The Things
The Wild Psychotic Sounds EP - Irish Times **
Wild Psychotic Sounds is their latest release - a self produced six track EP reminiscent of The Gun Club and The Misfits. Recorded, mostly in Dublin, using their 'Rollin Mobile Studio' this is as close to The Things you can get without catching something. - Dazed and Confused
Wild Psychotic Sounds EP - "The Things bring us some of the best punk Ireland has vomited since the 70s, and it would not be unfair to say they've trumped a lot of bands from that era at their own game". - Frequency Mag Ireland
To call The Things spirited is an understatement. Their "Wild Psychotic Sounds" EP finds familiar ingredients thrown into the pot in peculiar measures with some organ propulsion to keep it interesting. There is essence of a lot of your favourites here and word is that they pack quite a live show. It certainly sounds like they’re having fun and are likely gearing up to appear as The Cramps on Stars In Their Eyes somewhere down the road. “La La La La La” land beckons. - Lindsay Hutton (Next Big Thing)
