2024 Studio Album by Detroit's Punk Rock Pioneers on 180g Vinyl LP!
Featuring Slash, Tom Morello, William DuVall, Vernon Reid, Tim McIlrath & More!
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.
