About the artist

MC5

Hailing from the gritty streets of Detroit, MC5 are the quintessential embodiment of rebellious rock 'n' roll energy. Formed in 1964, this quintet of raucous revolutionaries - comprised of vocalist Rob Tyner, guitarists Wayne Kramer and Fred "Sonic" Smith, bassist Michael Davis, and drummer Dennis Thompson - burst onto the music scene with their raw, unapologetic sound that shook the foundations of the establishment. MC5's fusion of blues, garage rock, and proto-punk elements created a sonic cocktail that was both explosive and liberating. Their incendiary live performances became the stuff of legend, with Tyner's wild stage antics and the band's ferocious guitar riffs igniting audiences into a frenzy. With their seminal debut album "Kick Out the Jams" released in 1969, MC5 cemented their status as pioneers of the burgeoning punk rock movement. The title track, a call-to-action anthem that oozed with defiance and attitude, encapsulated the band's radical ethos and set the tone for their uncompromising approach to music. Despite their brief commercial success, MC5's impact on the music world cannot be overstated. Their influence can be heard in the snarling vocals of The Clash, the blistering riffs of The Stooges, and the DIY ethos of countless punk bands that followed in their wake. In a world plagued by conformity and complacency, MC5 dared to speak truth to power and challenge the status quo. Their legacy lives on as a testament to the enduring power of rock 'n' roll as a force for social change and cultural revolution. MC5 will forever be remembered as the fearless pioneers who kicked out the jams and fought to keep the spirit of rebellion alive.
