Ok, I must admit that I've never been the biggest fan of Therapy? I've never understood what's so great about them... To me Therapy? is just a mediocre hard rock band (and probably will always be, unless they'll release a really good album). By the way, Never Apologise Never Explain is already their tenth album.

Songs are of quite even quality... They're mediocre hard rock with some nice melodies every now and then. There were some good ideas occasionally, but altogether they weren't enough to save this record from being on the middle stage (average). Most of the songs just didn't succeed in convincing me. There were few songs I quite liked, but I would have hoped for more. Well, maybe next time...

Production on this album was ok, but it wasn't great. The mix could have been better and also the mastering needs some improvement. There was some occasional distortion audible, which was a little bit annoying. However, there wasn't anything extremely wrong about the production (it was just average).

If you're a fan of Therapy?, this album might please you... It has its good parts, but it could have been a lot better. I think Therapy? doesn't have anything to stand out from others. Be sure to listen before buying!
