Classic Motorhead 15 Mar 2007
Format:Audio CD
This could be Motorhead's finest hour - if you like your 80's rock heavier than hell. This is the best line-up, the classic 3 piece with Fast Eddie and Philthy Phil Taylor. Classic 'Head gig fave's like "Stone Dead Forever" and "Over the Top" line up with "Dead men smell toe nails!" - as Lemmy introduced it at The Bingley Hall on the Bomber tour in 1980. It could be argued that "Overkill" is a better album, but "Bomber" really put the Motor boys on the rock map. They toured heavily all the time, but the Bomber tour was spectacular with the Bomber suspended above the stage. It nearly killed them one gig when it broke it's moorings in Germany, but that's another story. Great album, great band.

By U Dick VINE™ VOICE
Format:Audio CD
"Bomber" is a bit of a strange album. It falls between the two most revered Motorhead studio albums "Overkill" and "Ace of spades" and other than the title track and "Dead men tell no tales" gets largely forgotten about when the band play live. There are a lot of strong tracks but the sound is pretty wierd. Lemmy`s bass is less distorted and more trebley than usual and often "Fast" Eddie Clarke`s guitar lines play around the more dominant bass, instead of straight ahead heads down riffing. Philthy`s drums are also a bit quieter than normal. The cream of the crop here are "Stone dead forever", "Dead men tell no tales", the creepy "Sweet revenge" and the immortal title track. Also "Fast" Eddie cuts his only album lead vocal on the bluesy "Step down". There are a few fillers, "Talking head" and "Sharpshooter" being more worthy than memorable. The second disc contains a bunch of out-takes that aren`t really essential and the brilliant live tracks from the excellent "Golden years" EP which was released between this and "Ace of spades". Like "Another perfect day" and "Orgasmatron", (very) slightly different from the usual Motorhead album.

Having lived with the original 1991 CD issue (CLACD 227) of this album for the past few years I've finally decided to 'upgrade'. And what a disappointment I found the remaster to be. Sure, the bonus tracks are great, but the sound....

Compared side by side with my earlier disc this one is MUCH louder. But because of the modern compression applied to achieve that boost in volume (and possibly some other digital tampering) it's less "natural" sounding than the original CD. I can't crank it up without it rapidly getting harsh on my ears. Yet I have no problem pumping the 1991 disc up loud, and loving it.

I'd say to anyone who wants to be able to enjoy their Motorhead at high volume, seek out the original Castle discs. If your ears are used to modern remasters those early CDs will probably at first sound a bit too quiet or tame (lacking the artifically induced "punch" common to many remasters), but crank them up loud and you'll soon see how they can be a more enjoyable and rewarding listening experience.

As for the music itself, I probably wouldn't recommend Bomber to a Motorhead beginner. It does contain some truly classic Motorhead moments (such as the title track and Stone Dead Forever), but taken as a whole it may seem a bit of a hit-and-miss collection of songs to the uninitiated.

My advice? Buy it after Ace Of Spades or Overkill, and before Iron Fist.

not the best
I loved this one when it came out, but listening to it again 20+ years later, I think there are quite a lot of fillers on it. Read more

'QUIET' Motorhead!!!!!!!
I wouldn't really recommend this CD. It is the original line up, but they seem to be playing a relaxed, even laid back type of rock n roll. Read more

An often forgotten classic
I agree with the reviewer below; this is an underrated album. It's little surprise really, considering that it was released in-between their classics "Overkill" and "Ace of Spades"... Read more

H-bomb, not small bomb
The title track is one of my personal top 5 tracks, the pure weight of these songs hits you like an anvil. Throe this into your CD player, crank up the volume, sit back and enjoy. Read more
