Listening to Infernal Love for the first time since the 90s.
Could never really get into it at the time and I can see why. What a strange, mixed-up split personality of a record.

The transition from Nurse to Troublegum to this is really something.
A very deliberate attempt to abandon what they were very good at (blistering, catchy punk with noise sections), and do something more considered and mature.
But it comes across as a very strange mishmash of lots of things that were becoming popular around 1995: Use of classical instruments (especially cellos); overlong songs with endless verse/chorus/verse structure, very little in the way of humour...
It seems like a very deliberate attempt to court the Britpop-obsessed indie press as well as the culture sections. And it worked! But god was it dull.

Infernal Love is one of the worst albums ever made. Therapy? have been shite since Fyfe Ewing left.

and the husker du cover is an abomination
This is another case of a band that I haven't thought about since probably 1996 and look them up now to see that, holy hell, not only are they still a going concern but they've just released their sixteenth album. Had no idea.

That's what happened to me and that's why I received the thread tbh. They were hugely popular with my friends in the 90s and then some time after 1998 I never heard about them again beyond "they've released another album"
