  • In todays video I'm going to rank Motörhead's full discography. Motörhead is a British heavy metal band. They formed after Lemmy Kilmister left his previous band Hawkwind. The classic Motorhead lineup of Lemmy, Phil Taylor and Fast Eddie Clarke recorded some of the most popular heavy metal records of all time, including Overkill, Ace of Spades, Bomber and Iron Fist. The classic lineup fell apart but Lemmy and Motörhead continued on and their career stretched from the mid 70s up until the passing of Lemmy in 2015. So in todays video we're going to rank Motorheads full discography, from the worst to the best. Enjoy!

    Much appreciated. I remember listening to the debut album back in 1977. It was far apart from everthing else that counted as hard rock and metal. Overkill just blew my mind. Probably my favourite album. We will never see their like again.

    For a band with this large of a catalog, Motorhead was really quite consistent. Their albums mainly went from classic to pretty decent. They really had no embarrassing missteps in their discography, and very few legacy bands of that era can say the same.

  • @Anderson_Araujo666
    @Anderson_Araujo666 Год назад +21

    My favorites are:
    1 - Ace of Spades
    2 - Overkill
    3 - Bomber
    4 - Another Perfect Day (nice to see you like that album too, some people disliked it because of the more melodic approach but I think it's a great album, among their best for sure.)

  • @fredlaroche6969

    Glad to see Inferno so high! It is my favourite album from Motorhead. Something just really works for me on this album. It's crushingly heavy and the production is pretty good. The band is on fire here.
    Great list as always!

  • @Wanderer_1877
    @Wanderer_1877 Год назад +11

    Motörhead is my number one favourite band ever, and I think it's basically a nice list. It avoids the snobbish trap of not recognizing the post 1981 stuff 😁. I think most of their 90s albums, and especially the Cameron Webb produced albums beginning with Inferno, are excellent. I never could make a full ranking (though I own all the studio and the official live albums on CD), but my TOP 3 in no particular order:
    - Overkill
    - Another Perfect Day
    - Inferno
    😎👍

    4- Iron Fist
    5- Another Perfect Day
    6- Sacrifice
    7- Orgasmatron
    8- Rock 'n Roll
    9- Bastards
    10 - Inferno

    Whoaaaa, hold your horses. I love “On Parole,” and think it truly shows the birth of Motörhead, and their transition away from Hawkwind. It’s oddly groovy but still kicks quite a bit; and almost feels punk. I love this album and would put it near the top of my list. And I’m a guy who usually listens to extreme black metal and death metal

    • @RuthlessMetalYT
      @RuthlessMetalYT  Год назад +3

      I think it has too much of that hawkwind vibe and not enough metal, plus it's like a worse version of their debut album so for me it's quite unnecessary.

    • @blauth
      @blauth Год назад +3

      @@RuthlessMetalYT it’s funny - I kind of think that the revised debut album is almost like one of those unnecessary re-recorded albums like Exodus’ one . . . But to each their own. I do miss the “White Line Fever,” though. Luckily I have both versions in deluxe format :)

    Good list. I don't agree with every ranking, but then again, I don't have to! Thank you for this list. My top pics are...
    1. Bomber - The album has a western feel and a kind of swing with songs like "Lawman". One of my go-to albums.
    2. Ace of Spades - In my opinion, as close to a perfect album as Motorhead ever made. Just dirty and raw throughout.
    3. Another Perfect Day - I think Robbo's technical brilliance pushed Lemmy and Philthy to play at the top of their game. Sonically their best too.
    4. We Are Motorhead - One of their best "metal" albums. Even One More Fecking Time is a slow burning heavy hitter, but I don't like GSTQ.
    5. Inferno - Such a heavy hitter from start to finish. And "Whorehouse Blues" lets us down easy. Damn good one.
    They were Motorhead and they made rock and roll. And there won't be another like them. Rest In Peace them all.

    This is a tough ranking to do with a band who has a ton of really awesome albums. Even some albums that are ranked lower are still really awesome, but they have other albums that are better than others. That happens with most bands, but at least they're been making some awesome music.

    Fans - Give the last two studio albums, “Aftershock” and “Bad Magic” another listen. Lemmy truly gives you his take on life, his advice, his lessons. No excuses, he lived his life pleasing himself, he did it his way, and louder and better than everyone else. Quality songwriting and musicianship on these final albums. I LOVE THEM.

