Abalando a Sua Fábrica (Portuguese for "Shaking Your Factory"[A]), also referred to as 100% Charlie Brown Jr. – Abalando a Sua Fábrica as per the cover, is the fourth album by Brazilian alternative rock band Charlie Brown Jr. Released on November 1, 2001 through EMI, it was the band's first album not to come out through Virgin Records, to count with guest appearances by other musicians, and to be produced by either Rick Bonadio or Tadeu Patolla.
Abalando a Sua Fábrica sees the band shifting away from their previous rap rock-inflected sonority, advancing towards a "rawer" style more influenced by punk and garage rock.[1] It was also recorded with all instrumental parts simultaneously instead of one at a time, as if they were recording live.[2] The album spawned three hit singles: "Lugar ao Sol", "Hoje Eu Acordei Feliz" (which had a critically acclaimed music video directed by filmmaker André Abujamra) and "Como Tudo Deve Ser", included in the soundtrack of SBT's reality show Casa dos Artistas.[3] Selling over 100,000 copies, it won a Gold certification by Pro-Música Brasil.
