Bare gjør det!
Motörhead, bademagi
Ble litt fjasete overskrift, men den sikter til trioens kommende album, ‘Bad Magic’.
Det er Morten Bakke som tipser Heavymetal.no om dette, datoen for release er 28. august, og selskapet som står bak er UDR Music/Motörhead Records.
Samtidig som skiva kommer, feirer jo bandet sitt 40-årsjubileum, det fordrer jo at man feirer som et band skal; på veien. En formidabel Europaturne står på trappene, her får vi besøk 3. desember. Sjekk artikkel på konserten her.
Sakset fra presseskriv: «Fylt til bristepunktet med bredbeint attityde, framtidsrettede tæl, samt illsinte rytmer og riff som vil rundjule trommehinnene fram til betingelsesløs overgivelse, er Bad Magic et velrettet spark i skrevet på enhver som våget å tro noe annet. Om disse menneskene i det hele tatt eksisterer vil de gjøre lurt i å gå til anskaffelse av ett par fete øreplugger, falle på kne og be til høyere makter, for stor-rigg-sprengern Thunder And Lightning og spesielt ø-r-e-d-ø-v-e-n-d-e Teach‘Em How To Bleed, er et utvetydig bevis på at Motörhead er like sterke, slemme, høylytte, ubarmhjertige, kompromissløse og forbanna heavy som alltid.»
Her er et klipp fra den offisielle pressemeldingen: «Drawing on their own vast catalogue of road-warrior freewheeling rock’n’roll spirit, Bad Magic also strides confidently into some of the earlier attitudes of Motörmusic. Written and recorded in the studio together, for the first time in the Kilmister/Campbell/Dee era, the more live approach to creating Bad Magic has obviously paid dividends in this regard. There is the driving malevolence of Choking On Your Screams, with Lemmy in magnificently omnipotent vocal mood, Electricity carries a hefty chunk of punk attitude married with some of Phil Campbell’s best lead work in years, while Shoot Out All of Your Lights is all devilish, greasy biker-borne-screw-you-and yours, Mikkey Dee’s tribal drums pounding out a great path for more Kilmister proclamations. The boys even enjoyed a guest appearance from Queen’s Brian May on The Devil, adding a scintillating solo on this thunderous Motörstomper.
Produced at NRG Studios with long-time producer Cameron Webb, Bad Magic came together after a couple of years which saw Motörhead enjoy their most successful international era in over two decades off the back of their last release Aftershock. Lemmy also finally decided to face the fact he is flesh, blood and mortal like all of us, adjusting his lifestyle to kick the ass of health-issues and re-emerging stronger, leaner and meaner than ever. His own personal performances on Bad Magic rank as some of the most wide-ranging and unique he has delivered in years, and on the ballad Until The End, Lemmy opens up with equal levels explanation and intent on the simple but important matters which life conjures for us all. Add to all of this a wonderfully executed, gritty delivery of The Rolling Stones classic Sympathy For The Devil, and it will be clear to anyone with a pair of ears that Bad Magic is Motörhead’s finest work in over two decades.
