 Motörhead has one song. Sometimes it's fast, sometimes it's slow, but it's basically unchanged after 33 years. Its sound is recognizable within seconds. The drums are driving and utilitarian. Guitars run 1950s boogie woogie, 1970s dinosaur rock, three-chord punk, and proto-heavy metal through cranked stacks. Leading the charge are Lemmy's trademark Rickenbacker bass-- distorted like a guitar, with everything turned all the way up-- and his equally gruff vocals. Lemmy's microphone stand is impossibly high, so that he looks like he's singing to the sky. Motörhead's song is an electric missile with a three-minute trajectory....full text |

There’s something reassuring about how Lemmy Kilmister and Motörhead just keep soldiering on. They’re one of the most predictable bands in rock ‘n’ roll history, but also one of the most reliable, still capable of putting together enjoyable albums, and always delivering one of the most punishing live shows you will ever witness.
The lion’s share of the credit, of course, goes to Lemmy, who lives the lifestyle like nobody else, a Jack and Coke always present along with a comely lady or two.

| Even if Motörhead had broken up around 1983 or 1984, they still would have gone down in history as one of the most influential metal outfits of all time. Motörhead, after all, was the first metal band to seriously incorporate punk; they wrote the book on thrash metal and speed metal in the late '70s and early '80s, paving the way for Slayer, Metallica, Venom, Megadeth, Testament, Anthrax, Death, Exodus, and countless others. But Motörhead, of course, didn't break up in 1983 or 1984, and they were still cranking out quality albums in the late 2000s. Lemmy Kilmister (who turned 62 in 2007) shows no signs of slowing down on 2008's Motorizer, which Cameron Webb produced at Dave Grohl's 606 Studios in Los Angeles. Despite the fact that Webb has worked with a lot of alt rock and alt metal artists (including Limp Bizkit, Orgy, Godsmack, Buckcherry, Lit, Ben Folds, and Monster Magnet) and produced this 39-minute CD in a studio that is owned by a member of the Foo Fighters and ex-member of Nirvana, Motorizer makes no effort to be alternative-sounding....full text |
