Neil Baron at RGJ.com recently caught up with MOTÖRHEAD frontman and living legend, Lemmy. An excerpt from the story is available below:

While enjoying cult status in the U.S., Motorhead has a large following in Europe. The band will reward several continents of fans in 2011, starting with a two-month U.S. tour through early March before taking off for an Australian, South American and European tour in late March. Summer festivals will follow.

It's a lifestyle Lemmy has worked to create, he said. He feels fortunate that he gets to do for a living what he enjoys most. If it's a little harder on the body, so be it. It's nothing several Jack and Coke drinks -- a Lemmy daily staple -- can't cure.

"I like what I do, you know?" Kilmister said, as he enjoyed a Jack and Coke. "It's who I am. It's not a job anymore. It's a little bit (physically demanding) but not enough to stop me from doing it."

Motörhead performed their new song, 'Get Back In Line', on the January 26th episode of Conan O'Brien's new nighttime talk show on US network TBS, Conan. Check out footage of the performance below:

'Get Back In Line' is featured on Motörhead's new studio album, The Wörld Is Yours, due out on February 8th in North America. A CD/DVD Edition of The Wörld Is Yours will also be available. The DVD includes: Recording of The Wörld Is Yours Documentary including live footage from Manchester Apollo gig - 30 mins; 'Ace Of Spades' - Acoustic version; video for 'Get Back In Line' and video for 'I Know How To Die'.

Written and performed by Lemmy Kilmister, Philip Campbell and Mikkey Dee in both Los Angeles, CA and Wales, UK, The Wörld Is Yours, was made with longtime producer Cameron Webb, who also worked on Motörizer, Kiss Of Death and Inferno.

The Wörld Is Yours continues a worldwide addiction to the Motörhead sound and lifestyle which saw 2008's Motörizer break both the band's own sales records and the Billboard Top 100 chart.
