RIP

 

[The Ozzman]

Yeah this sucks. It's on Blabbermouth. He apparently had cancer...

 

[King Richard]

I'm more surprised he lived this long. Well played my good sir.

RIP

A hard rockin, heavy metal, no compromising mother fucker until the very end. I'm not sure anyone could ask for more.

I thought the same thing. Kept going until he croaked.

I hadn't realised he was 70! Still, that's pretty young these days. It's strange that metal has now been around so long that some of its old guard are now dying. I guess there's going to be a lot more of that over the next ten years or so.

R.I.P. Lemmy your legend will never ever die!

The first thing I thought of when I heard of his passing was these 3 beauties

Wait What? I just saw him in concert twice in the past year or two. He seemed skinnier than usual but otherwise fine and energetic...

Metal has lost a legend. I'm putting on their Overkill album.

 

[Baroque]

Never changed his sound until he died. What a badass.

 

[JontRevolting]

That happened way too quick. But I guess that's Lemmy and the band to a T. Live fast die. RIP

Lemmy is a goddamn legend. He never stopped kicking ass for 45 fucking years, and there aren't very many people who can claim that. I'll be blasting Inferno tonight...my favorite Motorhead album, 30 years into their career.

 

[EspaDa]

Devastating news, I just ordered Bad Magic like 2 days ago...It's a shame I have never been given a chance to see him in concert.

that's the way I like it baby
I don't wanna live forever

 

[Satanstoenail]

I can't believe it. I only saw Motörhead in August this year in Spain. The world has lost a true legend today. RIP.

 

[PrincessHades]

R.I.P Lemmy. The first badass to reach 70.

Yeah its really one of their best I feel. This also touches on something crucial to Lemmy and Motorhead's legacy. 22 full-length albums since 1977 and the longest gap between two albums was the 4 years between Rock 'n' Roll in 1987 and 1916 in 1991. That's pretty incredible when you think of how many bands that formed way later and take 6 or so years to get their asses in gear to even begin writing new material. Lemmy's work ethic was second to fucking none. Write, record, tour, repeat. Plus non-stop gigging in between. He lived it.
