Lemmy sure sang about fucking a lot for a man with a face like a soldering bench
Sometimes I need a record that isn’t going to challenge me emotionally, intellectually, or musically. Sometime I just want to caveman out. For these moments, there is Ace of Spades.
This album was an easy 5 for me… right up until “Jailbait”. Yikes, Lemmy, what the fuck were you thinking?
Pure rock. it's like extract of rock. So much rock.
All songs are the same, raw production, Lemmy cannot sing, frivolous lyrics, five stars!
Music is ok....but the lyrics SO INCEDIBLY LAME! I defy anyone to listen to and hear the lyrics to "love me like a reptile " and not roll their eyes. How can anyone intelligent person absorb a Joy Division lyrics and not laugh out loud at the drivel that Lemmy spews. I understand how musical taste is always subjective, but.... 2 🌟
Here's one I don't get. This album gets accolades for being some work of genius, and I think it's terrible. I've played in some dumpy rock venues in my day, and I've heard my share of terrible bands. I mean awful. And this sounds like a lot of that — the band that's playing before you and, once they start, you think, "how the fuck am I going to get through this set?" and you have nowhere to go. Mediocre riffs, mediocre performance — and that's not even it. The whole point seems to be not to play well. In fact, I was feeling pretty certain that the players on the song "Ace Of Spades" were not the same as the rest of the album (it does not appear to be the case). "Ace" has a musical acuity to it that just disappears after the song ends. It's noisy as hell and just on the edge of musical, but the playing is tight, the tones are massive, and the riff's alright. Then "Love Me Like A Reptile" comes on and the whole thing falls to pieces. Somehow, through it all, there is an honesty to the music, the band attains a sense of purpose and cool, which must be what people are reacting to, because the music is lousy.
An absolute classic. I love how Lemmy just always sounds like he's trying to take a poop.
Everything you’d expect from a quintessential metal record of this vintage — growling vocals, driving riffs (several of which were outright lifted by Screaming Trees), themes straddling the sexy/sexist divide (“Jailbait”) beloved by Spinal Tap, total lack of irony, and high lyricism (“I’ve got no excuse/you like it fast and loose” “Wake up and let me in/for some original sin” “I love the life I lead/another beer is what I need” “come on baby, let me get you in the sack/you know the chase is better than the catch”). It all adds up to metal’s usual exercise in tedium.
Ace of Spades is really the only noteworthy track here. Everything else pales in comparison. Decent album that was very influencial, but honestly it all sounds the same to me.
The sound of extra chunky meth crystals cutting up the inside of your nose. There is nothing in this world more ROCK N ROLL than this album. This album is the most ROCK N ROLL an album can be. This is the summit of Mount ROCK. I dare you to play it quietly. I dare you to try to do something mundane while this is playing. We're only halfway through side one here on a sleepy Sunday afternoon and already I've been compelled to snort a line of bleach and put my fist through some drywall. You know I'm born to lose And gambling's for fools But that's the way I like it, baby I don't want to live forever And don't forget the joker Motorhead is the motherlode of the satanic deathwish vein that has run through rock from its first pickings. Playing Chicken with the devil. Lemme's living to 70 forced particle physicists to revise their Standard Model. Usually people who collect Nazi memorabilia piss me off, but Lemme is the exception that proves the rule. It would be disappointing if he didn't collect Nazi shit. Another town I've left behind Another drink, completely blind Another hotel I can't find Another backstage pass for you Another tube of superglue Another border to get through I'm driving like a maniac Driving my way to hell and back Pass the superglue and all hail a TRUE ROCK GOD!
They made the same song 12 times.
Oh, a bug! Somehow the site lets me rate this album from 1-5, even though its by Lemmy. Anything by Lemmy is a 5. “We are Motörhead. And we play rock and roll.”
If Motörhead didn't exist, it would have been necessary to create them. Some huge Norwegian blacksmith hammering the band out of Marlboro reds, Jack Daniels, gunmetal, and heroin.
