My copy of Scopophobia finally arrived last week, and so i’ve been thinking about Therapy? alot this week!
I think that Therapy? should be bigger than the Foo Fighters. I was a huge Therapy? and Nirvana fan back in 1992. Troublegum was awesome, and then the first Foo Fighters album was amazing too. Even though both bands haven’t produced better albums than those, the Foo Fighters are now writing macho-cock-rock arena-rock, where-as Therapy? are still sticking to their roots, which may be to their detrament.
I feel quite let down by the governors of grunge ie Dave Grohl and Courtney Love. It seems that Andy Cairns goo nature and loyalty to the music has held Therapy? back from being mainstream chart toppers. Now I know that most chart toppers are bland, manufactured shit. But it would be great to see Therapy? playing Top Of The Pops again and bombarding the charts with great rock tunes.
Any thoughts?
