Pioneer MC5 emerged on Detroit's rock scene in the mid-60s and revolutionized the rock genre with their unique blend of garage rock, blues, and protopunk. They deeply inspired bands like Ramones, The Clash, and Rage Against The Machine. Now, a new album from MC5 is coming, the first in over 50 years. The release coincides with the band's induction into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, where they will receive the \"Musical Excellence Award.\"

On Heavy Lifting, band founder, guitarist, and singer Wayne Kramer is at the helm, and Bob Ezrin (Lou Reed, Alice Cooper, Kiss) is responsible for the production. Kramer was the last active member of MC5 until his death in February of this year. Among the guest musicians featured are Slash and Tom Morello (RATM).
