Description
This debut album from Motorhead was cut over a few speed-driven days at Escape Studio, and it shows. From the opening bass roar of the eponymous title track it is non stop, relentless, churning, brain damaging, heavy rock’n’roll. This is no ponderous heavy metal band fronted by some poodle-headed castrato – no this is the real deal, down dirty and greasy and with its boots firmly rooted in rock’n’roll. Ian ‘Lemmy’ Kilmister had the right background to finally create Motorhead in 1975. Brought up on rock’n’roll in the 50s he had been a member of the Shel Talmy-produced beat group the Rockin’ Vicars, had a stint as roadie for Jimi Hendrix and was then in Roundhouse favourites Sam Gopal’s Dream in 1969, before joining the ultimate psychedelic weirdos Hawkwind.
