And so it begins, what I like to think of as the second Motorhead era, all remnants of the past (besides Lemmy) have left the band; no Philthy, no Fast Eddie, and no Brian Robertson. Philthy Animal Taylor being replaced by ex-Saxon stickman Pete Gill, and Brian 'Robo' Robertson being replaced by 2 guitarists; Michael "Würzel" Burston and the current guitarist Phil Campbell (this also marks the begining of the 5 album dual-guitar era of Motorhead). This album shows for the first time that Lemmy is able to write a good album with none of the original members.

Year was 1990. Buddy and I rented a car near the Navy Base. It had a tape deck, so we stopped by a music store and he bought this tape. Over the course of our weekend Rent-A-Wreck adventures, he altered the lyrics of the title track to "I am the one, <insert bitter's real name here> son, the outstretched gaping hand...my image is of agony, my servants rape the land."

This beer's for you, Lemmy. (with a toast to Worsham, should he ever randomly stumble on this site.)

Yep, "Claw" and "Mean Machine" are the 2 tracks missing from the tracklist. lol

This is one of the best Motorhead albums IMO. "Deaf Forever" and "Mean Machine" are my faves from it though.

Fucking great album to rock out to, and that title track is monstrous. Not their heaviest album, but certainly one of their best in terms of songwriting\m/

The lyrics to the title track are just so fucking good (as is the music). Probably the best Motorhead album in my opinion

I agree with Alex.

One of the finest records ever produce by Motorhead. Still listen on my pad. Post-Lemmy passing, this record got more special.

A slight improvement with the overall sound on this one over their previous album, this has a solid production with decent sound quality, the drums sound great, and there is lots of speed and aggression, with some cool riffs as is expected from Motörhead.

There are a few songs that I didn't care too much for, but there are also alot of quality one's too, my favourites being "Deaf Forever", "Mean Machine", and one of my all time favourite Motörhead songs "O̲rgasm̲atron".
The album cover is slso a great one, so too the album title.

This is one of my favourite Motörhead albums, I think the songwriting improved here noticeably without losing all the dirty rock 'n' roll charm of the earlier records. The title song is a pure classic, I especially love the lyrics, they're some of the best Lemmy has ever written.The production is pretty muddy, which is why I can't give this a full 10.

As solid as ever with some outstandig track as the title and especially Riding with the driver!

P.S.: Had to correct my vote from 8 to 9. Just hits on this record.

Faves: All - more outstanding: Nothing Up My Sleeve, Claw, Ridin´With The Driver and the title.