Jos pidät pelaamisesta Kerron sinulle, olen miehesi Voitat osan, menetät osan Ihan sama minulle Ilo on pelata Ei väliä mitä sanot En jaa ahneuttasi Ainoa kortti mitä tarvitsen On Pataässä Pataässä Pelaaminen korkealle Tanssii paholaisen kanssa Menee virran mukana Se kaikki on minulle peliä Seitsemän tai yksitoista Käärmeen silmät katsovat sinua Tuplaa tai lopeta Tuplapanos tai split Pataässä Pataässä Tiedät, että olen syntynyt häviämään Ja uhkapelit ovat tyhmille Mutta siitä pidän, kulta En halua elää ikuisesti Ja älä unohda jokeria Ante työntäminen ylös Tiedän, että sinun täytyy nähdä minut Lue ne ja itke Kuolleen miehen käsi taas Näen sen silmissäsi Katso yksi ja kuole Ainoa asia, jonka näet Tiedät, että se tulee olemaan Pataässä Pataässä, uh
Well, sensibilities have certainly changed since 1980. Enjoyed the sound. Didn't enjoy the lyrics.
What a fucking rush. They don’t deviate much from this formula, but my god is their formula worth listening to. Their mission statement is as direct as their throttling brand of metal: We are Motörhead, and we play rock and roll. It’s really remarkable how some records just consolidate the most perfect distillations of their genre - Ramones’ debut, Eno’s Another Green World and undeniably this one. Lemmy’s rock star charisma isn’t some exaggerated caricature, he fucking embodies every trope of the badass rocker in a completely authentic manner. And if you don’t like that, you can fuck off. Even extremely subject matters on tracks like “Jailbait” can be read as a matter-of-fact narration of the full throttle lifestyle of this band. The songs and production still hold up today, and the oft wielded criticism that this record lacks diversity seems a bit redundant to me. There’s no point criticising this group for what they aren’t. They’re just Motörhead. And they play some exhilarating rock and roll. Fav tracks: Shoot You In The Back, We Are The Roadcrew.
Excellent metal album got me pumped- some epic guitar solos although questionable (pedo) and bad lyrics on two particular songs
Every song sounds the same. Every song is awful.
Didn't mind it much. Just high-tempo and fun - you know what you're getting. Not much variety. However, 1 star for Jailbait. Don't be a nonce.
One star, for the title track only. Music for losers. Absolute shite.
Very similar songs, gets boring after a while.
Great, classic album. Unique metal sound that paved the way for speed metal, thrash and gutter punk.
This album is pretty one note, but by design. At least that one note effing rocks
Is it punk? Is it metal? Who fucking cares. It’s Motörhead, man.
It's Motörhead, so you never know quite what you're going to get. ...said nobody. This is a classic though!
Kinda just Ace of Spades over and over again innit?
I got the point after five songs that sound the same .. "Jailbait", boy howdy, does not meet 2026 standards
Ugh - no way. Not my taste.
Fantastic album of loud, high energy rock / metal. You can really hear the punk influences from the riffs, though the distortion and speed place it closer to heavy metal (even if Lemmy disagreed). An all-time classic that I've listened to many times.
You know when you take a bunch of speed to sober up from all the whiskey you drank and then keep it going for 3 days until you end up killing a snake with your bare hands outside of a biker bar in Tempe, Arizona and cooking it on an open flame with an elderly mute woman you are fairly convinced only you can see? This is the album that is playing in the background.
Arguably the only truly great band to come out of NWOBHM, Motörhead’s third album is an absolute speed-thrash masterpiece. It’s tenacious, it’s fast, and if you’re listening to it correctly, it’s fucking loud. Lemmy's vocal style truly stands alone, and he spends a little more time singing and a little less time yelling on this album compared to the first two. His gravelly vocal fry is unmistakable. Fast Eddie’s rock n roll guitar is an absolute perfect fit to the songs as written, and his live performances are somehow even better. Philthy Animal’s drums are almost pre-thrash metal, but they’re mixed in so perfectly and his fills are always right on the money. The title track off the album is so legendary it’s impossible to say anything about it that hasn’t been said before. Just an incredible song. My personal favourite on the album is “(We Are) the Roadcrew” an ode to the roadies not just that worked with Motörhead, but roadies all over the world. The unsung heroes of the rock n roll world certainly deserve such a great chorus. “Fire Fire” is another song on this fantastic album that really stands out. I can’t say enough things about Lemmy’s lyricism, arrangement, and artistic capabilities. There’s not a single song that lasts a moment longer than it needs to. I’m not sure I could even complain about a single thing on this album if I tried. The most deserving album so far of a 5* rating.
