Advantages: Catchy riffs and grooves. Disadvantages: Could be doing with a few more tracks after a 3 year break
After a 3 year break, re-grouping, re-focusing and re-energising as they put it, Therapy? are back, and dare I say it, better than ever, with "Crooked Timber" - a follow up from 2006's "One Cure Fits All". An album they themselves describe as focusing more on rhythm than melody, it is certainly a step away from their previous rough and raw releases of "Suicide Pact - You First" and more recently "Never Apologise Never Explain" from 2004. This album seems much more suited to the mainstream, much like their previous effort.
Here's my run-down of the tracks as they play on the album.
The Head That Tried To Strangle Itself (3:25)
If you've got a sub woofer, turn it up. Beginning with a heavy mix of guitar and drums, this is an good opener and sets out the focus of the album from the start.. Instructed to sing like he speaks ...
Advantages: Baby Sleeps! You Sleep! Disadvantages: They don't make them in adult sizes!
your child grows. I would recommend that you purchase a minimum of two Grobags of 2.5 Tog and at least one 0.5 Tog bag. You will need a minimum of two bags in case of night time accidents or illness.
You can wash a Grobag on a 40 or 60 wash cycle. Although the Grobag website recommends 40 as extra shrinkage can occur at 60.
I would like to add that Grobag branded sleeping bags sell exceptionally well second hand on ebay and you can quite realistically recoup at least half your expenditure on selling. They are also a popular listed item and there are always buyers and bidders. I recently sold a Grobag that I purchased for £26.00 on ebay for £19.00!
There are also some additional products that you can purchase such as a travel Grobag for use with car seats and pushchairs. Your child can fall asleep on the move and it is easier to ...
Advantages: - Thrilling, good treatment to details of every character. Disadvantages: -Might appear unbelievable at a few instances
This book apart from being a nice reading, brings out psychological aspects of various characters in the most amazing way, from a 13 year old child to a 70 year old man. Invisible crookedness i.e. crookedness of mind is the most dangerous thing around. Anything which is not in the proper order gives a strange feeling. any usual thing kept unusually makes people suspicious. For example, a picture hanging upside down will make one feel uneasy though it might be just by accident. In the same fashion, the only fact that a particular person resides in a crooked house brings uneasiness to the reader about some crookedness which might have crept in the personality of the resident. The best part about the book is, the murderer and the murdered, none seem to be guilty and none seem to be innocent. Overall, an enjoyable read. ...

Album Notes
