“The MC5 represents a kind of uncompromising vision of the future and that is eternal…the flame keeps burning on.” - Wayne Kramer
‘Heavy Lifting’ is the new studio album by Detroit’s punk rock pioneers, MC5.
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.
Format Bonus CD & LP: Disc 2 / LP 2 contains previously unreleased live recordings from the MC50 tour celebrating the 50th anniversary of ‘Kick Out The Jams’.

[@guessundheit6494]

The last two years have been magical, SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO many classic acts coming back and making incredible new albums as good as their best of the past: Deep Purple, Ian Hunter, Girlschool, and now MC5, among others. This is my happy place. Even some of the new young rock artists are fantastic.

[@MonstersMaster]

MC5 WILL NEVER DIE

[@zenbuddah420]

Sounds good 🤘🏽 Wayne Kramer is high with me right now 🙏🏽

[@Katia_Targaryen]

[@enricomosca4674]

Can't stop listening. Save me.

[@rodionsosnovsky9971]

Круто! Ждём нового альбома. Всегда уважал эту группу. К тому же они одни из первых, кто начал играть тяжёлый металл 🤘🏻

[@kicksometennis]

Very good track. Nice harmony.

[@neutronbomb10]

This is a banger

[@Aleprofessor100]

O espírito do MC5 deve permanecer aceso em cada um de nós. Esse foi o legado deixado por Wayne Kramer em nome dos 5: Rob, Dennis, Fred, Davis, Kramer.

[@jeszczealexkos8999]

This is rock and roll. Real Music, not AI.

[@peterfinestone8606]

so so good

[@peterpandemonium3336]

So good or just so-so?

[@kamistormcelestekennedy]

Hell 🎉yeah!!❤🎉

[@williamsloan5228]

RIP legends.

[@ianswanson5022]

Hell of a song. Bravo Wayne, Dennis & Co. 🤘🏻

[@muzorewi]

Both Wayne and Dennis are currently deaded, they will not be able to read your comment.

[@TheLarryburns84]

​@@muzorewi and so is literally the rest of the original band, your point? it's equally unlikely they would've seen this comment even if they WERE around

[@doctorrivas]

Welcome effin back!!!!!!!!!!!

[@bobbyliebling8968]

Fu….in’ Killer track‼️🔥🔥Following in the forever continuing saga of MC5🔥👀🩷❗️ B.L. 6/12/24

[@berealsupportive2744]

I'm interested in hearing this album because i read that the Alice in Chains singer William Duvall is featured in a song. He is not Layne Staley but he has done an amazing job with the band all of these years as the second lead Singer. :)

[@stefanmrkonjic9279]

DuVall + Slash on the same song :)

[@davidmarple4422]

He’s not Layne Staley?!? I thought he was!!!??!

[@PrimitiveInTheExtreme]

🤘🔥🤘

[@amangogna68]

Great music, amazing vocals and band !

[@fittatilfardin]

Who sings on this track?

[@PiotrLangtvedt]

Really good!

[@itinerarierrantiealtro]

The choir style Motown ohnonono

[@Terryu1180]

Big slaps

[@jorgbrand8724]

I hope the bonus release of MC50 live will be more convincing.

[@ReeseChown]

Detroit rock n roll til the world blows

[@Desetivado]

🐯🏹

[@melancholysighco8284]

I like the song. Definitely could use a little remixing though.

[@garyharris7733]

Thank you for kicking out some new jams, motherfuckers!

[@damienlindsay4569]

Not the Mc5 !

[@Mikklee]

So close to be a banger, the vocals isn't "flat" enough. It's way to clean compared to the guitar. But overwall it's a good song that I think still resembles MC5, especially the High Time album, turned out way better then expected

[@cyrielwollring4622]

So that´s where the Eagles of Death metal got the inspiration from.

[@ArkangelRock87]

This is fuckin incredible, Esto es mucha sabrosura del rock n roll, Excuse me my spanish 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻😛😛😛😛

[@felix5115]

The logo these days reminds me somehow of Blues Pills

[@Pamplemousse82322]

Where's the guitar???

[@ΟρέστηςΚαραογλάνης]

De troit. DE TROIT

[@gusironside3735]

Bizarre mix - drums and vox mixed high, guitars way too low. Hope this isn’t the strongest track from the album.

[@DSilvergun]

Agreed the rhythm guitar is WAY too low in the mix.

[@happapaa]

Yes, this is Mc5. Guitars should be LOUD !

[@danielkroha5440]

Vocals WAY too loud.

[@enricomosca4674]

The mix of "Kick out the jams" wasn't perfect too. What a shame! Lol

[@gusironside3735]

@@enricomosca4674 Kick Out The Jams sounds incredible. This new song has none of the MC5 spirit.

[@nickthabit420]

Guitar sounds like a pedal DI not an amp?

[@DSilvergun]

MC5 touring this album?

[@PaulNewport]

Errr....

[@benjordan8889]

Guess you didn't read the article KRAMER R.I.P.

[@jdmac44]

Maybe holograms?

[@paulholmaniii9691]

From the grave possibly...

[@gusironside3735]

Only if there’s a hologram tour.

[@kp8747]

All due respect to WK RIP but yeah this is nothing

[@vinnieb87]

Horrible production and the whole thing sounds way too pristine and clean. Sadly this seems to happen to lots of older musicians who come back to recording after a long time away.

[@davidmarple4422]

Let’s see you do it better at any age.

[@bairesmax5965]

Its more a production thing and hard to have a say from the grave :/

[@jadong8989]

Oof

[@jennnooch]

This is not what I was expecting at all :( not that its bad, just not punk/hard enough for me. At. All.

[@jasonvoorhees3069]

….boring.

[@nickspinner2479]

Huh? This is just not good. Sounds like a garage band without the garage.
