Inferno

Product Information

Lemmy sings like he has always sung and – only the best is good enough – he delivers the second voice as well. This created an issue during recording and when Webb complained to manager Todd Singerman, he said, "dude, your ears are different. The CD follows the standard Motorhead format by adding a few songs here and there that slow the tempo and break the atmosphere created by the constant wailing guitar and raspy vocals but not to the point that the mood of the album departs from riotous and raucous, but just enough to give the listener a pause and anticipate the next full on audio assault. The songs themselves also seem to be more up tempo than usual as the pummeling “Terminal Show” and “Fight!

Terminal Show” ( with accompanying guitars by Steve Vai) and “In the Name of Tragedy” could easily have become the songs most associated with this band if they were on earlier albums instead of “Ace of Spades”. The blues influence does show through a bit more than on past releases but that actually adds to the album, giving it more depth than would possibly be expected on a Motorhead release. and yet again another song instantly identifiable as Motorhead, and throw in another simple-but-oh-so-effective thrash riff. Dee explained his switch from drums: "I've been playing guitar all my life a little bit, because guitars have always been around, so it's nothing spectacular in my eyes. Inferno" became Motörhead's heaviest album in years, although the album's final song "Whorehouse Blues" was something of an exception with its country blues style and Lemmy on harmonica.Fight", "The Terminal Show", "Killers" and "In The Name Of Tragedy" are especially ass-whomping tracks on a seriously murderous album.

if they can crank out the filler material, and even the filler material is pretty fucken good, more power to 'em. Interview with Mikkey Dee by Artyom Golew – became cover story in Sep 2006 issue of Russian Alive magazine". The rest of the album truly moves at breakneck speeds and overshadows many of Motorheads past accomplishments.They're not QUITE the one-two-three punch of the opening trilogy (which may be the best opening trilogy of any Motorhead studio album! About Joe Petagno – interview section with Joe Petagno, bonus DVD with Inferno 30th Anniversary edition SPV69748. Already the voluminous up-tempo opener “Terminal Show” leaves no doubt that the album gives no reason for concern in terms of the mix. In the Name of Tragedy” is a bit darker, but it also profits from a fantastic flow, a memorable chorus and its simple construction that invites you to bang your head.

you'd think it makes no sense, but here it is another tribute to the absolute BRILLIANCE of Lemmy and pals. The album ends with “Whorehouse Blues”, a touching song about life and sex that would sound more fitting on a Johnny Cash CD.The first of many of the bands albums to be produced by Cameron Webb, Inferno became Motörhead’s heaviest album in years. not fucken Shania Twain, I mean real tr00 country, with shootin' men in Reno (just to watch them die).

But I guess that no Motörhead tune ever did this after “Ace of Spades” – and this is no problem at all, because this band offered other values: permanent reliability, dirty humor, powerful chords. one would be tempted to think of Motorhead falling behind the bandwagon - releasing something that sounds 1986, when they've been releasing stuff that sounds 1986 since oh about 1979. they've been speed fucken metal, and now they're clean-picked acoustic guitar, sounding like a dark country song. Of course, the sing-along hooks still offer plenty of melody and there are some slower moments that keep things interesting.One also can’t forget about the closing “Whorehouse Blues” as Mikkey Dee trades his drums in for another guitar and Lemmy breaks out the harmonica for a rousing acoustic jam that makes you wonder how many of these the band had left in them. The riff of Terminal Show kicks in immediately, and the album just does not fucking let up with the thrash/speed madness through the extended solo, and then the song Killers, and then.
