Reviews

  • Beachbeatle1's avatar
    Beachbeatle1
    MC5's almost masterpiece of rebellious high-energy max hard-garage-punk-rock that defined the late-60s/early-70s Motor City sound.
    A meaty sonic onslaught with compelling musicianship & consistent songcraft.
    Their swansong LP that could be considered their crowning glory,
    Exhilarating stuff that’s rock solid through & through.
