I'm back (hear Lemmy style evil laugh)....(the dope ran out and mommy
totalled out our van and the credit cards are permanently dead and speed
doesn't kill...unless you have pre-existing medical problems .....damn)

went to MH show,,,,,,drank constantly throughout......

had blast.........new album best since Orgasmatron in this ones OPINION.....
yelled obsenities and flipped bird at band for rolling into Dallas, and
playing NONE of the new tunes ......or was I that drunk?....oh well......I
blamed Dave Brock for Lemmy's knocking over the microphone stand
accidentally, and good thing my voice is completely fried from yelling "GET
HELP" at my mom over and over for days in a row...he did do a weird
double-take, so maybe he heard it....shucks.....it was all in fun Lemmy, we
know the Osbournes love you and so do we,,,(somebody at the show said I
look like Ozzy's brother) (and yes I know nothing can save me now)
(right?),,so this apology is official, however incorrrectly planted since
your Yahoo (MH) group list is too HTML sensitive and SHUT YOUR MOUTH seems
to apply there, for me.............

I hope Dave hasn't mentally kicked me out........(it's the ONLY HOPE)


hope all is well with ALL, and how about some exciting news for a guy who
has to learn that he can't handle anything, especially speed, for the third
or fourth time in life...is this life?

I want more....life

yours,

GRINCH

BOB MAYO SAID:
<<<one longtime (since 'bomber') fan's opinion:
good, not great...

lyrics are brilliant throughout; theres a section in 'brave new world' about
jesus that is just hilarious, and a spoken section during 'voices from the
war' that is very effective as well. 'serial killer' is awesome, just
masterful.lem is surely at the top of his lyrical game here.

production is strange to these ears; the drums are much lower in the mix than
on any other album with mr dee, and what a difference it makes! lem's vocals
seem louder as well, but this just may be a result of the 'missing' drums.
bass sound is great, a mix of the last lp's driving mid and 'o'night
sensation's slick low-end.  lem's playing is fantastic, devaiting from the
guitar lines often; playing Bass Lines!

not hearing any "classics"; though 'no remorse' has the intensity and menace
of 'orgasmatron' (really!), and 'red raw' is much in the vein of 'die you
bastard'. 'voices...' and 'brave...' are excellent, too. 'walk a crooked
mile' is almost 6 minutes long, with lots of multi-lemmy harmonies
throughout, a strange 1st track/1st impression.

i think any new motorhead lp should be judged against the last 6; and alas, i
think 'hammered' comes in last at #7. still plenty of stuff here for the
motorfan to get excited about, but certainly not as strong as the last few.

love the cover; looks like a beer bottle label to me...
just my opinion,
