Vietnam" and the lovely "Someone to Share My Life With" are heartfelt and resonant, foreshadowing the more dramatic twists taken by Dan Treacy's songwriting following the band's long late-'80s layoff. ~ Jason Ankeny
