Motörhead’s Lemmy always claimed they were a rock n’ roll band. Motörhead’s seventeenth lawn-killer showed that they were pretty damn capable of making a metal album as well. Opening with one of their thrashiest tracks and closing with an acoustic blues number, it’s a shockingly vital late-career resurgence after a strong of okay records. “Killers” finds Lemmy at his snarlingest and “In the Name of Tragedy” rode Mikkey Dee’s drum bashing to the top, while “Life’s a Bitch” brought them right back to the ZZ Top worship they started their career with nearly thirty years prior.
