In honor of the new platform I figure we start off with a classic. The Fourth studio album by British rock band Motörhead, released in October 1980 via Bronze Records. It is the band's most commercially successful album, peaking at number four on the UK Albums Chart and reaching gold status in the UK by March 1981.

  • Brilliant album that takes the attitude of Hawkwind and Cranks the amps. Makes me want to chain smoke while driving too fast. The production can be a bit rough at times but adds to the charm of a gritty record.

  • Got to see them in like ~06. Was my first "big" concert outside of little punk shows.

    It was outside and the sound was questionable, but they were still awesome.
