In a new interview with RollingStone.com, MOTÖRHEAD Lemmy Kilmister talks to Greg Prato about the upcoming new album from his THE HEAD CAT project:

Q: What can fans expect from Walk The Walk…Talk The Talk?

A: "It's old time rock & roll, it's feel-good music. It's music that would persuade your girlfriend to fuck you later!" [Laughs]

Q: Touring plans for The Head Cat?

A: "Not yet, but there will be. This year, Motörhead is really working all summer with festivals in Europe. So I'd like to try and get a couple of gigs in Europe with Head Cat while we're there, because we have five days now and again between festivals."

Ian "Lemmy" Kilmister, Slim Jim Phantom (THE STRAY CATS) and DANNY B. HARVEY (ROCKATS, 13 CATS, LONESOME SPURS), have teamed up in a high-energy, "take no prisoners" combo to remind the world how real rock 'n roll is supposed to fuckin' sound. The Head Cat serves up a delicious melting pot with flavors of rockabilly, punk, blues and undeniable rock 'n roll!

The Head Cat was formed in 2000 after recording an ELVIS PRESLEY tribute special to which all band members contributed. Slim Jim Phantom (drums, percussion), was born in Brooklyn and listened to his parents’ jazz records. At the age of ten he took up the drums although he always says that the drums chose him. He is an exceptional drummer who cemented his place among rock royalty long time ago and inspires and excites audiences worldwide.

Danny B. Harvey (guitar, piano) is Texas born and also discovered his love for music very early. He started playing the guitar at the age of six and even got a full scholarship to study classical guitar. He developed a finger picking guitar style that’s very unique and based on his idols MERLE TRAVIS and CHET ATKINS but also a result of his classical-technique education.

Lemmy Kilmister (vocals, bass, harmonica) was born and raised in England and started to play the guitar at the age of sixteen. With a laughing eye he always said that he only took the guitar to impress the girls. He is an autodidact and changed early to bass as he stated he wasn’t a good guitar player. After founding Motörhead in 1975 he knows the ups and downs in the business and has reached the status of an Icon all over the world.

The new Head Cat album, Walk The Walk...Talk The Talk, is due to be released July 5th through Niji Entertainment Group, the record label Wendy Dio and her and late husband Ronnie James Dio formed before his untimely passing.

Twelve fantastic songs for ‘Walk The Walk, Talk The Talk’ were chosen easily. HeadCat prepare to take over the airwaves with their first single 'American Beat'. ‘American Beat’ is a song written in the studio - Lemmy had the words and the rest came together very quickly. 'I Ain't Never' is one of the songs Lemmy really likes and Danny knew it - a real country, rockabilly number, full of love and ready to take you drifting away. 'Let It Rock' is one of their favorite CHUCK BERRY tunes - The Stones did it a lot in their live show in the 70's – HeadCat plays a different version. ‘Something Else’ is a classic Eddie Cochran - Lemmy came on stage with the Stray Cats and jammed on it at a show in the 90's at Hammersmith Odeon so it came quite natural to take this on the record as well.

'Walk The Walk...Talk The Talk' tracklisting confirmed as follows:

'American Beat'

'Say Mama'

'I Ain’t Never'

'Bad Boy'

'Shaking All Over'

'Let It Rock'

'Something Else'

'The Eagle Flies On Friday'

'Trying To Get To You'

'You Can’t Do That'

'It’ll Be Me'

'Crossroads'
