Re: Focus in Other Bands & Artists
Superb band. The current lineup is fantastic. If you get the chance go and see them. Saw them in Glasgow in March and they were probably one of the best live bands I’ve seen - Just brilliant!

OK who’s the motorcycling Therapy? fan in Edinburgh? in Chit-Chat
Coming up to the lights this morning and noticed that the motorcylist in the inside lane had a gemmil patch on the arm of their jacket!
Fair play :-)

Shawn Smith? in Other Bands & Artists
Any other fans on here?
Saw him last night in Edinburgh in his first ever UK gig - just Shawn and a piano. He played solo stuff, Brad and Satchel tracks and even had time to fit in Crown of Thorns by Mother Love Bone which was the highlight on the night for me.
Been listening to his stuff for years - didn’t think I’d get the change to see him play live.
Superb ;-)

That’s him! He was subbed not long after coming on as a… sub! Totally useless!

Re: Name the new Therapy? Album! in General Therapy? Topics
I’ll suggest the same title as I did when this was asked before OCFA.
“Fat People Are Harder To Kidnap”.

Re: When Good Bands Do Bad Things in Chit-Chat
Just my opinion but I’d have to say Therapy? and OCFA. Didn’t like it much at first and it sounds worse everytime I listen to it.

Re: 2008 in music in Other Bands & Artists
New Opeth is what I’m ost looking forward to. A new T? would be great but only if it’s better than OCFA - I couldn’t handle that crippling disappointment again!

Re: Concept Albums In General in Other Bands & Artists
Ayreon - The Human Equation
An oustanding piece of music which has loads of guest vocalists James LaBrie (Dream Theater), Mikael Ã…kerfeldt (Opeth), Devon Graves (Dead Soul Tribe), Devin Townsend (SYL).
A concept album about a man who has a car accident and ends up in hospital in a comatose state. The car accident was very bizarre: it was broad daylight and there was no other car in sight. His wife and his best friend are keeping a vigil at his bed, trying to understand what happened, hoping he will wake soon. Cut off from the outside world, the man finds himself trapped in a strange realm where his emotions- most of which he’s ignored for a long time- have come to life to confront him with all the choices he has made in his life. As he is taken from one memory to the next, he slowly becomes aware of all the events leading up to his accident, and realizes that if he ever wants to wake up from his coma, he must find a way out of his prison…
Sounds wanky but is honestly a fantastic piece of music :-)

Re: Album of the year? in Other Bands & Artists
Can’t believe I wrote ‘Dark Planet’ instead of ‘Blank Planet’.

Re: Album of the year? in Other Bands & Artists
Can’t decide really but so far the nominations are:
Riverside - Rapid Eye Movement
Porcupine Tree - Fear of A Dark Planet
Dream Theater - Systematic Chaos
Probably in that order aswell.

@ LuncayBooth - Why so? If you hate the band chances are your gonna hate the record so I just want to know how come you hate them?
I don’t hate them - as musicians thay all have an impressive back catalogue. I just think VR make horrible music.
They lack any real spark for me. It’s kind of music by numbers, unoriginal, generic, uninspiring, standard fayre which could have written by any number of 8th rate rock bands. There are hundreds of bands churning this shit out and most of them will never make it.
If you like them go enjoy but not for me.
