Sotsugyo TIME ~bokura no hajimari~

After released two singles, here come their first album “Sotsugyo TIME ~bokura no hajimari~”. This album released on March 01, 2006 and got #2 in Oricon weekly chart position. The previous song from their 3 singles before also included in this album.

This album start with their hit song, Boku no Kimochi and follows with their new song, Zenshin, a fast and more to genre rock song. This song for me just an okay song, I dont quite like the verse of this song. After feel a little bored with the previous song, my emotion increase with the 3rd track, Sotsugyo TIME the song from their indie single. Nothing much to say ’bout this song, as this is also one of the best song come from WaT.

Track 4; Answer an acoustic song with the use of an electric guitar. Like Ano Hi their first single song, the arrangement of this song also beginning with verse from Teppei, continues with Wentz verse and finally they sang together. I do like this song very much. Track 5; another my favorite song; 5 senchi, a song from their 2nd single.

A ballad song from Eiji Wentz are in track 6; Hadaka. A solo song from Wentz, with the usage of soft piano melody and for me its a good song. After listening to Wentz ballad song, here come solo song from Teppei – a more upbeat song with the usage of guitar and harmonica. For me; I will get a dream also a good song.

Track 8; Natsubi another an okay song from them. Even though it is a fast-tempo song but I quite not like it, the verse are quite bored. Michishirube; track 9  :  a nice song, and I kinda like it… actually its a good song. An acoustic song, simple but still use the nice melody.

Track 10; Hajime no Ippo, for me an okay song but still have its own uniqueness. Even though the verse not so good, but they are something special in the chorus and the BGM. Otonashi, Track 11- a fun song with lot of BGM. The song are so happening, the music are more catchy and the arrangement of the BGM are good.

Track 12 and 13 are the Bonus tracks for this album; the song from their independent label single; Wentz TIME and Teppei TIME. A solo version from them and both song have their own uniqueness. Even though, the rythm still used the original (Sotsugyo TIME),  but each song have added some flavor to give the different to it.

Overall for me this is a good album.
