Will SHAME be the opening band of THERAPY? for their Milan concert

The tour of the Therapy? will soon touch down in Italy with two dates, set for Monday 4 February 2019 at the Serraglio in Milan e Tuesday 5 February at the Hall in Padua. I tickets for the Milan date are available on the circuits Vivaticket e Ticketone (online and points of sale) and to access the concert you will need to have the ACSI cardTickets for the Padua date are available at Do It Yourself. Be wary of unofficial sales channels!

Supporting them on the Milan date will be the Shame, a Lombardy band active since the early 2000s, with an angry and passionate style that harks back to the Seattle grunge of the 1990s and to theUS alternative metal. Shame have a first EP and three albums to their credit, plus they boast a tour that saw them around the world in 2015 between the USA and Europe. In June this year, they opened the Padua concert of the Alice in Chains and finished recording their latest album.

Therapy? are Andrew James Cairns (vocals and guitar), Michael McKeegan (bass) and Neil Cooper (drums). Last 21 September they released Cleave (Marshall Records), the fifteenth studio album consisting of ten tracks that the trio describes as well-calibrated, violently intelligent, passionate and powerful. A fierce critique of the current state of affairs, a powerful, provocative and uncompromising collection from a band that has never been afraid to confront the darkest impulses of humanity and examine them.

"We live in times of great conflict, declares the frontman Andy Cairns "Look at what is happening now in the US, in the UK with Brexit, between North and South Korea, or between Israel and Palestine: it is impossible not to notice a general climate of confrontation and turmoil. Some of these conflicts have been going on since time immemorial, but while we were busy writing the album it seemed that they had all reached their climax. Cleave is our response to the divisions we see around us."