I've never listened to this album before, although a few of the tunes I knew from a live Motorhead album I had when I was a kid - We are the road crew in particular. So, quite jolly here and I enjoyed the extended album. Brought back memories of Scumbag College in the 80s as well - probably the first time I'd have heard Ace of Spades I suppose. One I'll definitely listen to again. Somewhere between 4 and 5 stars, but it's got enough memories on it to push it up to 5 just about.
I hate how much I enjoy this album. On the one hand, it's pretty dated and one note. On the other hand, I can't help but start moving my head when metal starts playing. Decent riffs and the lyrics are largely fun (not touching "Jailbait" with a ten foot pole...) but very AC/DC in that all the songs just sound the same and the vocals aren't that impressive.
Just a sledgehammer of a rock album. It kicks you in the balls relentlessly and expects you to love it. You can absolutely hear how influential their sound became to those that followed. While some recoil at Lemmy's vocal stylings, I find that the album is the better for it. It adds to the raw intensity that the band exudes and wouldn't be as enjoyable without it.
Not a huge metal fan, but I do like punk, and I feel like Motörhead are one of the punkiest metal bands out there. Some tasteless tracks like Jailbait aside, this thing is a blistering, high voltage thrill that I played loud. The pure rock and roll of it all transcends the often piss poor lyrics and Lemmy's growl. Gets repetitive but I don't care, it almost all works for me. Mad Max music
Motorhead play bluesy hard rock, and they play it *very* fast and *very* loud. I already know there's a few speed metal bands out there that probably crib off this band alongside Deep Purple. A fun listen, and I'd already listened to a couple tracks before via the compilation album "No Remorse". Always a fan of Lemmy and his cranked to 11 bass guitar + smoked out growling vocals. While I don't want to come off as a pearl clutcher, given that listening to Motorhead and not expecting crass lyrics is a little insane, the song "Jailbait" is pretty fucking grating to listen to. No amount of catchy riffs can really save it for me given the fact it's another embarassing rock song about pedophilia. Leave that type of songwriting to, I don't know, Jethro Tull I guess. 8.5/10
Wow this is pretty good. I like this style of music honestly, really guitar heavy and great drums. Good reason to finally listen to motorhead songs that aren't just Ace of Spades. I also like being able to hear their accents haha Ok so all the songs sound so similar but theyre pretty good. Don't love some of the lyrics but I think it's good. Overall: 4/5
As a pretentious punker in the late 70's/early 80's, this was the only metal band I liked, and this was the only album I liked. I actually have an "Ace of Spades" button, waiting to pass on to another generation of Motorhead fans. Lyrics and guitars are good and driving. Only criticism is the vocals--not enough variety--could use a break from the screaming at times.
Consistently rocks, but songs are one-note after the opening blast. Band fun enough to carry it, but I wish they did more with that manic grind.
It’s like listening to a whole block of WIMZ Knoxville’s classic rock. In that it’s all kind of the same but not terrible
I don’t want to sound like a bleeding heart lib but some songs like “Jailbait” really don’t age well. That being said there are obviously some classic songs and overall it’s a good sounding album.
Had never heard beyond "Ace of Spades" and this album blew me away. Just an all-out sonic assault in the best possible way. Taking off a star for the tastelessness of "Jailbait" and some other lyrics. This is the most punkish metal I've ever heard. It melted my face off.
Ace of Spades by Motörhead is pure, unfiltered rock and roll, its loud, fast, and unapologetic. Lyrically it’s largely about sex, excess, and life on the road, and it doesn’t pretend to be anything more profound than that. This album isn’t designed to make you think. It’s there to hit you hard and keep going. The riffs are relentless, the pace rarely lets up, and Lemmy’s snarling delivery gives everything that raw, gritty edge. It’s heavy, high-energy and undeniably fun. Favourite tracks: “Ace of Spades” is superb — an absolute monster of a track and easily the standout. “(We Are) The Road Crew” is also strong, capturing that chaotic touring lifestyle perfectly. The rest of the album is ok, though nothing quite reaches the level of the title track. Least favourite tracks: Nothing was terrible, it’s consistently good and much more enjoable than I thought, but much of it blends into one high-speed blur behind the iconic opener. Album artwork: I love the album cover, angry and full of leather.
As is usual with motorhead they struggle to not remake the same song over and over. But where the previous motorhead album I listened to for this list (the live album) is miles better is the wise choice to leave shit like Jailbait off the playlist.
