1916/March Or Die

2 classic mid period motorhead albums for less than a tenner! Excellent value!

These are both really good. 1916 is quality from start to finish. March or Die has its detractors but despite the band fairly obviously going after radio play it's still full of great songs.

Excellent

A great album which somehow I missed when first released.A lot of good tracks on here showing off how good Motorhead are when it comes to writing songs

Very good

Brilliant cd's . Reached me in perfect condition.

arrived within time if your into motorhead you probably will enjoy this but march or die is more accessible and would be a good introduction to motorhead.

Motorhead is one of those bands that everyone heard of, but noone really knows their work so much. They are living in shadows of their legendary album trio (overkill, bomber and ace of spades)without some really good reason. True, albums from classic line up are great and legendary stuff, but motorhead really never made anything that's not so good to be forgoten or unnoticed.Every true and serious motorhead fan will have a lot of praise for their classic "1916" which got them nomination for grammy which they lost because of metallica's 1991 monster hit album. 1916 is monster album full of classic and some of motorhead's finest songs including rockabilly influenced "i'm so bad, baby i don't care" and to this day setlist favourite "going to brazil". It's also one of album that shows lemmy's soft side in the great powerballad "love me forever" and closing (anti)war themed title song. There are no filler track on this album and it's great example of loudest, fastest and dirtiest form of good old rock 'n' roll, just classic bastardized rock'n'roll, lemmy at one of his finest moments!Next to 1916 we also have next MH album "March or die" which is kinda usually considered as one of worst MH records together with "Snake Bite Love". March or die is much underrated album because of MH's high standards, it's not something that could be called calssic, but hey, it ain't so bad niether!!! It's kinda progressing into some more commercial sound that started with 1916, but motorhead really never went SO much into mainstream. If you want mainstream this is maximum what you can get from this Rock'N'Roll machine. I personally adore all motorhead records since i'm huge fan, but if i've had to be objective because of people who aren't so familiar with band i'd give it 3 stars, not so great but still has some killer tracks like "name in vain", "you better run" and one of Lemmy's soft-sided songs "too good to be true" which is kinda in the vein of "all for you" from "rock'n'roll" album. Still, album worth of hearing.So in this package you get 2 albums in jewel cases packed together in slipcase. One classic and one "meh" motorhead album (motorhead's "meh" = very solid album by any other band)for almost same price as one of them alone, so go and get it, you won't be sorry!!!
