Therapy? - BANDMATES - Sonisphere Knebworth 2014

Therapy?'s story stretches back to 1989, when vocalist/guitarist Andy Cairns, bassist Michael McKeegan and drummer Fyfe Ewing - three young men in thrall to Captain Beefheart, The Stooges, Killing Joke, Motorhead, Detroit techno and the most scarifying, scabrous loathe songs oozing from the American noise rock underground - first set to forging their own none-more-bleak tales of alienation, desolation and dislocation in small town Ulster rehearsal rooms. The first fruit of their unholy union, the whirring, grinding 'Meat Abstract', a seven inch vinyl single released on their own Multifuckingnational Records label, was championed by venerable Radio 1 DJ John Peel, bringing the trio to the attention of respected London indie label Wiiija. Two thrillingly aggressive mini albums - 1991's Babyteeth and 1992's Pleasure Death - followed: both topped the independent music charts in the UK and Ireland as the word-of-mouth underground buzz on the band was amplified from a whisper to a scream. After a major label bidding war, the trio signed to A&M Records, delivering a Top 30 single (the gleefully unpleasant amphetamine-abuse anthem 'Teethgrinder') and Top 40 album (Nurse) for their major label paymasters in 1993. The following year saw the Larne trio hit their commercial peak: a Trojan horse pushed into the mainstream, the tightly wound punk-metal of Troublegum propelled the band into the UK Top 5, sold 750,000 copies worldwide and spawned no less than five Top 40 singles ('Turn', 'Nowhere', Die Laughing', Trigger Inside' and 'Screamager', the lead cut from the 1993's Shortsharpshock EP), landing the band a Mercury Music Prize nomination in the process.
