Considering this record was mainly written during the studio recording sessions, it is a wonder that it turned out to be such an excellent offering. You may not think this on first (or even first 10) listen, but once it gets under your skin you will come to love it. The highpoint (as of now - my favourite track keeps changing) is the particularly nasty 'neckfreak', other notable tracks being 'nausea', 'disgracelands', 'gone', and the fabulous 'teethgrinder', which the prodigy have ripped off massively on just about everything they have ever done since.
Continuing their tradition of no two albums sounding the same, nurse is best described as halfway between caucasian pshychosis and troublegum in style. But then again, it is not either of these albums, and stands alone as a great piece of work. Buy it now!

this is therapy?s first album and was released in 1992,they had released two raucous punky fuelled eps prior to this and this was a change of direction as it was more industrial and rocky affair and if im honest this isnt as infectious as troublegum on the first few listens,i think thats universally accepted but the more you listen the more rewarding the album becomes.
The album opens with nausea which is regarded as a classic for its sharp riffs and andy cairns laid back vocals,with a snarl in the undertone.Teethgrinder follows and thats still a live favourite,accelerator is also a bonafide classic,as are disgraceland and gone.
Its an album that has a very raw feel to it as the production isnt that polished,but in a way that adds to the albums mystique,its an album that delivers primal slabs of attitude but with hints of melody,they would of course turn into one of the 90s most accessible rock bands,here they started to turn peoples heads.

This rolled out of the ground at the end of the initial 'grunge' overhype, a belligerent snarl out of a still very-much-troubled Northern Ireland.
The highlights are as per those listed above - I really love the intro to "Nausea" (perfect for that first song on Xmas day!) but the highlight for me is "Gone", which touches so many raw nerves I can only listen to it in a darkened room on my own.
What followed after for Therapy? was an initial smoothing of their sound in the slicker "Troublegum", thereafter it all went wrong and Fyfe Ewing left, taking with him some of the most inventive percussion ever to grace my ears...

before the metal came
Similiar style to the two EPs that preceeded it, this was the angular, post hardcore sound they had before going all "Kerrang Metal" on us with Troublegum. Read more
