Motörhead

20th August 2008

On 1st September, iconic rock’n’roll band Motörhead release their 24th album, “Motörizer” through SPV.

Led by legendary rock animal, Lemmy Kilmister, Motörhead’s latest offering is full of surprises while still remaining true to their metal roots. ‘Motörizer’ delivers 11 brand new and varied tracks, ready to rock the house and has been succinctly described by drummer, Mikkey Dee as, “A kick-ass motherf***ing record – definitely one of the wider ranging Motörhead records ever released”, while Lemmy said “This is yet another great album from me and the chaps. I think you should get 3 copies each. Buy it and avoid embarrassment later'.

The album was produced by Cameron Webb (who also produced Motörhead’s Kiss of Death and Inferno).

Motörhead are Lemmy Kilmister (vocals & bass); Phil Campbell (guitar) & Mikkey Dee (drums). They have been uncompromisingly rocking for the last 33 years, with Lemmy at the helm for the duration. In recent years, Lemmy has achieved the status of cultural icon, epitomising remorseless, blistering, hard-living rock’n’roll at its best.

At this year’s Mojo Awards, Motörhead were presented with the Mojo Hero award. Editor-in-chief Phil Alexander said: "Lemmy and Motörhead have proved time and again what a unique force they are. They've influenced everyone from Metallica to Primal Scream. There's simply no better way to go deaf than by listening to Motörhead."

In November, Motorhead will hit the road with Saxon and Danko Jones for a 15-date UK tour. Brace yourselves!
