Heavy metal / hard rock
The Good
"Runaround Man" wastes no time in bringing the power and fury.
Lemmy's bass is pumping, Mikkey Dee's drums are pounding, and Phil Campbell's
guitar
is on fire. "Teach You How to Sing the Blues" delivers Lemmy's
signature growling vocals. Let's face it, when you hear them, you know
it's metal.
The track barrels along to a driving chugga-chugga riff. Finally, my favorite
college phrase has been immortalized in a Motorhead song. Although the
title of the song is "Rock Out," one of the lines in the chorus
is 'rock out with your c**k out.' "Buried Alive" is just plain
brutal. "English
Rose"
delves into the good and bad aspects of a great woman. Motorhead go anthemic
on "Heroes." The energy kicks back up with the frantic paced "Time
is Right."
The Bad
Lemmy, you have to give us more than 41 minutes.
The Verdict
If Motorhead is anything, it's consist ant. I think Motorizer is their 700th
album or something, and it's still just as punishing and full of metal
energy
that no other band can match. When you think of heavy metal, you should
be thinking of Motorhead.
