I dig the way “Perish the Thought” angrily flows into “Here Be Monsters,” Andy’s menacing growl/soulful wail, the complex, crazed drums and the energy and ferocity of it all. IMO, definitely their best.

Don’t quite know what’s with all the resurrection of old threads but yeah, NANE is deffo up there with the best of T?’s work.
My top three would be NANE, High Anxiety and Shameless. And yes, I know that isn’t most people’s top three so pleeeeease don’t start the whole Shameless debate all over again.

Sorry about the resurrection, guys. I just discovered T? about a year ago and have been buying up their catalog (have all the full lengths, anyway) over the last few months. It’s fucking great to experience so much new (to me, anyway) great stuff in such a short time. It’s strange, I live in the U.S. and it seems almost no one knows this band out here. Trying to spread the word!

I’ve relistened to that album recently. Although it’s the best from all the albums that came out from “Shameless” to “OCFA”, it does have its flaws. And “Long Distance” starts so promising and then the chorus is such a letdown.

Interesting. Don’t really agree, but what would be a better sounding T? album, guitar wise, in your opinion?

Any… OCFA had a decent guitar sound (i’m not talking production as a whole - I know they drown out the drums…) & Infernal Love and Troublegum are the stand out ones for me.
It sounds like there is too much ‘mid’ in the guitars in NANE or they are using some shitty old distortion pedal or something… I just dont like the actual sound of the guitar on it.
This so called life is a stand out track for poor guitar sound - I guess its just personal taste… but it sounds to me like the speaker is ripped on the guitar amp

I like the low fi sound of pleasure death and babyteeth too - so its not just that I like the ‘big production’ sound (Nurse sounds like shit though)
I like the sound of the guitars on Opal Mantra - that is a really nice sound!

Fair enough. But, you’re right about it being personal taste and all, because I love the guitar on NANE for precisely the reasons you do not. Fat, punched up mid. In your face distortion. Love it. But I love the band in all their incarnations, though. Cheers.

I think Andy played with his wah pedal on for the rhythm guitars on NANE, If i remember rightly.
I dont mind the sound of that album, I like it. At least it knows its a raw album, unlike OCFA which is trying to be raw and polished at the same time..

I know what you mean, but I actually really like it. For one album, that is. I love how Therapy? are trying to sound different from album to album soundwise, too.

you know, that’s exactly why Therapy? is my favorite band ever… there’s an album for everything… there are punk songs, ballads, grunge, good ol’ rock’n’roll, whatever…
and NANE is one of my favorites, I was really glad when it came out… I was a litlle disappointed with High Anxiety, but NANE made me think “wow, they still have some GREAT stuff to show”

that guitar tone MUST sound cheap for a reason - i get better guitar sounds out of my zoom fx box played through a really cack bass practice amp!
i like the tone myself, but they could have layered them on a bit more i reckon to thicken it up. i havent concentrated on it but i take it they do one on the left and one right guitar?

i really love nane, and the fact that it sounds raw from beginning to end. in fact it’s one of my fave t? albums and i was really impressed when i first heard it. that being said, i think some songs had more potential but they can’t stand out with nane’s production, it’s just too flattening.

When you can hear to distinct guitar tracks in the left & right channel it sounds ok - If you listen to Rise for example… the guitars in the verse sound fine - but as soon as the main riff kicks in so does that horrible sound and it sounds really flat… the left and right effect seems to go off or is really minimised…
