In the special edition of the MC5’s new album, Heavy Lifting, Matt Cameron plays on various tracks recorded live during the band’s 2018 tour.
Not only that, Cameron also appears in the new Skin Yard box set, Select, curated by co-founders Daniel House and Jack Endino. The box set can be ordered at this link: skin-yard.com/skinyardselect
Below you can listen California, the recently unearthed/unreleased first song on the collection that was recorded for the first Skin Yard record, but never made it on, with Matt Cameron on drums. This will only be available on Skin Yard Select (Ltd. Ed./Colored vinyl).
