February 5, 2011, 13 years ago
MOTÖRHEAD frontman / legend Lemmy Kilmister is featured in a new interview with Stay Thirsty Media. An excerpt is available below:
STM: What’d you do after that last premiere in Austin? Did you have some down time here in LA?
Lemmy: "Yeah, what we were doing back then? In the life of Motörhead it’s like a year ago. I came back to the studio, I think, yeah. Then we went out last summer for festivals in Europe, like we do every year. And here we are, you know?"
STM: So you didn’t have any down time at all.
Lemmy: "I don’t need down time. What for?"
STM: Tell me about the new Motörhead record.
Lemmy: "It’s out on February the 10th or something, I’m not sure. I’ll play you that, too, if you like.We’re playing about three (new) songs I think, but we’re doing two right now in the set; 'Get Back In Line' and 'I Know How to Die'."
STM: Briefly tell me when you wrote those and what was the inspiration?
Lemmy: "In the studio. War, death, sex, and pain."
