"Shameless" is the eighth studio album by the Northern Irish rock band Therapy?, released on September 25, 2001. The album follows their 1999 release, "Suicide Pact – You First." Produced by Jack Endino, "Shameless" showcases a rawer, more stripped-back rock sound compared to some of their previous work. The band recorded the album in Seattle, aiming to capture a live and energetic feel.
The album features tracks such as "Gimme Back My Brain," "I Am the Money," and "Nobody Here but Us." "Shameless" did not chart in the UK Top 40 but received positive reviews for its energetic approach and return to a more straightforward rock sound.
Therapy? was known for their unique blend of punk rock, grunge, and metal influences, and "Shameless" continued to reflect their dynamic style. This album is notable for retaining the raw intensity and driving riffs that characterize much of their work. Despite not achieving significant commercial success, "Shameless" is appreciated by fans for its high-energy delivery and the band's commitment to their musical roots.
The band lineup during this period included Andy Cairns on vocals and guitar, Michael McKeegan on bass, and Graham Hopkins on drums. Their collaboration with Jack Endino, a producer associated with the early grunge movement, added an authentic and edgy feel to the album.