Lemmy does not dick around. For a guy whose motto seemed to be, "I'm one of the ugliest mother fuckers alive, but I sure get a lot of pussy", it makes all the sense in the world.
I was excited for this album. I love Ace of Spades. Unfortunately, as I listened to more and more of the album, the lyrics were cringe. Jailbait? Some may say that is the way it was back when this was written. Well, albums have to hold up, and this one doesn’t.
There’s not much depth here, but there’s almost enough attitude and power to make up for it. I was gonna give it 3 stars, but Jailbait earned it 2.
Ace of Spades First listen, this is pretty fun rollicking punky rock’n’roll metally thrash, if you don’t pay attention too closely to the lyrics. Musically, as a rock’n’roll/metal/punk act they are good at what they do, and the energy and attack are great. They are clearly far superior to the thrash and late 80s metal they inspired, probably due to that rock’n’roll swing and less double kick drum. However the 2nd and 3rd time around it does start to lose much of that ‘charm’, the lack of deviation from their standard template becomes pretty obvious, and, apart from (We Are) The Roadcrew there not being anything nearly as good as Ace of Spades means it does start to get quite stale as a whole 35 minute listening experience. Lyrically it’s pretty charmless from the off, and aside from a couple of songs it mainly consists of songs about shagging, which unfortunately conjures the mental image of Lemmy remorselessly humping groupies in squalid dressing rooms, smelling of sweat, unwashed leather trousers, fags and booze. And then of course there’s Jailbait. Charitably speaking you could say it hasn’t aged well, or that it’s a song satirising rock stars who shag underage groupies, but realistically they are a band not known for their subtlety. Either way the song is a pretty gross listen. On first listen I thought this might scrape a 4, but on subsequent listens it regressed to the cusp of 2 and 3. Ace of Spades is banger and I like (We Are) The Roadcrew, but the other songs are a bit forgettable and/or a bit icky. Think I’ll stick on high 2 as I don’t think I’ll come back to it. ♠️♠️ Playlist submission: Obviously it’s Ace of Spades, but for a change I’ll go (We Are) The Roadcrew.
Loses a star for Jailbait. Don't be weird. Otherwise, this is a fine album.
Liked Ace of Spades but a lot of the rest of the songs are kind of gross.
‘Ace of Spades’ is great, but then the album repeats itself with diminishing returns. Also, some of the lecherous lyrics are clearly dated with their creepy praise for sexual predation. Too bad they didn’t just keep to the cards.
Not that great in general and Lemmy's "singing" is just god awful. Only song I kinda liked is (We are) The Road Crew but of course it then reminded me I picked a bad week to quit sniffing glue.
I liked Lemmy better when he was in Hawkwind.
Jailbait... WTF! 🙉
“Ace of Spades” by Motörhead (1980) With an appealing and relentlessly upbeat punk/metal/rock sound, Motörhead preaches a ‘gospel’ of lechery, rashness, violence, and an obliterated sense of personal responsibility in this caricature of a caricature by a bunch of musical cosplay cowboys. Their unattenuated gunslinger testosterone and other fired up hormones (“Dance”), as expressed in their lyrics, give evidence of dehumanizing recklessness, and their fast-paced—if undisciplined—musical vibe holds it all together, albeit like duct tape. From sex with underage girls (“Jailbait”), to treating women as disposable commodities (“Bite the Bullet”), to a murderous synthesis of love and hate (“Love Me Like a Reptile”), they replace the good, the true and the beautiful with the good, the bad and the ugly. We endure pathetically elemental stuck-on-one-note ‘melodies’ and almost interesting chord structures. Vocally supplying snarl and rasp where power is unavailable, lead singer/songwriter/bassist Lemmy Kilmister (his real surname) is consistently wimpy. Drums provide blazing tempo, but sloppy fills, and lead guitar riffs too often abandon the rhythm, as if it were a foot race in which every runner is disqualified. This album screams to the intended adolescent listener: You too can destroy yourself and others, but preferably not in that order. And “that thou doest, do quickly.” 1/5
Repetitive and gets stale pretty quick. Apart from a few tracks, the album doesn’t offer much.
IT's Motorhead. It's Ace of Spades. IT's one of the icons of metal. 100% all the way.
Influential across every genre of rock that came after it. From thrash to punk to metal to anything with a hard backbeat.
