Motor City Breakout: The Untold Story of Music in Detroit

Motor City Breakout: The Untold Story of Music in Detroit

Brian McCollum
0/5 ( ratings)
The Motor City has a story to tell. It's wild. Colorful. Over the top. And loud. It's the story of Detroit rock music, one of the city's most recognized and venerated art forms. Motor City Breakout is the first book to chronicle this living history, in the voices of those who made the sounds and those who consume them with near spiritual devotion. For decades, Detroit has been an enormously significant hotbed of raw musical energy. This is perhaps the only place in the world where a pioneering punk band like MC5 fits comfortably next to a hip-hop star like Eminem on the musical family tree. That's because both have been stamped with the Motor City brand: primal, gritty, bombastic. It's a distinctive standard, and one that's been vastly influential.
