"Far East New Rock Invention 1969–1975" is a fine compilation that chronicles Japan's transition from polite 1960s pop into a fierce, unhinged counterculture rock revolution. Released via the 180g label, this carefully curated 9-track retrospective serves as a reminder that while American bands were shifting the cultural landscape of the West, Japanese musicians were creating a parallel, equally volatile sonic boom in the East.
