DESCRIPTION
"Slow Children" was an American New Wave band formed in New York City in the early 1980s. Their album "Mad About Town" was released in 1982. The band consisted of vocalist Pal Shazar and multi-instrumentalist Andrew Chinich. They gained some recognition for their catchy, synth-driven sound and quirky lyrics, which often touched on themes of urban life and modern relationships.

"Mad About Town" is considered their most notable work. The album features a blend of upbeat, danceable tracks like "Spring In Fialta" and "Vanessa Vacillating," alongside more introspective and atmospheric songs such as "Staring At The Ceiling" and "Ave Maria." The band's sound is characterized by its use of synthesizers, drum machines, and Pal Shazar's distinctive vocals.
