Motörhead - Bomber 27/10/1979

Alright, let's see if I can actually get both out today...

First up we've got complete whiplash from Sleep Token to Motörhead! Started in 1975 by Lemmy Kilmister after getting kicked out of Hawkwind, Motörhead was intended to be loud, fast, "speedfreak rock 'n' roll. So loud, if we moved next door, your lawn will die." And it was glorious! 

With the classic lineup of Lemmy, Phil 'Philthy Animal' Taylor and "Fast" Eddie Clarke, they put out hits like Overkill, Killed By Death and, their biggest hit, Ace Of Spades. Alongside these were other greats, Bomber, for example. And some quality covers like God Save The Queen and Enter Sandman. 

Decided to draw a representation of the band's mascot, Snaggletooth as some sort of biker-barbarian, ogre... thing. Think it worked. It would have been Lemmy, but I recently did something featuring him, so wanted to change things up.

Friday, July 5: Motörhead, "Talking Head"

R.I.P. Ian Fraser "Lemmy" Kilmister (1945-2015), "Fast Eddie Clarke (1950-2018), Phil "Philthy Animal" Taylor (1954-2015)

Not long into "Talking Head," Lemmy hilariously croaked “Don’t touch that dial!!!” and the tune just strutted from there.  The penultimate track on Bomber carried on with the snarling swagger that defined Motörhead in the late ‘70s, and while it wasn’t as overtly heavy as what would soon come, it was still unwashed and completely unique to these three madmen.  Fast Eddie smoked out bluesy licks over Lemmy’s clacking Rickenbacker while Philthy Phil barely kept himself from going full muppet, and Lemmy croaked out his common-sense wisdom with a hysterical mix of bemusement and outrage, and these were all the fundamental attributes that made Motörhead one of the greats.

RELEASED 45 YEARS AGO ON THIS DAY -- BOMBING THEIR WAY WITH PROTO-THRASH FURY.

PIC(S) INFO: Mega spotlight on "Bomber," the third studio album by English rock and roll band MOTÖRHEAD. It was released domestically in the UK on October 12, 1979 by Bronze Records, their second with the label.

Not gonna lie, this is probably my all-time favorite Motörmusic album ever made as I had all but burnt out "Overkill," and hadn't really picked up on "Ace of Spades" yet at the time. Some say it is a "weaker" album as certain songs are fairly slower than in their other releases, but maybe that's exactly why it hits me differently. I @¢!*#%$& love this album to death, and personal favorites include: "Sweet Revenge," "Sharpshooter," "Stone Dead Forever," "All the Aces," "Step Down," and that killer title track, of course.

Motörhead-STONE DEAD FOREVER

Motörhead 'Bomber' Released October 27, 1979

[loiterer87]

Still late, so here's yesterday's prompt, Girlschool. An all-female metal band who came about in 1978.

Most famous for playing alongside Motörhead, sharing their manager, Doug Smith and being just as wild. They even record an ep with them while Motörhead's drummer, Phil, recovered from an injury which prevented him from playing. Included on it was a cover of Motörhead's song 'Bomber' which is ace! They're still going strong today. 

So for this one I decided to play a little on that Motörhead connection. I don't know nearly enough about them, so I was struggling to think of owt. And in the end, I thought why not make a friend for the Snaggletooth design I did?
