The MC5 were a lot like the Stooges. They both were hard rocking bands out of Michigan who each put out three seminal albums in the late 60's/early 70's. The Stooges are a bit more known these days. This is probably because Iggy went on to have a strong solo career to this day, whereas most of the MC5 are now dead. The music on their three albums, Kick Out the Jams, Back in the U.S.A., and High Time have great energy. I urge you to crank it loud when listening to Fred "Sonic" Smith and the boys. Here is a powerful track from their last album.
