E Pluribus Funk

Grand Funk Railroad

Heavy, fuzzed-out power trio rock meeting unexpected orchestral ambition. A gritty, politically charged 1971 document of American unrest and blue-collar soul.

It's the one where the bass sounds like a chainsaw and they actually have something to say about the war.

A gritty and urgent blend of blue-collar defiance and unexpected symphonic melancholy.

Moments Worth Waiting For
