Mic City Sons is the third and final album by American indie rock band Heatmiser, released on October 29, 1996, through record label Caroline.
[citation needed] The title of the album is taken from a line in the ninth track, "Pop in G": "Mic city sons seem to dumb everything down".
On the album's style, Michael Frey of AllMusic noted "a decidedly more pop feel than its predecessors".
[2] Michael Frey of AllMusic called the album "an outstanding collection of diverse and invigorating tracks".
He finished by saying "Despite the success Heatmiser's members have achieved since their disbanding, it's unfortunate that this collective decided to split up just when they had reached such a creative peak.
