About this Artist

Editorial Reviews

No matter how many years the band toils on, Lemmy Kilmister refuses to change the basic hard and fast rules of Motörhead. Usually, that's a plus, since nothing quite compares to Motörhead roaring ahead at full blast, but occasionally it can result in an undistinguished album. Snake Bite Love is one of those. There isn't necessarily anything wrong with the record, as it offers a solid set of blistering, heavy rockers that race by at breakneck speed, but it doesn't add any new twists to the formula or have particularly memorable songs. Snake Bite Love sounds fine as it's playing, but very little of it leaves a lasting impression. Many members of the group's cult will probably find it worth a listen, but those who only like Motörhead's classic '70s and '80s output will find it a bit of a chore.

May 16, 2008: If you want a no-frills, straight ahead rock & roll album, this is a great one to put on! I remember when this came out, critics were rather harsh, and some still are. But this is one of the few albums I've always been able to put on and listen to from start to finish. "Love for Sale" is a humorous look at the sex book/toy/film business, and "Dogs of War" is one of Motorhead's better heavy tracks. If this album has any downside, it is that "Assassin" sounds like a clone of "Sacrifice". There is a a surprising amount of variety on this album, with something for every Motorhead fan. It may not be the band's absolute best effort, but it is a damn good album.
