 Yuriy P. - 2020年 12月 11日  In 2008, Motorhead, as always, without breaking tradition, released a classic album.
It is naive to expect from "Motors" some new words in the genre, style changes, etc. etc. Nevertheless, I have heard a lot of angry words about Lemmy's conservatism, many reviewers gave rather low marks for the lack of originality and innovation. Excuse me, but, as I said, "Motorhead" is not a group that surprises with novelty and originality. And this is actually wonderful. For the fourth decade, Mr. Kilmister remains true to himself, and that's wonderful.
Well, okay, it was a lyrical digression. Now, in fact, the review itself. The album carries that drive and rock'n'roll, for which the English trio love. It is impossible not to mention the lyrics - in my opinion, one of the best in "Motors" in principle. In general, since the beginning of the 90s, in my opinion, Lemmy's lyrics have become much more interesting and of high quality.
The sound is classic for Lemmy and company in the 2000s. I will not hide the fact that the albums of 79-91 years by sound I like much more than the albums released after the magnificent "1916". But the sound, in principle, is also good, the mastering is at the level, there is nothing to complain about, as they say.
The album is listened to in one breath, it impressed me as a complete disc, each song organically fits into the overall concept, the lyrics of each song, as always, tell us about wars, deaths, doltish life. Still, over the years it becomes more philosophical. I especially liked the lyrics of "One Short Life", "Back on Chain" and "The Thousand Names of God".
Of the 11 compositions I would like to highlight, apart from the named ones, "Buried Alive" - the most killer on the album, but worse, in my opinion, a little boring "Rock Out", as well as "Runaround Man" and "English Rose".
The verdict is an excellent album, a must-have for all Motorhead fans, and will be of interest to any lover of high-quality driving metal.
