Motorhead-The World Is Yours


Motorhead need no introductions. Lemmy and company have been churning out high speed rock and roll fueled heavy metal since the 70s. No other band was able to bridge the gap between punks and metal heads like they did. They have influenced more bands than you can name. Simply put heavy metal owes a huge debt to Motorhead. The World Is Yours is what you would expect from Lemmy and the boys. It's fast. It's loud. It mixes blues,punk,heavy rock and thrash.Simply put it's what metal should sound like.
As we all know Lemmy never seems to change or for the matter age. From the opening of "Born To Lose" to the closing "Bye Bye Bitch Bye Bye" Lemmy sings his blues. Religion, life on the road, sex and the glory of rock and roll. It's all here. And I for one would expect nothing less than that from Motorhead. Simply put another solid record from one of metal's all times greats. Buy this and play it loud. And if you have the chance check them out in concert. Having seen them live over the years I can tell you they always put on a killer show. Sure you'll lose your hearing for a few days (from Lemmy's bass alone) but you'll also get a chance to see true icons of metal.

I've not heard it yet, but if it's anything like their last 3 or 4, I won't dig it. While I love to see them live, I don't like their modern sound that much. 1916 is the last one that I liked.
