Hey Therapy? you ROCK

#

Started by voodoo_doll in New Members (Introduce Yourself)

Hi there. Signed up today. Gigantic Therapy? fan, have been for about 14 years in fact. Have and love all their albums (and yes, that includes shameless. Can’t understand why that gets ragged on so much) and several of their singles/eps and such. Only one I’m missing so far is One Cure, which I’m hoping to pick up this weekend.

Hard to pick a favourite, but I’m VERY, very keen on High Anxiety and Never Apologise, both flawless if you ask me. Those two albums are fricking amazing. Obviously, Troublegum and Infernal Love are both immense and Semi-Detached is awesome for the most part.

Found Suicide Pact patchy at first, but it’s growing on me now. Have Caucasian Psychosis in the place of Babyteeth/Pleasuredeath along with Nurse and love the hell out of all of them too. I’ve heard Sprung and have the Rain Hits Concrete EP, so I can tell I’m going to love the newest album.

Couple of questions are puzzling me though!

1) The hidden track on High Anxiety is total awesome-sauce. Why wasn’t it included in the normal track listing? It easily sounds good enough to be on the album lineup proper.

2) Play on, from the Rain Hits Concrete EP is good enough to be a single and yet doesn’t even feature on the album. What’s up with that? (could ask the same question about Evil Elvis, suing god, 40 watt bulb and such too coming to think about it. There’s so many blinding Therapy? tunes that don’t belong as B-Sides.

So anyway, hi, glad to be onboard. If you curious as to why ‘voodoo doll’, I find that song utterly hilarious and awesome. Even when Therapy? are having a laugh at a genre their tunes sound immense.

Oh! Forgot to ask (if anyone’s feeling helpful)

Didn’t mention, but I have lots of holes in my Therapy? collection for missed non-commercial b-sides, bootlegs, rares and such.

Does anyone have any sites with these sort of things on? I mean the rares like Evil Elvis, With or Without you, 40 watt bulb and such, nothing commercial

Any help greatfully received!

Welcome to the WoM. :)

I know Gimmie used to have a site like that, but I’m not sure if it’s still up. Hopefully he’ll pop along and read this and tell you for himself. :)

Otherwise, you can ask in the Buy, Sell and Trade section of the WoM, and people may be able to help you out. Everyone’s really friendly* and helpful here, so I’m sure someone will be able to help you out soon. :)

*excepting the arguments, fisticuffs, and assassination attempts, of course. ;)

Ah damn. I keep forgetting things and it only gives me ten minutes to edit something. BAH.

I was going to ask about about the ‘Hate, Kill, Destroy’ single off Suicide Pact. I’ve seen it on sale on amazon.co.uk for over £115 o.O

Is it really that rare? I know it was the only single off that album, but I didn’t see anything special on the single.

I could understand a high price for a RARE single like Femtex, but is this seller just being silly?

There was a member of these boards selling HKD for £3 last year, so that’s quite a steep step up.

As daryl said, these sorts of questions can best be asked/answered in the Buy, Sell & Trade forum… thanks and welcome :)

Welcome on board.
The seller of the HKD single is just crazy, even for Femtex you don’t have to pay such prices. The HKD single has been on ebay a while ago, for about 5 euro I think and it didn’t even got sold. It’s limited to 2000 copies.
I’ve got a spare HKD promo single, it’s got the same tracks as the single, also the same cover, difference is though that it’s not in a digipack, but just a cardboard sleeve, if you’re interested in a trade, you can e-mail me.

Glad to finaly see someone again who likes Shameless and My Voodoo Doll :)
I hope you’ll like One Cure Fits All, but if you like the RHC ep and Sprung, you’ll no doubt love the album

Aha, so he’s overcharging by £97 or so.

I thought that seemed a bit insane! ^^

Well, I liked the first half of Shameless. Wicked Man, This one’s for you, I am the Money, Give me back my brain and such. The second half of the album I could take or leave IMHO.

It’s not a consistently great album like Troublegum, Never Apologise or High Anxiety, but some people make it out to be total crap when there’s some very nice stuff on there. It’s also more immediately accessible than Suicide Pact. (Discounting Six Mile Water, Jam Jar Jail, Little tongues first and such which are instant classics. As is God Kicks, for the sheer Leonard Cohen/Nick Cave-esque insanity)

That’s just my opinion though and it’s fully open to being shot down spectacularly from a great height!

Sprung is wicked. It’s the default tune at the moment on Therapy’s myspace. Love it. Love Rain hits Concrete too. Play on from the EP should have made the album though. It’s sweet!

I like the song voodoo doll. For me, it’s not the worst Therapy? song. It’s a good pop and punk rock sound

I agree. It’s a extremely silly piss-take of all those pop punk tunes that do the rounds. Anyone that hates it is kinda missing the point ^^

Cool! Everyone is entitled to their own opinion. But remember, the song is a bona-fide piss-take of pop-punk and that’s why I like it ^^

Still, I know I have controversial opinions on things. Example - I didn’t get on with Pleasure Death AT ALL. Love potato junkie - the rest? Nah.

This is despite LOVING Babyteeth with every ounce of my being. An album with seven tracks of which five are classics. (Dancing with Manson, Skyward, Meat Abstract and such. What a CLASSIC)

I just can’t get on with Pleasuredeath. I also think the first half of shameless is awesome up until Delorean. It’s like the album ran out of steam half way through :D

hi, voodood doll

I say it again : “voodoo doll” is a good song.
Maybe not the most original or best Therapy? song, but a good pop punk song.

How saying it’s the worst Therapy? song if you love Therapy? music ?