    Good to see the 1916 album getting some support. While I was aware of the band beforehand, 1916 was the first album from Motorhead I got, and also the first time I saw them live, with Judas Priest and Alice Cooper in '91. There was some "experimentation" on this album, but it actually WORKED. "Love Me Forever" and "Nightmare / The Dreamtime" are both dark, atmospheric tracks that stack up with the band's best.
    Also, "Shoot You In the Back" from "Ace of Spades" is one of my favorite "deep cuts" from Motorhead.

    Great list! Difficult task. I did this awhile ago on paper and it wasn't easy. Also haven't heard every single album from beginning to end. Nevertheless, great band. 1916 was my introduction to the band in the early 90s. I liked that album a lot I remember. My very favorites today are Another Perfect day, Inferno, 1916, Overkill, Orgasmatron, Aftershock and Ace of Spades. So many great songs from such a legendary band....cheers 🤘🍻

  • @kenbadman4603
    @kenbadman4603 Год назад +2

    Rank em all is back and life is good! IMO your list is pretty much spot on. I personally would have 1916 a little higher though, as that album was my first introduction to motorhead and the first time I got to see them live. No Voices in the Sky is probably their most underrated song. Cheers!

    Motorhead is far and away my favorite band, and this is a good ranking. I could quibble with a few things, o' course (I love On Parole, although I know that's personal and it's fair to consider it their worst), but there will always be quibbles. Overall I think you did a good job with a tough task. There are no bad Motorhead albums. Like AC/DC, you have better and you have worse, but they never really let you down.
    And Another Perfect Day is a strange one. When I first got it I was disappointed in it, but over time it's become one of my favorite Motorhead albums. The songwriting on that one was especially strong, & Brian Robertson's guitar works is great, even if it's more melodic than typical Motorhead. My fave moment, in the title track, where Robertson plays a really pretty, delicate intro, and then Lemmy's huge ugly bass comes in and just stomp-stomp-stomps on it! it's like watching the "Bambi Vs. Godzilla" cartoon. Always makes me laugh. :)

    My bests are (not in order): Sacrifice, Another perfect day, Orgasmatron, We are Motorhead (probably their last good LP together Inferno) and Overnight sensation. Also I really like No sleep 'til Hammersmith, one of the best rock/metal live at all.

    Motörhead is, bar none, my favorite band of all. Ironically enough, The Wörld is Yours and On Parole were the first two Motörhead albums I’d ever heard, so they’ve always had a soft spot in my heart. Though I confess there are better ones, I still dig them.

  • @BrianFoss206
    @BrianFoss206 Год назад

    Good list - the 1st album I bought was Iron Fist, and then Another Perfect Day, which was like my favorite album for years and years. I lived in Anchorage Alaska in the early 1980s so finding the first 4 albums in any afforadable way kept them out of my reach - so yeah, NO REMORSE was super important to me in the 1980s.
    With 4 new songs i count it in my top 10 of Motorhead albums.
    FYI - the only album by them I don't like is March Or Die - the obvious attempt by the record label to make MH commerical is a painful listen for me.

      @@RuthlessMetalYT Oh it's definitely one of their best tracks! Sex and Outrage, America and Bang to Rights are killer tracks too, and there are a few more that I like. Maybe I'm being unnecessarily judgemental towards it because of where it sits within their discography, but the album as a whole just feels on a level below the three albums that came before it and the two that came after. I'm not saying it's a bad album, but I'd probably place it somewhere around the 10-12th place.

    I know Motorhead is an influential metal band, but I didn't get to listen to much of their albums. I can check this to see which could be recommended and which could be bad.
    Asides their classics, I once considered Inferno to be among their finest. Overall, not their best but it's still a good and rocking Motorhead record.
    Sure Ace of Spades is a bonafide Motorhead album, I actually consider Overkill to be their best classic album before the more well-known Ace of Spades. What it is makes it a precursor to what would be Thrash metal.
    I did listen to Hammered and it's actually the first full Motorhead album I listened. The song Brave New World is awesome and is also the first Motorhead song I ever heard, the rest aren't that memorable.
    Let me say, hail to Lemmy! You got to admire him being true to being heavy and rock n roll, keeping true to his art and musical integrity despite the different musical climates.

  • @danneeson7056

    Recommended Lemmy albums : Sam Gopal album Escalator from 1969 Lem plays guitar and vocals, Hawkwind's famous Silver Machine single and albums Doremi Faso Latido from 1972, the live double lp Space Ritual from 1973, Hall Of The Mountain Grill from 1974 and Warrior On The Edge Of Time from 1975. All Motorhead albums, singles and live bootlegs from 1975 to 1986 (Orgasmatron) are essential listening. After that they start to become a brand not a band , too samey mc samey, although the live shows were good till early 2000's. Once Lem started wearing a hat ,you knew the best years were behind you.
