Style: tumultuous roaring heavy speed metal
the defining speed metal record has exploded with unparalleled fury back in 1980: sharp intense guitar riffs and straightforward rhythmics underpin monumental vocalist/bassist Lemmy, whose blooded-throat yet honest roar enhances the trio's bludgeoning aggression, while snarling attitude and memorable choruses forever guarantee the Englishmen an immense success, embodying a no-nonsense, hard-hitting ethos that resonated deeply with fans and musicians alike; mind-numbingly basic and deafeningly loud, Motörhead exemplified hard rock's outlaw chic with these twelve cuts, influencing a generation of bands to push the envelope in terms of aggression, speed, and lyrical defiance, eventually expanding to the level of immortality!; deluxe four panel double digipak edition in transparent slipcase comes with photo archive and Malcolm Dome's liner notes in the booklet, plus fifteen bonus tracks on disc two - eleven of them are alternate versions of album material, one song is single's B side, and three more were performed live at BBC studio
