It all started in 1975 when Lemmy Kilmister decides to form a band called Bastard. When his manager informs him that a band by that name will never get a slot on "Top of the Pops," he changes it to Motorhead. Along the year Motorhead earned a reputation for being very loud, raw, dirty and all those good things heavy rock 'n' roll should be.During the late 1970s and early 1980s, Motorhead were at the peak of their form, releasing classic tracks such as Ace Of Spades, Stone Dead Forever and Bomber.Despite numerous personel changes over the years, Motorhead remain a force to be reckoned with live, an inspiration to a generation of thrash and speed metal bands and continue to record and release music (their most recent studio album was 2004's ‘Inferno’).
