Suicide Pact – You First
1999 studio album by Therapy?
Suicide Pact – You First is the fifth full-length album by the band Therapy?,[4] and the first to be released by their third record company Ark21, following the demise of the band's previous label. It was released on 18 October 1999 and recorded at Great Linford Manor in Milton Keynes from 13 July to 15 August 1999. The album is by far their longest running record at 71 minutes.
The album was a move away from the pop sensibilities of their previous album, Semi-Detached, and was considered a dark and twisted effort, seemingly as a retort to the conditions and restrictions imposed upon them and other bands on major labels. Although the album garnered very little radio airplay,[5] and only reached number 61 in the UK Albums Chart,[6] it received mixed reviews in the press.
The album was released on CD and cassette. The US released limited edition CD-ROM included the video of "Little Tongues First".
The song "Six Mile Water" was written by Cairns about the end of his friendship with ex-Therapy? drummer Fyfe Ewing.[7]
