Album Notes & Community Reviews

Serving as their ultimate studio swan song before their acrimonious collapse, the MC5 polished their revolutionary garage-rock fury with surprisingly lush, highly ambitious production. 'High Time' is an incredibly raw, fiercely energetic hard rock triumph, balancing intensely passionate, highly rebellious proto-punk anthems with wonderfully melodic, deeply conscious political swagger.
