Album Notes & Community Reviews

True to its straightforward title, this album captures Mot枚rhead returning to their filthy, blues-driven roots after a brief period of lineup experimentation. Lemmy Kilmister's iconic, gravelly roar and distorted bass anchor a collection of fast, fiercely aggressive heavy metal anthems about rebellion, touring, and excess. It is a remarkably raw, energetic, and unapologetic display of hard rock power.
