GMD Poll: Motörhead's Discography Ranked

[crimsonfloyd]

It's about an album a day or 6 albums a week to listen to them all before the cut-off. Quite doable considering most of their albums are on the short side.

If anyone's got a little time to kill.....



Obviously don't agree with everything he says, but found it entertaining.

 

[Omni]

1. Overkill
2. Iron Fist
3. Bomber
4. Ace of Spades
5. Another Perfect Day
6. Motörhead

I'll need to spend time with the rest of them, but I'm fairly confident that this order will remain consistent at the end.

 

[Dazed and Brutal]

Tentative list:

1. Overkill
2. 1916
3. Bomber
4. Ace of Spades
5. Orgasmatron
6. Iron Fist

 

[Slammed]

Top 10 was pretty easy for me, from 11-19 are a bit interchangeable and the last two for me really weren't great albums. Be interested too see how others doing the full list rate them.


1. Ace of Spades (1980)
2. 1916 (1991)
3. March ör Die (1992)
4. Rock n' Roll (1987)
5. Orgamatron (1986)
6. Overkill (1979)
7. After Shock (2013)
8. Motörhead (1977)
9. Bastards (1993)
10. Bomber (1979)
11. Another Perfect Day (1983)
12. Iron Fist (1982)
13. Motörizer (2008)
14. We are Motörhead (2000)
15. Inferno (2004)
16. Sacrifice (1995)
17. Kiss of Death (2006)
18. Snake Bite Love (1998)
19. Hammered (2002)
20. Overnight Sensation (1996)
21. The Wörld is Yours (2010)
22. Bad Magic (2015)

Bad Magic last? Fuck, that's harsh.

 

[Slammed]

Bad Magic last? Fuck, that's harsh.

Not at all, something has to come last and for me that album never resonated. I even prefer the posthumous covers album to Bad Magic.

I'm gonna give a one-week warning on this poll since the discography is massive. A number of you have lists that are not long enough. If you want your vote to count, you need to list at least 11 albums. I don't want to calculate the results with less than 10 members voting. Right now there are 6 valid votes. I'm gonna vote before it's over, so if at least 3 of you could get to 11, it would be awesome.

 

[Talos of Atmora]

I'll finish mine up soon. Thanks for the heads up.

Rough discography. No flat out bad albums, but more than 50% of these just rehash the same ideas with little to no variation. There's at least 25 years of mediocrity in this discography. I'm not surprised this has received so few valid lists.

Anyways, 24 hour warning. If you need an extension, please let me know, otherwise I'm closing it tomorrow.

The search function isn't working for me (not sure if it's a site problem or a "me" problem), so I can't add quotes at the moment.
