MOTÖRHEAD - New Album Title Confirmed
May 30, 2008, 16 years ago
MOTÖRHEAD have confirmed the name of the follow-up to their 2006 album Kiss Of Death - it's called Motorizer. Drummer Mikkey Dee, guitarist Phil Campbell and frontman Lemmy Kilmister have been working at FOO FIGHTER mainman Dave Grohl's studio in Los Angeles on the album.
As previously reported, the life and career of Lemmy Kilmister is being celebrated in a new documentary, tentatively titled Lemmy and slated for release in 2009. According to Billboard.com, the film promises fans more access than ever before to Kilmister's life, and includes interviews with past and present bandmates and such peers/admirers as SLASH, Dave Grohl, THE CLASH's Mick Jones, ALICE COOPER, STEVE VAI and wrestling superstar Triple H.
A distribution deal hasn't yet been inked, but the teaser clip, featuring on-stage footage and such amusing backstage segments as Kilmister testing out a bass amp at deafening volume and telling dirty jokes, is available at Lemmymovie.com.
