Next week: the wheel- just what is it?

Title: Still Good Stuff

Less urgency than NANE but far more craft I feel. Sprung, Dopamine would really easily fit onto Troublegum/Infernal Love for their mid-90’s heyday. The vocals are the best they have produced in years and the song structures of Dopamine and Unconsoled in particular remind me once again of Husker Du (Big shout to Bob Mould for the chords on Dopamine). Our White Noise I think could be a live legend too. There seems to be be more of a passion than a rage which is in effect more intense.
Really enjoyed it far more on the first listen than NANE and has made the best impact on me since Semi-Detached.

Be careful at announcing that you love Helmet. It could be easily misconstrued by dirty minded scamps like myself. Fnarr.
DWM:D

Is Other People’s Misery in this Poll? GRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!
I’llhave to vote for something else now!
DWM :rolleyes:

Title: Andy’s Nose secretions

If he’s got snot with Bar Steel concrete reinforcing rods in it then his bogies are one of the components in the flyover currently being built on the A500 in Stoke on Trent.
There’s me thinking a C20 slump mix of aggregate would have sufficed. However…

Title: My Tuppence Worth (merged)

Hello All :)
Post rarely but fancied stick my oar in here. Just really got into the depth of NANE. Got to admit it didn’t hit me with the immediacy of High Anxiety for example but I do have to admit that on the third or fourth play, this is the best thing Therapy put out since Semi Detached. There’s an intensity here I’ve not heard for ages, and I seem to be picking up a lot of The Pixies, a little Dead Kennedys, particularly on the solo breaks which are heavy on the treble. Nice dirty downtuned sound though, good distortion giving a raw sound.
However, two tracks stand out. Rise up appears to be a mega fast upgrade version of Turn. I kept thinking where have I heard that Chord Progression before? Turn at 100mph! Fucking works really well. I think I read Andy cited Ministry as an inspiration for this, but in my opinion. Off on a completely different tangent, are there any of you old enough to remember Thin Lizzy’s “Bad Reputation” or “Johnny the Fox” or “Suicide?” Smells familiar in structure and a fine inspiration!
And as for Long Distance, that has to be the most maturely crafted Therapy tune since Safe. It’s a work of brilliance. Very reminiscent of Bob Mould’s Guitar playing, particularly in Sugar. Bought everything by the lads since first hearing them and then seeing them in Cardiff in 94. Actually wearing my “Like it or Fuck Off” t shirt purchased at that Gig today!
Now I’ve got to say, best thing in my CD player this year (even though I’d list Ash’s outstanding Meltdown , Flogging Molly’s Drunken Lullabies and Veruca Salt’s 8 Arms to Hold You (not released this year but ace anyway) as close runners up too. Though I hugely enjoyed a Russian bootleg EBAY copy of Motley Crue’s Shout at the Devil!) (Yes. I’m 32 going on 15.)

PS Has anyone got a spare Punk Floyd shirt? Was going to buy one in Newport in 95 but was skint and never saw the buggers since.

Title: Pointing

Dammit.

Title: Thought I’d Step in here

Didn’t fancy being pointed at in the newbies section! Cardiff Astoria 1994 my first T? gig (and still one of the most violent I’ve ever been to) and seen them on every tour since…a feat inspired by no other band. How odd! Support from My Pet Lamb and Dig as I remember. I remember the Astoria looked like a battlefield after the gig, with walking wounded hobbling down Queen Street to the bus station afterwards. Happy days. Even though I had a nosebleed and a black eye.
