MC5 - Heavy Lifting + MC50 Live

Earmusic - 0219310EMU

2lp 180g Gatefold + Mc50 Live

Produced by Bob Ezrin, "Heavy Lifting" comes 53 years after the last MC5 album "High Times" was released. A comeback album half a century in the making! "Heavy Lifting" pays homage to the fearless spirit of MC5, reminding us of the power of music to challenge the status quo and spark meaningful social change.

With tracks that delve into the tumultuous times we face today, the album stands as a testament to the enduring relevance of MC5's message. With featuring artists like Tom Morello, Slash, William Duvall, Tim McIllrath, and more, this album is a collaborative effort that bridges the gap between generations of musicians inspired by MC5's fearless approach to music and activism.

It's more than a trip down memory lane; it's a resounding affirmation that the spirit of punk endures.

2LP contains previously unreleased live recordings from the MC50 tour celebrating the 50th anniversary of 'Kick Out The Jams'. Alongside Wayne Kramer, MC50 features Soundgarden guitarist Kim Thayil, Fugazi drummer Brendan Canty, and frontman Marcus Durant (Zen Guerrilla).
