Kick Out The Jams (Ultra Clear/Red Splatter Vinyl) (Rocktober)

In the immortal words of MC5, it's time to "Kick Out The Jams" with this Rocktober reissue of their groundbreaking debut album. And let me tell you, this ultra clear/red splatter vinyl is the perfect way to experience the raw power and energy of this iconic Detroit rock band. From the moment the needle hits the groove, you're transported back to the late 60s, to a time when rock 'n' roll was still dangerous and rebellious. MC5 were pioneers of the proto-punk sound, and this album is a testament to their uncompromising attitude and blistering live performances. Tracks like the title track and "Motor City Is Burning" are as exhilarating and urgent as ever, with the band's signature distorted guitars and aggressive vocals cutting through the air like a sonic sledgehammer. And let's not forget about the controversial "Starship," a rambling 12-minute jam that still sounds ahead of its time. But what really sets this reissue apart is the sound quality. The remastering job is top-notch, with every instrument and vocal track crystal clear and full of power. It's like hearing the album for the first time all over again. So if you're a fan of rock music that kicks you in the gut and leaves you begging for more, then this reissue of MC5's "Kick Out The Jams" is an absolute must-have. Trust me, you won't be disappointed.
