094: Motorhead

“We’re MOTORHEAD and we play rock ‘n’ roll…” -Lemmy Kilmister.

It has been said that if you go to the Rainbow Bar & Grill in West Hollywood, sit down at the bar, and order a Jack & Coke, the spirit of LEMMY KILMISTER will manifest as a cloud of cigarette smoke and tell you to get out of “his spot”.

For over 4 decades, MOTORHEAD pummeled fans with their abrasive, uncompromising brand of metal fueled by speed, attitude, and vice, firmly securing their place at the base of the foundation that helped shape the burgeoning New Wave of British Heavy Metal movement.

“…and don’t forget the joker.” -Ace of Spades

Time to pour yourself a Jack & Coke, assemble whatever relaxers you have that pairs well with a Jack & Coke, ante up for Lars’ gum app and JOIN US as we sample a tiny swath of the vast back catalog of the mighty and powerful MOTORHEAD (warts & all).
