In terms of production values, Nurse is almost as much an opposite to the following masterpiece "Troublegum" as is their cathartic "Suicide Pact - You First". The difference is that during "Suicide Pact...", the sound was left brutal and unaccessible on purpose, while as with "Nurse", they sound was left thin by circumstances (lack of money being one, perhaps?). All in all, this thin, clunky and fuzzy sound sometimes fits the music almost perfecdtly. at least it brings a certain freshness to the music, something taht lacks from some of their "more produced" albums like "Infernal Love" or "Shameless". This is not your commercially succesful indie-metal-anthem Therapy? of the "Troublegum"-era, nor is it the goth-driven experimentalist band we learned to love/loathe/tolerate with "Infernal Love". Nurse is full of uncompromising and inventive rock songs, less melodic and less straight-forward than with the following album, but nevertheless brilliant.

Loud, explicit, grating, troubled, tortured... this is Therapy? At least "I" feel better.
To be honest, I enjoyed Caucasian Psychosis more... but then I hated Troublegum and everyone else seems to drool over that release, so take it for what it's worth.

I ran in to this album by accident. Lucky find! I never heard anything quite like it. It's raw, grinding, it lingers in you. The way they play just blows me away! The energy is unbelievable! My favorite songs are 'Disgracelands' 'Gone' & 'Neck Freak'. 'Neck Freak' is the absolute best. gives me chills, every time I hear it.
