"Good old-fashioned stomp-driven metal, with a hint of doom, a hint of classic metal, and a hint of contemporary heaviness."-Rob Bohrer, Molten Rock Zine
"4.5 out of 5; Nothing fancy here, just good ballsy and loud metal that we sadly don't hear enough of anymore."-Intensity Zine
"After Therapy doesn't reinvent the wheel, they're simply satisfied to run you over with the wheel that's already there."-CafePress.com
"This CD is out of control, with the edginess of Priest and darkness of Sabbath; After Therapy is going straight to the top."-Frank Helisek, One Tribe International Entertainment
After Therapy is the brainchild of vocalist Dee Calhoun and guitarist Charlie Johnston, who began their musical workings in 2001 with After Forever, a Black Sabbath tribute.
Much like the band they paid tribute to, After Therapy's assault offers no frills or pretentiousness; it is metal the way it should be played--buzzsaw chunky guitar riffs, a concussive rhythm section, and ear-shattering vocals.
After Therapy's second CD Torn With The Teeth is set for release in early 2010. The disc is the long-awaited followup to 2005's Self-Inflicted, which was very well-received by fans and critics alike. The band's return to the stage will coincide with the disc's release.
Fans of bands like Sabbath, Judas Priest and Down love After Therapy's searing classic metal roar. Fans of more contemporary heavy bands love After Therapy's knuckle-dragging low-tuned heavy sound.
Thanks for listening! It's great to see that there are still people out there that dig old-school metal, everyone around here listens to what I call 'shitcore'. Anyway, how goes it?

Is there someone there? Is there someone there? Come talk to us tonight. We’re asking for the dead to speak, It’s only us . . .my wife and me. Come tell us how you died.
The oracle moved about the board A figure-eight reply. The oracle started slowing down, then stopped . . . above the Y.
Tell us more, tell us more, what brought you here to me? Tell us how you died tonight. Tell us when you died tonight. Tell us what brings you here tonight. Keep spelling it for me.
The figure eight continues and around the board it moves. It’s slowing down, it’s slowing down. Come, spirit, talk to me right now, Tell us tonight, because we want to know . . Then the oracle stopped on the letter O.
You’re coming in so very clear, Now tell us why you’re roaming here, on this dark and stormy night. Speak to me, speak to me, Travel through this board to me. Tell us why you sleep tonight beneath your resting tomb. Speak to me, speak to me, speak to me now. Then the oracle stopped on the U.
Y-O-U, Y-O-U, this isn’t making sense. You spelled out, YOU is this what you meant to do? Then the oracle stopped on YES.
