Slapshock’s latest record under EMI Records compiles the band’s greatest gems—all withstanding the test of shifting trends and fads. Frontman Jamir Garcia seconded Lee’s claims by rationalizing the need to look back and gather all the songs that defined Slapshock for the fans and the local industry as a whole.

“Ten years, feeling namin set aside muna natin ‘to, then on to a new beginning. New challenge naman for us,” nodded Jamir.

Recollection attests to the band’s versatility throughout the years. The 16 tracks are chronologically arranged, documenting the various phases of the five-piece hard rocking unit. A separate CD contains all of Slapshock’s music videos.

Lee generously revealed that the band has a handful of new songs, which they’re hell bent to release as soon as possible. Maturity and experience are likewise shaping the band’s musical point of view.

“We’re now more focused on the melody and a song’s overall structure,” beamed Nadela. “May mga sigaw pa rin pero pili na lang and they’re more placed as compared siguro noong una na even the verses were delivered aggressively.”
