Re-issues of two Therapy?'s albums out soon

Re-issues of two Therapy?'s albums out soon

This Irish rock band has been walking on the mainstream tightrope for nearly 20 years now, constantly balancing between artistic freedom and commercial success. The marvelous thing about this band is that no matter how hard you try, you can?t categorize them

You could say that there are basically two types of bands: the first type includes all those lost heroes who follow their creative path from start to finish, never minding the consequences of their artistic choices. The second type gathers all the bright young talents who are more of an industry product designed to succeed rather than a genuine (and thus convincing) musical group. Sadly, it?s usually the second kind that gets all the attention and mainstream success, while the first often ends in oblivion. But what if you try joining the two together? What would come out of such a fiendish mixture? Well? enter Therapy?. This Irish rock band has been walking on the mainstream tightrope for nearly 20 years now, constantly balancing between artistic freedom and commercial success. The marvelous thing about this band is that no matter how hard you try, you can?t categorize them. They?re loud, they?re aggressive and they?re uncompromising, but in the same time witty and charming enough to make you wonder why you haven?t heard about these guys before. They can sell you a punk rock song right after they win your heart with a moving ballad. No wonder they?re so hated by the corporate music business. And that?s exactly why you should love them?

Metal Mind Productions presents re-releases of two Therapy??s album ? ?High Anxiety? and  ?Never Apologize Never Explain?.

?High Anxiety? (2003)
The first album released for their new label Spitfire Records. The LP brought the long-awaited return to the style known from the acclaimed ?Troublegum? album from 1994. Filled with joyful punk?n?roll, ?High Anxiety? featured a number of great songs such as the ironic opener ?Hey Satan, You Rock?, the pop-punk tune ?My Voodoo Doll? or the hard rocking single ?If It Kills Me?. The title of the album was inspired by a 1977 comedy of the same name, written and directed by Mel Brooks. Gaining huge acclaim from both critics and fans, ?High Anxiety? easily became one of the band?s most successful albums in their discography.

?Never Apologize Never Explain? (2004)
With their line-up again slimmed down to just three members, the band released their tenth LP on September 27th, 2004. The album was a return to the claustrophobic style of Therapy??s first two LPs, back from when they weren?t signed to a major label. The angry and absolutely un-commercial nature of ?Never Apologise Never Explain? divided the fans into two groups, one praising the band?s bold approach towards their music and the second complaining about not getting another straight-forward rock album. The LP was nevertheless considered quite successful, thanks to the shining singles ?Rise Up? and ?Rock You Monkeys?.

Both albums will be re-released in a new digipak edition each limited to 1000 copies. Digitally remastered using 24-Bit process, released on a golden disc. The release date is scheduled for 2nd November.
