Motörhead
No Sleep 'Til Hammersmith

THE REVIEW

I have always been skeptical of live albums because I thought they altered the original studio-recorded melody, but when I heard this, I was left speechless.

"No sleep til hammersmith" represents the early career of the legendary band Motorhead, the forerunners of nearly all the heavy metal from the eighties, nineties, and 2000s. Their sound, hard, raw, and unrefined, supported by Lemmy's raspy, grating voice, has always remained true to itself throughout their career without ever becoming too commercial.

As I mentioned before, "No sleep til hammersmith" is a summary of their early career represented by the albums "Motorhead" (1977), "Overkill" (1978), "Bomber" (1979), and "Ace of Spades" (1980), and their lineup is the best they ever had with, of course, Lemmy Kilmister, vocals and bass, Eddy Clark, guitar, Phil Taylor, drums.
That evening, the evening of "No sleep til hammersmith," they were all three wild as if they were tanks attacking the enemy. The music seems to emerge directly from the savanna. Even the recording is perfect, unlike their early studio albums, characterized by an overly muffled sound.

The songs are all spectacular, starting from the famous "Ace Of Spades" to the wild "Bomber", from Motorhead's anthem, "Overkill", to their first track, written by Lemmy when he was still part of the band Hawkwind, namely "Motorhead".

In short, this is a live album that every metalhead should own.
