Editorial Review: Amazon.com: Since 1975 Motörhead--spearheaded by the grungy, iconic British metalhead Lemmy Kilmister--has been churning out speedy, macho, aggro anthems, including "Ace of Spades," "Killed by Death," and "Eat the Rich." The phrases "trendy" or "critical favorites" have never been attached to the Grammy-nominated band, and Hammered isn't the record to change Motörhead's antiestablishment standing. The 11-song outing (plus two bonus tracks) will, however, satiate longtime fans. The power trio rages--complete with piercing guitar solos and double-bass drums--on the urgent and winning "Brave New World," and is only slightly more mainstream on "Walk a Crooked Mile," which boasts melodic choruses and backup vocals, and crunchy rhythms matched with Lemmy's trademark gruff, guttural talk-singing. Lemmy's no sex symbol, and it's disquieting to hear him sing somewhat romantic lyrics on "Dr. Love" and "Mine All Mine." The songs like "No Remorse" and "Voices from the War" seem more suited to the singer-bassist's brusque persona. In fact, Hammered's most definitive Motörhead-esque cut is probably the bloody "Red Raw," which will give all but the most practiced headbangers whiplash. --Katherine Turman Customer Reviews

 Rating:  - my favorite motorhead album...this is my favorite motorhead album. to me, this album is the perfect mix of old and new motorhead. songs to check out are, "walk a crooked mile", "shut your mouth", and "the game". if you only have room for a few motorhead albums in your cd collection, this is a must! Rating:  - HammeredMotorhead-Hammered *** Not the best. Hammered honestly let me down. I'm not saying it is a bad album because it most certainly isn't. The thing is that I expected more from it when I bought it and not only did I not get that but I got something completly different. Hammered came out in 2002, which was sort of the heighth of that NuMetal bull and this album really sounds NuMetal more so than my taste can handle. I hate NuMetal so this album is a little hard for me to stomach which is sad because Motorhead is one of my very favorite bands. 'Walk A Crooked Mile' starts off the album decent but should have been much better. The lyrics are among that of Lemmys best but the musicianship is just poor, it's like they ...

Rating: - Not great but HEY! Its Motorhead!This album honestly is just not good. Dont get me wrong, motorhead is definaltey one of my top three favorite bands, and ive seen them twice in concert, but this album just doesnt cut it! It is waaaaay too melodic and poetic. I know everyone was waiting for another motorhead album three years ago, but this definatley did not satisfy me. If you are someone new to motorhead, dont get this, get bomber, ace of spades, overkill, and no sleep til' hammersmith first. Bit seriously I am so glad inferno came out, it seriously kicked ass go get that one too. Rating:  - Motorhead Will Never DieI was really stunned by this album, because it got great peaks in U.K Charts, European Charts, and yet in the U.S. this album almost doesn't exist. This album is really very good, starts off a little rocky but when Brave New World hits, and that impressive solo pulled off by Phil Campbell is really impressive. Voices From The War is a very serious song but is very well done. Shut Your Mouth is a more fun track, sounds like Motorhead really has fun with it. Kill The World has a great bass sound pulled off by Lemmy. No Remorse, not only brings back an old title from Motorhead but a very good song, a slow rough Bass sound and an impressive guitar solo makes the song really good. Also, Red Raw brings back some of the ingredients from Ace Of Spades, ... Read More: |
