Is it true Keith Baxter (ex-3CR and Elevation) has joined T? on a permanent basis?

Keith isn’t ex-Elevation as far as I know. But I don’t think they are doing anything until they tour in the autumn so he has some time on his hands.

Fyfe was excellent drummer no question about that but why don’t some of us fans except that that Fyfe is yesterday’s papers, gone, past and he won’t come back because like Andrew James C. said HE (Fyfe) was the one who left the band…

Is this ‘Please, bring back Fyfe, he’s the only drummer for Therapy? and they’ve went to shit after he left’ never gonna end..? :o(

With Fyfe Therapy? was Mark I, with Graham it was Mark II and now we are going to Therapy? Mark III. I sure hope so that Andy, Michael and Martin finds a great drummer that fits into the band and stays more than few years. And also I hope that they don’t became like for example The Cult and Spinal Tap with this drummer-in-drummer-out-thing…

I think for ‘Old-Skool’-fans it is okay, to hope that Fyfe would come back, because it reminds many people of the ‘glory beginning’ of T?. I also would be happy, if Fyfe would join in again. But nevertheless, Graham also did a fu—ing great job, and I have no problems with a complete new drummer. The only thing I want is: T? have to rock on, otherwise this would be the end of an era… (P A T H O S!).

Therapy? Elevated by new drummer
Temporary replacement for Hopkins

Therapy? have found a replacement for drummer Graham Hopkins who left the band in January. Kerrang! understands that ex-3 Colours Red/current Elevation drummer Keith Baxter will join the band on a temporary basis.

I consider myself as a ‘Old-school’-fan but to be honest I don’t really miss Fyfe that much because the last two years with Fyfe in the band they weren’t ‘a band’. Fyfe stopped singing and mainly spended time with himself. He was/is great drummer though! As Andy and Michael has said that when Graham and Martin joined they felt that they were BAND, if you know what I mean.
Somehow some of the ‘Old-School’-fans just wants the band to do Troublegum-like records and stay in the same level as they were. I found very pleasing that they have made different kind of (comparing to each other) records and that it takes some time to get used to the albums.

Yeah, I mostly agree with you. For me, the Troublegum-period wasn’t the most exciting era. I think T? have to offer much more than (nevertheless fucking gooooooood) pop-punk-songs a la ‘Nowhere’. Just listen to SP-YF. The only dissapointing thing is, that Therapy do not get the attention, that they would deserve…

@ Shra-Mee: about that attention thing: it’s just a promotion thing, in my opinion the record company is doing a very bad job. They definately deserve to get more attention/fans/money/fame/whatever they want to have!

Yeah definately! But what can we do? I always put T? records in front of the other albums in record stores… but that doesn’t help ;-)

Pop-punk or not, for me, there will never be a better song than Nowhere. After all, it was the song that got me into Therapy? No matter how often I hear it, I can’t get enough of it!

I didn’t wanted to say, that Nowhere and such stuff is shite. I also like these songs. I mean to be honest, most of us, got into T? during the Troublegum-era. But I think T? should not be reduced just to this album. But most people do. So, hopefully, no one feels offended…;-)

Of course I’m not offended, I too think that Therapy? achieved much much more than just one good album. But the thing with Nowhere is that I saw it the first time in ‘94, and it took me 5 (!!!) years to listen to Troublegum. I immediately started with Nowhere, cos I never forgot it, and I loved it! Of course my collection steadily increased ever since!
One more nice anecdote: In ‘94, I was still really into 2 Unlimited, and when the VJ said ‘Next is one of the biggest selling bands of the world’, I expected 2 Unlimited. Instead, they showed Nowhere!!! I never forgot it, so that’s how I got into Therapy?

I mean, the best selling acts for me are stuff like Madonna, U2 and Britney Spears.
