Album Review
Therapy?-Crooked TimberTherapy?-Crooked Timber

THERAPY? is a rock/metal-band from Northern Ireland that was founded in 1989 that are still avoiding being labeled in one genre of another after almost 20 years, This will be there 12th studio release.

The album has punk-ish delivery sounding vocals, on enjoy the struggle there is a great bass line from Michael McKeegan although it does sound a lot like the bass line from beautiful people by goth rocker Twiggy Ramirez from Marilyn Manson. The album gets heavy that you can head bang to but then has mellow moments to give your head a rest before kicking off again with the rocking out. It has some sing along choruses like in Somnambulist. Magic Mountain is an instrumental track that seems to have two halves melancholic and then electronic, its experimental and it works. The album closes with Bad Excuse for Daylight with a chugging guitar riff and a off kilter chorus.

Available on CD & Vinyl, out now