"Ace of Spades" is almost unfair song to kick of an album with: the rockinest rock song that ever rocked. I'm about halfway through the album and pretty much amazed that the tracks that follow aren't a letdown after that opener, but they somehow aren't. The guitar solo/feedback exercise in "The Roadcrew" is amazing. I definitely didn't expect that when I put this album on. (I'm looking forward to replaying Ace of Spades again to see if it still stands out after the rest.... I suspect it'll surprise me and rip my skin off where I thought I'd built up callouses.) I feel like I should have heard this years ago and had it in my library, so that's a pretty good indicator that it belongs in the list. 4.5/5
Subtle as a brick to the face and all the better for it. The smell of Jack Daniels and stale cigarette smoke is strong with this one.
Great week - 3 awesome records in a row - Sugar - Copper Blue, The Birthday Party - Junkyard and now this. Motörhead’s debut is a timeless classic and Ace of Spades a timeless song. This album has never gotten old. Lemmy’s songwriting remained remarkably consistent over the years with this record serving as the sonic blueprint for every thing that came after. Live these songs hit even harder as they were clearly meant to be experienced live rather than just listened too on the turntable. But funny enough the songs bring joy regardless of where they are experienced. The record is not perfect because a few tracks come off as similar and it really is hard to claim perfection when a few tracks are clearly a cut above the rest. But, fuck, in a land full of competitors and imitators, there was no one quite like Motörhead. 5/5
And don’t forget the Joker.
I absolutely loved this album back in the 80s. I never owned it but my best friend a had it. Just great visceral energy. It fucks hard. (10) ★★★★★ But why did they have to go full Nugent right there in the middle of the album. Yikes 😬
Not my favourite Motörhead album, which may be because of over-familiarity, especially with the title track, but also because the best songs on the first three albums are, to me, better than those on this, the band's 4th. It's all fairly subjective though because Motörhead didn't really evolve from album to album - despite later lineup changes, they sounded pretty much the same (with the exception of the experiment with Brian Robertson ex-Thin Lizzy on Another Perfect Day, which I like a lot even if no-one else seemed to...). Ace of Spades may be the band's best sounding album though, the production is excellent. The sound could have been muddy, and was on some other recordings, with Lemmy playing rhythm bass, Phil Taylor clattering along with his double-bass drumming and Fast Eddie Clarke's limited but very effective guitar, but there is a lot of space in the mix - you can hear Lemmy's Rickenbacker clearly, as you can the other instruments; they all sit distinctly in the mix. Lemmy may have always claimed that Motörhead were a rock and roll band and not a metal band but this album, and Overkill & Bomber the year before, came along at just the right time with the emergence of NWOBHM and had a huge influence on the 1980s metal scene in general
This really is an album you need to hear before you die.
My old mate Pedro Crabbto (he of the Mudflaps fame) loved this album back in High School and I’m sorry to say I didn’t pay much attention to it. But old man rocker me loves this! 5 stars, Fast & Loose baby!
# Album Name: Ace of Spades # Artist: Motorhead # Rating: 5/5 # Comments: Such an iconic opener in Ace of Spades. Banger of an album. lots of energy. I enjoyed it. RIP lemmy. Shredding those geetars. # Top Tunes: AoS / Reptile / Shoot you in the back / Road Crew / Bite the bullet # Would I listen to it again? Yes
I enjoyed this a lot more than I thought I would, more a Lemmy in Hawkwind kind of girl. However I loved it a high 4 stars, oh to hell O'll give it foive.
This is banging. Really energised me this morning. It's not deep, it's not meaningful, it's just pure, unadulterated heavy rock. Love it.
Good record
An amazing rocknroll record
Lemmy rules and there is nothing that psyches you up more than the Ace of Spades.
cobra is peak. added to the likes. husbands give me the vibe like im back in high school driving nowhere at night and nothing feel real. not in like a bad way but i think the first half of this album is “stronger” than the other half. Au pays du cocaine is an understandable top song. it’s rly good. overall, i added this album to my saved albums and will listen again. it’s weird and interesting just like a lot of the albums that i listen to (like brockhampton)
Mon dieu
Hell Yeah, Lemmy!!!
this is great and exciting fav song: Fire Fire
Excellent
Great
I saw Motorhead at Glastonbury and my overriding memory was Lemmy addressing the crowd: “You like rock n roll don’t ya? Say yes goddammit!” before tearing into another blistering song. This is what this record is. It has a singular vision to just rock your socks off, and it does it so well. Kicking straight off with Ace of Spades is a real sign of intent, but it holds up for the whole album. Really great, fast-paced, driving rhythms, excellent guitar work and hard solos, and a voice of rough leather and pure attitude over the top. 4.5 rounded up.
