Ireland In 50 Albums, No 7: Troublegum, by Therapy?
Therapy? released Troublegum in 1994.
Northern Irish rockers Therapy? made a dent in the musical mainstream in 1992 with debut long-player Nurse - but it was the 1994 follow-up, Troublegum, that truly set the group on the path to success.
Though the album’s accessibility and commercial success marked it as a point of departure for the band, some of its musical ideas date back to early demos, with underlying influences that went right back to vocalist/guitarist Andy Cairns’ childhood in Ballyclare, Co Antrim.
