Music reviews of Ace of Spades
Music Review: Best offering from Lemmy and the Gang
Rating: 5 Stars
For anyone who likes metal or plays metal, somewhere down the road they have been introduced to Motorhead. This album is the essential Motorhead album as far as studio albums go. It has power, speed, anger and Fast Eddie's great blues-influenced licks and solos. All of the songs capture Motohead's live sound which is hard to do in the studio. The tracks have a rawness about them that is honest, there are obviously little to no overdubs or added parts to most songs. IN essence, it sounds like it was recorded live. The album starts off with perhaps the bands most well-known track, "Ace of Spades". The album has more to offer than that however. There are the boogie-beat inspired "Dance", the backstage sights of "Jailbait", the ode to his crew "We are the Road Crew" and my personal favorite, "Love me like a Reptile" which offers us Lemmy's perspective on love. This Album does not have a bad track and they all have that signature Motorhead sound which just makes the whole album rock. If you don't know Motorhead or need to be re-introduced to one of the greatest Rock/Metal bands who have influenced the Likes of Metallica and Armored Saint, get this CD.
Description of Ace of Spades
They're still going, of course, having earned a similar place in the affections of the British public to that of the Queen Mother. Ace of Spades is the reason for Motörhead's high standing. Or, to be precise, the title track of this album is the reason. "Ace of Spades," along with Steppenwolf's "Born to Be Wild," is the definitive heavy-metal biker anthem, and Lemmy's midsong bellow of "And that's the way I like it baby, I don't want to live forever" is declaration of intent that has rung down the ages. That Lemmy has since given every appearance of obstinate immortality does not detract from it in the slightest. --Andrew MuellerAlternative Rock CDs
