When there was a question like, "would it be there an Indonesian punk's band who got the same musical quality as classicals Sex Pistols, Sham 69, Buzzcock, Cock Sparrer, etc?". And DOM 65 with their "Secret Warehouse" EP would be the right answer. Formed in Yogyakarta Indonesia in 1997, after some album released, finally DOM 65 change their musical direction into 80's rock revere to band like Pink Floyd, and even they did a cover song from Pink Floyd entitled : "Shine On You Crazy Diamond". But as the band always say, that '77 Punkrock and Oi! tune would always be inside the soul of DOM 65. But they did being influented by 80's rock heros all at once. And the real result: The music stands among Hardrock, Punk, Avantgarde Rock, Progressive Rock, but still running on the main track of Punk Rock. Containing 4 tracks, "Secret Warehouse" EP would be very enjoyable when you listen to it while a bottle of hard wine handled in your hand.
Their 1st LP, "Greatest Pledge Articles" enjoying their fusion on Progressive Rock structure with long duration and complicated arrangement. This should be a great expectation in Oi!/Streetpunk scene. In 2010 they're turning back to Oi!/Streetpunk era [artisti]Cockney Rejects and Sham 69 that also found on "Secret Warehouse" EP.

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You've got too many fists on your broken nose
Reds on your clothes and you get standing up
Are you really down? No, you ain't collapse yet
No, you ain't collapse yet
Many of eyes looking at you sit on a dirty chair
You're the key player in this greatness night
You make it so easy for this and you ain't collapse yet
You never listen and you've known what happened
You have a serious problem with your conduct
Drinking too much and you'll get a good fight
101 longest rounds, yeah you ain't collapse yet
