As faixas variam muito de estilo, indo do hard rock (Freedom Of Rhapsodia, por exemplo) até o funk/soul, passando também pelo rock psicodélico "fuzzado", acid e progressivo. Percebe-se uma boa mescla de música (principalmente rock) ocidental com os ritmos e folk regional. As letras são em inglês e outras na língua local, algumas bandas também ousaram ao fazer críticas políticas, já que o país passava por uma ditadura. Algumas passagens "matadoras" de guitarra, presença de órgão em alguns momentos marcam bem esse lançamento. Destaque também para as faixas "Do What You Like", do AKA, "Evil War", do Shark Move e "Freedom", do Freedom Of Rhapsodia e a longa e bem trabalhada "Don't Talk About Freedom", do Gang of Harry Roesli.
No geral, uma compilação de muita qualidade, recheado de boas músicas. Altamente recomendado para quem está conhecendo ou quer conhecer rock da Indonésia e também para fãs de prog/psych dos anos 70.

Recent compilation of obscure pearls of unknown regions of rock in the '70s. Those Shocking Shaking Days was originally released in 2011 on CD by Now-Again Records and contains 20 remastered songs from different groups and all forgotten rock in the country during the 70's (1970-78), it was also released as 3xLP bringing a book with pictures and stories of each band. Most of them were formed in the late 60's and several launched an LP at the time.
The tracks vary greatly in style, going from hard rock (Freedom Of Rhapsodia , for example) to the funk / soul also reaching fuzz psych/acid rock and progressive. We can listen a good mix of Western music (mostly rock) with rhythms and regional folk. The lyrics are in English and other local language, some bands also made political criticisms. Some passages of "killer" guitar , presence of organ in a few moments mark this release as well . Also highlighting the tracks " Do What You Like", AKA; " Evil War " by Shark Move and " Freedom ", Freedom Of Rhapsodia .
Overall, a compilation of high quality , full of good songs. Highly recommended
