Liam Lacey at The Globe and Mail reviews the new Lemmy documentary -- titled, cleverly enough, Lemmy -- here. The trailer offers good entertainment value.
Lacey's review is unenthusiastic, but he does memorably liken a Motorhead concert to sounding like "a pack of Dobermans attacking an electric lawnmower." That's as apt a description of the band's particular appeal as you're likely to get. In other words: Lemmy! Lemmy! Lemmy!
If you don't already own No Remorse or Orgasmatron, you're simply a terrible, terrible person and I have nothing to say to you. The single "Killed By Death" captures Motorhead at their most ferocious, which is saying something. The original video offers the bonus pleasures of poufy Eighties hair and tiger-print tights. Essential.
