Well, I am sure many of you guys are asking yourselves whether we need another MOTORHEAD compilation album, featuring previously available tracks and since there have been so many compilations around throughout the years, indeed.

Yes, I realize you may be skeptical about such releases but hey, give it a shot anyhow. Just don’t perceive this one to be another opportunity created by the label to get your money for the stuff you already have in your collection but treat it as another collector`s item – you surely know these tracks by heart, right?

Tell me, how often did you keep looking at your shelves, the shelves bending under the weight of your collections still, yet, you were mulling over what to play?

I know this kind of dilemma very well myself; therefore, what one needs in such a situation are compilation albums on which you can find the songs composed by your Metal Gods…this is why I like compilations; and yes, sure, it would be even better if there were featured some extra, previously unreleased tracks.

 It goes without saying that all of us love rare stuff and despite the fact this very two-disk compilation does not contain any, well, this still is a good listen for two reasons: first off, the way it has been released is simply beauteous, second, the choice of songs is a very good one, indeed. This particular compilation is available in the box-CD format as well as a Die Hard 4xLP version. Yes, the track list this release features is impressive to say the least: legendary Overkill, We Are Motorhead, Iron Fist, Orgasmatron, Bomber, 1916, Kill by Death, Ace of Spades, and the song which ends this release – Motorhead.

Do these and other 22 songs stand for an amazing two-disk compilation? Absolutely yes! Don’t forget that thanks to releases like this one, MOTORHEAD`s music shall never die.

This fire must be fuelled incessantly so that new generations of young people can discover this unique band`s timeless music. And this is another reason why compilations like this one should exist. I am looking forward to the Iron Fist LP-box which is planned to be out next year, to commemorate the album`s 40^thanniversary.

This is the first MOTORHEAD album I have ever listened to. Therefore, perhaps, this is why I am so excited about this one. A piece of awesome music, plain and simple.

It is true that MOTORHEAD disbanded, but the group`s very legacy: its timeless music has, over the years, provided us with a lot of entertainment and has, too, inspired a countless number of new metal brothers.
