  Psychic TV - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Psychic TV (sometimes spelt Psychick TV) or PTV, is a largely electronic music group with occasional forays into psychedelic, punk, and experimental music.
One of the distinctive features of Psychic TV as a band is that it is a so-called "super" group that includes members from other bands psychicly as well as physically.
Alexander Fergusson was a member of the punk outfit Alternative TV, which may have been the inspiration for the name Psychic TV.

 History of Alternative TV   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
To fulfill its mission in the arena of television broadcasting, CPB funds diverse and innovative television programs and distributes grants to 352 public TV stations (PBS) throughout the United States and its territories.
Its obvious drawback is that it has a limited reach, and therefore, cannot contribute to a national level dialogue on issues that the American public has a right to participate in.
Until we create the avenues to guarantee real alternatives on a national scale, we can expect the range of expression to continue to be quite limited.

That matter aside, Alternative TV is probably best known for the oft-anthologized single, "Action, Time, Vision" (pictured at right) and even better known for leader Mark Perry's Punk Fanzine Sniffin' Glue.
This effort by the reformed Alternative TV is overall a satisfying record (though AMG says otherwise, but what do they know?) Admittedly there is no real stand out tune like their classic "Action, Time, Vision" single but there are some real gems here.

Alternative TV isn't the most original of band names, but to be honest, I'm still not sure if I'm supposed to take it for its unoriginal face value, or chalk it up as Limey cheekiness.

Oddly enough, Alternative TV did produce some worthwhile music and had a long career for a band so conspicuously lacking in talent (Perry led a version of this band until 1990).

 Alternative TV- Mark Perry interview
Emerging from a bureaucratic existence to become transformed by the punk phenomenon enough to create one of its first zines, Mark Perry made Sniffin’ Glue into a mainstay of the scene.
Though obviously using punk as a starting point, the band extensively drew on its roots with dub, heavy metal, psychedelic and art-rock (the last three being heresy with purists).
PSF: On "Alternatives," you actually come out in the end and sort of berate the audience, saying how much you love them but how they piss you off sometimes.
