Words by Anselm Anderson
The legendary hellraisers Motorhead recently released the live album Louder Than Noise-Live In Berlin via Silver Lining Music on April 23rd. The performance was recorded on December 5th, 2012 in front of 12,000 fans at the Berlin Velodrome as part of the Kings of The Road tour. The Lineup for this special occasion featured the longest reigning in the band's history with the late "Lemmy" Kilmister, guitarist Phil Campbell and drummer Mikkey Dee. The concert was produced by the much-revered producer Herwig Meyszner ( Exodus, Kreator, Saxon).
The album delivers twelve tracks of raucous rock 'n' roll, destined to blow your speakers out. The bone-rattling "I Know How to Die" opens proceedings with Lemmy declaring "WE ARE MOTORHEAD" to thunderous applause. The anthemic "Damage Case" continues festivities, alongside the rousing "Over The Top". Motorhead always knew how to play good old-fashioned rock with a raw edge. This is captured profoundly, as you can hear how it resonates with the audience. Lemmy plays the affable frontman full of charm and wit, interacting with fans and sharing banter with the band.
Other Highlights include an awe-inspiring guitar solo by Mr.Campbell on "String Theory". The rumbling basslines from Lemmy on "Rock It", and a drum solo by Mikkey Dee on " The One To Play The Blues", felt like it would never end. The album is completed by the appearance of "Some Friends" Anthrax on the menacing "Overkill".
Overall, Louder Than Noise... is a self-declared statement from a band that has been doing it for over 40 years. Motorhead produced another reminder of how good they were. So prepare your stereos for another bruising ...and turn it up loud!
