Motorhead - The World Is Yours
Released by: UDR
Released on: 2/8/2011
Lemmy, at 65, is now what the British call a “pensioner†- but he sure as hell is not ready for any retirement home. He's mad as hell and full of piss and vinegar and not all that thrilled with mankind in general.
Thank God.
While many refuse to acknowledge the clear merits of MOTORHEAD's post-Fast Eddie Clarke career the fact remains that today, the Head still deliver albums that range from good… to great.
“The World Is Yours†is on the upper end of the scale, second only to the amazing “Inferno†from 2004. But while “Inferno†mined a thrashy and slightly vicious vein, “The World Is Yours†has the distinct flavor of turbo-charged boogie mixed with some old-fashioned rock 'n' roll. If Chuck Berry went “metal†its quite possible that “Rock 'n' Roll Music†from this album would be the result.
One of this record's great strengths is the variety on display. “Brotherhood Of Man†with its grinding riff and doomy aura is a worthy companion piece to “Orgasmatron†and “Bye Bye Bitch Bye Bye†sounds like Eddie Cochran mainlining Red Bull. Lemmy's bass is prominently mixed right up with the guitar and it
sounds wonderful. And a quick note of praise for guitarist Phil Campbell and drummer Mikkey Dee who are both stellar musicians. This is a trio that runs like a well-oiled machine.
MOTORHEAD continue to deliver and this album is the proof. The American limited edition version comes with a bonus dvd with some live tracks from Germany's Wacken festival in 2006. Video and audio quality are good.Posting comments is disabled.

FLOTSAM AND JETSAM have been at this since the early 1980s and are probably best remembered for giving bassist Jason Newstead to METALLICA. Their first two records - Doomsday For The Deceiver and No Place For Disgrace are considered classics of the thrash metal genre but like many other acts that started strong on an indie label and wound up on a major label during the thrash signing boom ...-

Purchase From Amazon Recorded in Bulgaria - where life is cheap! Hot on the heels of his utterly bizarre We Are One collaboration (also reviewed here at RSP!), everyone's favorite Teutonic Metal ogre Herr Udo Dirkschneider returns with that ubiquitous staple - the live album. For a while now it has been common practice for legacy acts, or pretty much any band with a history over 20 years long, to release a live album...-

EXPLODING!†Germany's WIZARD have been at this since 1991 and at this point have pretty much nailed this “true metal†thing down to a science. This, the band's 12th full length offers very little in the way of musical surprises and appears to be purposefully designed that way. WIZARD are catering to a very specific demographic - aficionados of gloriously irony-free...

Then it was on.
I came away from the gig happy, having seen a band I've admired for a long time live. I would gladly go see them again! Hopefully Lemmy is still able to tour for a while!
