Motorhead Complete Recording New Album

Legendary hard rock band Motorhead has finished recording its new album, entitled "Motörize", due before the end of the year via SPV Records. The follow-up to 2006's "Kiss of Death" was recorded at Foo Fighters frontman/ex-Nirvana drummer Dave Grohl's Studio 606 in Northridge, California.

"Kiss of Death" entered the national album charts in the following countries: Germany: #4, Norway: #9, Sweden: #13, Austria: #20, Switzerland: #26, U.K.: #45, Denmark: #53. The CD was recorded at the Paramount studios in Los Angeles with Cameron Webb, who also worked with the group on 2004's "Inferno". The album includes guest appearances by POISON guitarist C.C. Deville and Alice In Chains bassist Mike Inez.

As previously reported, the life and career of Motörhead frontman Lemmy Kilmister is being celebrated in a new documentary, tentatively titled "Lemmy" and slated for release in 2009.

The film promises fans more access than ever before to Kilmister's life, and includes interviews with past and present bandmates and such peers/admirers as Slash, Dave Grohl, The Clash's Mick Jones, Alice Cooper, Steve Vai and wrestling superstar Triple H.

Directors/producers Greg Olliver and Wes Orshoski (both of whom have contributed to Billboard) are shooting the film on a combination of HD video and super 16 mm film. Other giants from the world of metal and hard rock will appear in the film as well, with details to be announced. "We haven't heard the word 'no' yet after any interview request," Olliver says.

Watch a "teaser" for the movie at this location.

Thanks for the report to Blabbermouth.net.

Motorhead keep on chugging albums out, one every two years. And they don't feel rushed at all. Thats a damned achievement.

[postmortem2006]

Thats because Motorhead are the best band in the world with God as their frontman.

[Engel22]

this is gonna kick some serious ass. Lemmy's always been a pretty fast moving song writer so it doesnt shock me that much they did this all so quickly.

[ThunderPX]

I like how the front page pic of Motorhead looks a lot like that guy from Fall Out Boy.

[Glam-Hammer]

They're probably the best live band around IMO.

Keep on truckin' Lemmy

[Bati]

Jesus Christ, it´s like Lemmy has a medical condition that forces him to KEEP ROCKING LIKE A MOTHERFUCKER!!!

Seriosly, all the other bands from the 70´s have slowed down, which is perfectly natural, of course. But Motorhead just keeps going...

[demiphoenix]

Motorizer is the worst album name ever...
and I wouldn't have it any other way from Motorhead!

[BonezShaker]

LEMMY IS GOD !!!

[Madzää]

Can't wait for the new album!

[-MetalUpYourAss]

Believe it or not, but I actually knew I'd find you saying that.

[Cobalt Blue]

their last two albums kicked some serious ass, i'm pretty excited for this one.

[silent caution]

of course they wrote it in like a month, it all sounds the same as everything else they did...but i am looking forward to getting it when it comes out

[Neo Evil11]

LegionsOfDeath :
marlboro go back to listening to Pearl Jam and gtfo.

i love how Motorheads new album took a few months to write and record and itll still probably blow away Metallicas new album haha

don't think so, we finally get a good metallica album! (if not I am so going to a FOB concert, than I have lost faith in the metal scene)

aside from the bowel twisting grammar you're an idiot. metallica is the ass bottom of the metal scene, and if you base all metal on them you're gonna be disappointed for a long time

[Skuzzmo]

Going to worship at the church of Lemmy in 8 days!!!!

Checked.

[DevilsDance76]

"Who would win in a fight Lemmy or God?
Trick question LEMMY IS GOD!"

Hahaha love that line

I would never say Metallica is the ass bottom of the metal scene.

There are many more bands from todays market of performers who are much more worthy of that title

[Machine Gun Cat]

this is such a crack up
one day on UG " FOB might be thinking of making a new album"
next " MOTORHEAD complete a new album "

[not_dead_enough]

Awesome!!!

[motorbreath_445]

man, i can't wait to see motorhead with judas priest this summer, it's gonna ****in rock

[kramer4ever]

priest sucks. everything sounds the same...motorhead on the other hand...will always rule.

[ozzynator]

7 months on the road 2 months in the studio every year, thats Motorhead, a pure badass rock n roll Machine that will never stop until we all go ****ing deff. The greatest band ever.
Kiss of Death kicked ass, Motorize will be better cuz just like wine , Motorhead keeps getting better with age \m/o.o\m/

[deadlyMETAL]

Steve Vai

Is he an admirer or a peer?

Motorhead = PWN.

[recliner33]

Lemmy is one of the best guys in rock in my opinion. He hardly ever takes breaks from the music and he stays true to his guns. Most rockstars that began when Lemmy did mellowed out later on or took major breaks and stuff, not Lemmy. I love motorhead but I think I like his work in hawkwind even more. Hawkwind is one of my favourite bands but they were at the top of their game when Lemmy was a member.

[zquizo4life]

MOTOHEAD = The hardest working band!! LEMMY = METAL GOD!! New Motorhead CD = MAYOR KICK ASS FROM OLD DUDES!! new metallica cd = i will keep you informed. ja,ja,ja,ja keep dreaming!!

[Leonheart]

Good to see they're still going. They're still sick.

That's just sad.

Psyched for this new album.

[Doctorfeelgood2]

im seeing them with judas priest, heaven and hell and testament. should be bad ass!
ROB HALFORD
DIO
AND LEMMY!
all i one night? shit im gonna die haha

[GarryBoy]

He's no Keith Richards!!

They just keep chugging out the same old tired riffs. No variation at all.

He's a legend and a character no doubt but that often over shadows that his music is a bit shabby at times to say the least

[Zanoa17]

cocain is definatly the only thing keeping keith alive lol

other then that the new motorhead cd should kick so much ass

[FooCards]

[HolySmoke]

[ss311]

It's the amphetamines!

Motörhead above all! ****ing legends

I love Motorhead and Priest equally, but Priest has a lot more variation than The Head. Motorhead basically stick to the same progressions and riffs. I mean, Iron Fist and Ace of Spades are basically the same song.

But they've found a sound that works for them; and I'll still be kneeling at their mighty metal throne if they stick with it for another twenty years.

[MXFNCK]

awesome. gonna see em next sunday for like the 235235th time, still amazing

[MooshMooshMarc]

if its anything like kiss of death, it'll be amazing
