So Much for the Ten Year Plan: A Retrospective 1990-2000
So Much for the Ten Year Plan: A Retrospective 1990-2000 is a compilation from the Northern Irish rock band Therapy?, released on 2 October 2000. It was the second release on their label, Ark 21, and it allowed the band to meet outstanding obligations to Universal Records. It came out on CD only, and the UK limited edition added a bonus disc of six tracks.
It looks back over the band's first decade, a run that began with Babyteeth in 1991 and took in Troublegum, Infernal Love and Semi-Detached. For longtime followers, the draw is two tracks recorded specially in May 2000, "Bad Karma Follows You Around" and "Fat Camp". The collection reached number 111 in the UK Albums Chart, and it works as a handy snapshot of where the band stood at the turn of the millennium.
