Motorhead plan release of new album
Well it looks like this summer’s list of “Albums To Definitely Listen To” just got a little bit longer today. Entertainment website Pop-Rock Candy Mountain recently conducted an interview with Motorhead frontman/bassist Lemmy Kilmister. Not only is Lemmy God, he’s pretty psyched about the new album:
Pop-Rock Candy Mountain: How’s the new album coming?
Lemmy: We have all of the tracks done. It’s just vocals and guitars now, really.
Pop-Rock Candy Mountain: With this being your 20th album, was a challenge to find inspiration? How did you keep it fresh?
Lemmy: Not really, we just do what we always do. We’ve got it down to a fine art now, you know? We know how to do that now.
Pop-Rock Candy Mountain: You recorded parts of the album at Dave Grohl’s studio?
Lemmy: Just the drums were done up there. The rest of we did in L.A.
Pop-Rock Candy Mountain: Who produced it?
Lemmy: Cameron Webb. The same as who did the last two.
With Metallica’s new release coming soon, AC/DC’s newest release in almost ten years and Judas Priest’s concept Nostradamus coming out in just a few days, Motorhead’s newest album joins the ranks of heavy metal cuts to definitely pick up this summer. It’s a bomber!
