Product Description
CD Description
Motorhead have never just been the best rock'n'roll band in the world. They've never just been the loudest. Or the hardest. Or the toughest. Or the bad-ass-est. No... Motorhead are also a lifestyl; a mindset, a belief, a way to live your life, a way to both survive and beat a society that sometimes seems intent on trying to grind you down.
"The World Is Yours" is written and performed by Lemmy Kilmister, Philip Campbell and Mikkey Dee in both Los Angeles, CA and Wales, with production once again by Cameron Webb, it serves to remind everyone that you should never stop questioning or critiquing a society that would surely chew you up and spit you if given half a chance. And with 10 soul-scorching testaments to the unbridled power this world-famous trio continually maintain, "The World Is Yours" delivers some of the finest, most important Motormusic yet.
On instant classics such as 'Get Back In Line', Kilmister thunders that 'The way we are is not the way we used to be my friend', and 'We are trapped in luxury, starving on parole, no-one told us who to love, we have sold our souls' , whilst on 'Brotherhood Of Man' Kilmister roars 'You cannot hide the truth from me I know what's in your heart, greed and jealousy each equal, all your days now dark'. And with the defiant, uproarious 'Rock 'n' Roll Music', Kilmister and co remind everyone that 'rock'n'roll music is the true religion' and 'rock'n'roll even gonna set you free, make the lame walk and the blind see'...
Recorded during the late spring of the year, the album's creation was thrown into turmoil by the poor health and sad eventual passing of Philip Campbell's father; the situation dictated that Philip needed to be home during some of the scheduled recording time, so Motorhead hired a studio in Wales where Campbell was able to continue working on ideas and record tracks whilst first Mikkey and Lemmy, and then just Lemmy, laid down the rest of the album in LA. But being Motorhead nothing phased them, and with "The World Is Yours," the band have triumphed over adversity to produce an absolute stormer in this, their 35th year as THE greatest, loudest and just plain goddamn coolest band around.

I'm not going to say much more than we already have a contender for best rock album of 2011. As the reviewer above said, there's nothing here to skip. Every track is excellent. Well worth buying.

Motorizer tore the top off your head. The World Is Yours pulls back the flesh and bone and shoves Motorhead's unique brand of music right where it belongs. A seamless, but yet suitably a few steps further on than its predecessors, what you have here is both barrels of Motorhead's 20th studio album right between the eyes.
As ever, it is all killer and no filler, and cliched as that might be, now, Motorhead have never delivered a duff track across those two-score albums; and there aren't many bands who can claim that!
In just 2 days of release it has hit #1 in Amazon's Hard Rock & Metal listings, so what more can be said? Just click to buy, and kill off a few more lawns!
The Limited Edition DVD has Interviews with the band talking about the album, the Get Back In Line video, and the acoustic version of Ace Of Spades. That's it!
