Motorizer is Motorhead's 24th album. That's a truly remarkable feat. What else is remarkable is that at age 62, Lemmy is going as strong as ever. Guitarist Phil Campbell has been with the band since 1984, and his catchy riffs and blazing solos are the backbone of the Motorhead sound.
The days of radio hits like "Ace Of Spades" or "Eat The Rich" are long gone, but Motorizer has anthems like "Rock Out" and "Back On The Chain" that are as memorable and catchy as any of their singles. It's refreshing to hear a group that's been around so long playing with so much energy and passion, and sounding like they're having a blast doing it.
The thing about groups like Motorhead is know exactly what you're going to get. They'll deliver songs that are loud, fast, sleazy and packed with hooks. That's exactly what you'll get here, and you can add Motorizer to the long line of kick ass Motorhead CDs.