>>>>> the Beatles This is one of the greatest albums of all time. It rules. Ace of Spades is a classic but, for me, We Are The Road Crew is the best song here Who would win in a fight between Lemmy and God? Trick question; Lemmy is God
Motörhead is simply an icon of rock ‘n’ roll, and *Ace of Spades* is their most iconic album. Of course, you have to be familiar with this album, and naturally, you have to recognize the riff from the title track after just two bars. And much like with Elvis Presley’s debut album, what comes after it doesn’t really matter when it comes to evaluating it. Still, a few words on the matter: Culture must always be viewed in the context of its time. For this reason, I believe it is misguided to criticize Lemmy for the lyrics he wrote in 1980: his mindset - especially toward women - is easy to understand even from today’s perspective, based on his work from the ’90s and his actions. Rather, “Ace of Spades”—perhaps even more so than Iron Maiden’s debut album of the same name—has defined the style of harder rock since the 1980s. "Legend" is the only appropriate description!
Original review: "Classic. I have to give this a 5, I owe so much to this album. One of the greatest metal albums. Punk rock and biker rock. Their sound is undeniable and they inspired future generations." 'nuff said.
Fan-freakin-tastic. This is loud, aggressive, fast and boisterous. I love it. It feels like the perfect continuation of Black Sabbath but more punk. Like very punk. This is the bridge of punk and metal and its fantastic. I can't say its something that I can "vibe out" with, but its definitely that I can hang out with all day when the mood is right. Its just fast and fun. Its like a rollercoaster ride in the most pure sense, the ups and downs are equally thrilling.
Belle découverte !
Metal n’ Roll! Der er fuld fart på Lemmy & Co. på et album der lægger mange sten på vejen til det Trash der senere kommer ud af Californien. Det er ikke særlig avanceret, men det fungere helt perfekt.
Excellent rock and roll.
Fuck yeah, it’s fast, it’s heavy, it’s largely about shagging, but it’s fun. Motörhead are one of those bands that really nailed each part of what they were about. They sounded loud and fast, and wrote songs to match. They sang about drinking, taking drugs, sex, gambling, living life to the fullest and westerns. And they did most of that as often as possible whilst dressed as cowboys. RIP Lemmy 5.0/5.0 Best Song: Ace Of Spades/Live To Win
Riffs, loads of riffs, the greatest stepdad-core album of all time. They essentially perfected their sound in the first song and repeat it for the whole album but its so good it doesn't matter. The meeting place between punk, metal and rock. Best Track: It's always going to be ace of spades, but we are the road crew is class as well
Hell yeah simulator. 5/5
"We are Motörhead and we play rock and roll" zoals Lemmy altijd zei. En of dit 1 en al rock and roll is. Het gelijknamige titel nummer is natuurlijk 1 van de meest legendarische metalnummers ooit geschreven, maar de rest van het album doet er echt niet voor onder. Invloeden vanuit de blues en het vroegere rock and roll zijn allemaal duidelijk te horen maar wel in een steviger jasje. Het is ook niet voor niets 1 van de meest iconische metalalbums ooit gemaakt. Dikke 5 sterren waard!
Made me undertsand the nuances in metal and rock
I am a big Lemmy fan (also of songs he wrote for others). I have always enjoyed this album since it was released. Not for everyone but a classic for the genre.
Hammer, ein Riesenalbum vom Anfang bis zum Ende. It's Rock'n Roll!
Not going to overthink this one, as far as metal goes it’s a 5 if there ever was.
In your face!
This album smells like meth sweat, crankcase oil, stale beer, and tanned leather. And it fucking rocks. Straight up, greasy rock and roll. Just killer in every way if you're looking for this sort of thing.
I have love the singles form this album for sometime but have never listened to the whole album all the way through , wow what top rock and roll , metal what ever top tunes all the way through and lennys gravelly voice just adds to the chaos which is this album First one I have reviewed which warrants going out and buying and adding to my collection
Legend
What's not to like?
