Free Music Review: Cockroaches... twinkies... Lemmy Kilmister
Hit: 5 Stars

How can a band put out an album every two years for three decades and manage to make a winner every time? Sure, some Motorhead albums are better than others, but I can't think of a single one that stands out like a missing tooth in their canon. AC/DC has Blow Your Video, Machine Head has Supercharger, Metallica has their entire post Black Album career. Motorhead has none of those. Motorizer not only continues the awesome trend of consistent music, it proves to be a nice change of pace.

This isn't to say that Motorhead has changed their sound. I'm pretty sure that'll never happen (but with Motorhead, that's a good thing.) What's great about Motorizer is that it is that the album is seamless. There are no ballads, no covers, no blues songs. Every track is straightforward Motorhead goodness, each with a blend of metal, punk and good old fashioned rock. That's not to say I don't like their ballads or their blues tracks, but the format makes this album a very consistent listening experience. It manages to rock out on every track yet not sound repetitive.

The band members themselves are in top form, as always. Lemmy sounds exactly the same as he did in '77 and I can't think of any other vocalists that can say the same. His bass playing is phenomenal as well. Micky Dee is an insane drummer, and I'm not one that generally pays too much attention to drumming. But I've seen this band live and I've seen this guy pull off a ten minute solo and he's the real deal, definitely one of my favorite drummers. Phil Campbell is a great guitarist, infusing the blues into every bit of metal. All of my favorite Motorhead records feature him on strings.

In good punk-like fashion, Motorizer is short and to the point, with only one track that breaks 4 minutes. This also isn't a bad thing. The album doesn't overstay its welcome and by the time it ends, you're wanting more. Luckily you can just play it a second time.

The opening track, Runaround Man is awesome, in standard Motorhead opening track fashion. It'll pump you up for the rest of the record. All of the tracks are great, but other gems are When the Eagle Screams, One Short Life, Buried Alive and Heroes.

The weird thing is, the first couple of times I spun this album I wasn't feeling it. I think it's because it didn't have riffs that hooked me immediately like Bastards or Inferno. I was being impatient and skipping tracks, looking for something that stood out. Don't be like me and do the same thing. I put on the record again, driving this time which may have helped, and realized it kicks a**. It might not have a single like Ace of Spades, but Motorizer has quickly moved its way into my top 5 Motorhead albums, up there with We Are Motorhead and Bastards. Do yourself a favor and buy this instead of the new Metallica album. Motorhead will never die!


Motorizer Poster

True pop culture icons. Unquestioned household name recognition. Purveyors of some of the finest hard rock and heavy metal on the planet. This is Motörhead! Motörizer is Motörhead s 24th album and gives listeners the feeling that they have not yet reached the peak of their musical output. Like the band themselves have stated: A kick ass motherf#cking record definitely one of the wider ranged Motörhead records ever released . The album was produced by Cameron Webb and the recording took place at Sage & Sound and Foo Fighter Dave Grohl s 606 studios in Los Angeles. Motörhead is embarking on a full-scale US tour together with Heaven & Hell and Judas Priest, already being hailed as the tour of the year`.
