MOTÖRHEAD

The fifth European re-release of the eighth full-length studio album by legendary British Heavy/Speed Metal/Hard Rock band.
"Orgasmatron" (along with "No Remorse) got Motörhead back on track after the critically acclaimed but commercially unsuccessful 1983 album "Another Perfect Day". On the surface, Motörhead appear to be trying something new with "Orgasmatron", bringing in producer Bill Laswell to put a slightly different slant on their signature sound. Laswell does beef up the mix with added sonic detail, which works to particularly good effect on the title track - the densely layered production helps transform the song and its simple riff into a chugging psychedelic noise-fest. Elsewhere, the production sometimes has the effect of muting the band's energy, sounding oddly processed and lacking the raw bite of past work (which foreshadows their decline over the next few years). It doesn't help that the songwriting is somewhat inconsistent, with "Deaf Forever" and "Built for Speed" standing out among a batch of tunes that sometimes sound as though Motörhead were trying a little too self-consciously to do what people expected from a Motörhead album. Still, in Motörhead's case, that distinction is easily lost, so even if "Orgasmatron" is somewhat erratic, most fans will find a hidden favorite or two. 
The album's working title was "Ridin' With The Driver" and later changed to "Orgasmatron"; it was too late for Joe Petagno to change the cover art and the train design was used.
It is the only full Motörhead album to feature Pete Gill on the drums, although he also played on the four new tracks recorded for the 1984 "No Remorse" compilation album.
The song "Orgasmatron" was re-recorded in 2000 and was available as an Internet download under the name "Orgasmatron 2000". It was later included on the band's 2003 five-disc box-set "Stone Deaf Forever!".
"Orgasmatron" album reached number 21 in the UK charts. In 2005, it was ranked number 313 in Rock Hard Magazine's book of "The 500 Greatest Rock & Metal Albums of All Time".

The fourth re-release of the ninth full-length album by the legendary British Heavy/Speed Metal band.
Though they are usually pegged as Heavy Metal, Motörhead are actually a Rock & Roll band in the purest sense. And this aptly titled release reminds you that despite their outrageous speed and ear-shattering distortion, Motörhead tunes have much more in common with Chuck Berry than Black Sabbath.
Rock 'n' Roll renewed commercial hope for Motörhead in the States with Lemmy and company moving to Los Angeles. The fans in the States appeared willing to see this band live and buy their albums whereas Britain is criticized as having lost interest in the band.
With the returned original drummer Philthy Taylor the guys press the pedal to the Metal right at the beginning. The title song easily thrashes your brains out. Turned into a slavering beast, the following tracks sound even better. And they have quite something in them. The snottily thrashed out "Eat The Rich", which also was released as a maxi-single, more than convinces through an ultra fat lead guitar and the super great lyrics of Lemmy. Also the rest of the songs provide you with a mega fat grin.
It was the first appearance of band's four-piece line-up of: Lemmy, Phil "Philthy Animal" Taylor, Würzel and Phil Campbell, which lasted from 1987 until 1992.
There is a hidden track (01:02) before "The Wolf" where Monty Python legend Michael Palin provides some narration. Also re-edition includes two bonus tracks.
Total musthave for every Metalhead in the world!!

The thirteenth full-length album by the legendary British Heavy Metal band.
Metal bands are supposed to lose their energy and power as they age, but Motörhead stubbornly refused to obey that rule, maintaining their string of tough, enjoyable albums into the mid-'90s. Sacrifice, the band's 1995 effort, doesn't offer anything new, nor does it display a newfound subtlety. It's just straight-ahead, breakneck fast, ear-shatteringly loud Motörhead, with buzzing guitars, near-martial rhythms, and surprisingly catchy hooks!
It is the second and last album to feature the four-man lineup of Lemmy, Phil "Wizzö" Campbell, Würzel, and Mikkey Dee, as Würzel left the band at the end of recording this album.
The title track was used in the movie “Tromeo and Juliet”, a film in which Lemmy appears.
It's a thoroughly engaging and entertaining record from one of the most consistent Metal bands in history!!

The tenth DVD by the legendary British Heavy/Speed Metal/Hard Rock band.
This live was filmed at the Philipshalle, Düsseldorf, Germany, December 7, 2004, to commemorate the band's 30th anniversary.
30 years of Motörhead… and absolutely not quiet in any way! If you do not believe, watch "Stage Fright" - and get a master class from Lemmy & Co.!
Although it was technically filmed one year too early, the discreetly double entendre-named "Stage Fright" DVD is meant to commemorate Motörhead's 30th anniversary (1975-2005), and does so with rather impressive results. The concert itself is presented in unimpeachable visual and audio quality (multi-angle cameras, DTS 96/24, Dolby 5.1, and AC3 stereo sound), and captures Motörhead turning in a reliably top-notch performance from what was widely held to be the band's finest touring cycle in years - not only because it was in support of a surprisingly memorable studio effort (2004's "Inferno", introducing the memorable "Killers" and the brilliant acoustic guitar and harmonica breakdown "Whorehouse Blues"), but for reviving a few rarely played old classics ("Shoot You in the Back", "Over the Top", "Dancing on your Grave") amidst the usual on-stage warhorses, both welcome and necessary ("Killed by Death", "Ace of Spades", "Overkill") and inexplicably enduring ("Dr. Rock", "Metropolis", "No Class" - all in serious need of retirement). Add to this an entertainingly crass and often self-demolishing commentary track provided by the ever lovable (if increasingly mummified - he is 60, you know!) Lemmy Kilmister and merry henchmen Phil Campbell and Mikkey Dee (incidentally, celebrating ten years as the most stable lineup Motörhead has ever had), and you may also be looking at a live concert first!
Disc One features the band's concert in Düsseldorf, Germany and the bonus (DVD-Check with Motörhead, Exclusive Audio Commentary and Multiangle Feature).
Disc Two includes interviews with Lemmy, Phil Campbell and drummer Mikkey Dee, as well as the road crew, who talk about life on tour. Viewers get a rare chance to watch the roadies doing their work, listen in to the soundcheck, meet the band's cook and accompany their entourage on the road. There is also an L.A. special, fans' comments and other special features. The icing on the cake is the DVD-Rom part with “Overkill” High Definition Track, Windows Media HD, the "Life's a Bitch" realtone for your mobile, Motörhead wallpaper for your PC and mobile, photos from the WrestleMania show in Los Angeles, and an extensive discography!
All in all, "Stage Fright" offers over four hours of playing time!!

A 35th Anniversary Collection purposely avoids the predictability of the chronological track-listing typical of so many other collections and presents a shuffle-ready program of the best of Motörhead's first ten years. From the irrepressible "Ace of Spades", their incarnation with ex-Thin Lizzy guitarist Brian Robertson for "Shine" and "I Got Mine" to the double-punch of "Overkill" and "Bomber" and the chart-scaling collaboration with those Rock chicks Girlschool for "Please Don't Touch"!
Listening to these songs is rather like walking your ears through a chamber of Rock iconography, showcasing priceless artifacts which make-up that vital first decade in the evolution of heavy British music!!
