Limited Edition 180g 2LP!
2024 Studio Album by Detroit's Punk Rock Pioneers!
Featuring Tom Morello, Slash, Vernon Reid & More!
Includes Bonus Disc of Previously Unreleased Live Recordings!

Led by MC5 founding member Wayne Kramer and produced by the iconic Bob Ezrin, Heavy Lifting signifies a momentous occasion – the release of new MC5 music, a staggering 53 years since their last album in 1971.

The music community recently mourned the loss of MC5 founding member Wayne Kramer and Dennis "Machine Gun" Thompson, the last members of the original MC5 lineup, accompanied by messages of love from the world's greatest rock stars. MC5's enduring influence and cultural significance are solidified by their induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2024.

Heavy Lifting features an all-star lineup of guest musicians including Slash, Tom Morello, William DuVall (Alice in Chains), Vernon Reid (Living Colour), Tim McIlrath (Rise Against), and many more.

Bonus LP 2 contains previously unreleased live recordings from the MC50 tour celebrating the 50th anniversary of Kick Out the Jams.

...the final work of one figure in 1960s rock who never burned out or became quaint, and came roaring back for an impassioned and powerful final act.
-Mark Deming, AllMusic.com
