THE GEEKS가 이루어낸 KOREAN HARDCORE BACK ON THE MAP!의 흥분을 이어나갈 한국올드스쿨/유스크류 하드코어씬에 필청의 앨범으로 남을 THINGS WE SAY의 첫 풀렝스 "OUR DECISIONS"!
2004년 발매된 데모앨범 이후 근 3년만에 발매되는 본작은 12곡의 임팩트강한 트랙들로 채워져 있는데 유스크류하드코어의 정석이라할 매서운 스피드와 매곡 곳곳마다 빛을 발하는 싱얼롱파트와 투스텝파트등은 앨범의 백미이다. 자신의 꿈을 포기하지말라는 메시지의 "Keep Your Dreams Alive"같은 곡은 전성기때의 선배하드코어밴드들인 GORILLA BISCUIT을 연상시키며,자신이 주문한 하드코어앨범을 받아보았을때의 기분을 노래한 "Records In The Mail"은 후렴구의 예상치못한 상큼한 멜로디가 의외로 멋진 곡이다. 마지막 트랙인 하드코어친구들을 위한 송가가 되기에 충분한 "Song For Friends"에선 THE STRIKERS의 보컬인 김성환,13 STEPS의 보컬인 김동경씨가 피쳐링해주어 끈끈한 우정을 보여준다.
이미 THE GEEKS를 비롯해서 THINGS WE SAY,THE PATIENCE,BREAKING GROUND같은 한국의 유스크류하드코어밴드는 유달리 한국에서 인기없는 환경과는 달리 꾸준히 해외에서 많은 관심과 서포트를 이끌어내었다. 두번의 전미투어,세번의 일본투어,동남아투어를 이뤄낸 THE GEEKS같은 밴드이후 자연스레 그 흐름을 이어나갈 THINGS WE SAY의 이번 앨범은 그래서 더욱 의미가 있다 할 수 있겠다. .... ....
