Motorhead 'Stage Fright' album

Lemmy Kilmister explains his unabatedly passionate relationship with his own band and its varied history as follows: “Motörhead is not only my job, it’s my whole life.” The legendary group is about to celebrate its 30th anniversary this year, looking back on a unique career. Motörhead have sparkled on the world’s most prestigious stages, graced countless important music magazine covers and released numerous rock classics. The fact that this band counts among the most authentic and charismatic rock acts world-wide is without a doubt due to the never-tiring enthusiasm of Lemmy, who continues to live his own visions of musical earthiness irrespective of trends and fashions. This latest Motörhead release, entitled Stage Fright, is a double DVD and not merely a rock’n’roll statement chiselled into stone, but also an extraordinary look at the band’s life.

Stage Fright was recorded during a show at the Phillipshalle in Düsseldorf on December 7, 2004. The set features 20 songs from the entire Motörhead history, including the classics Overkill, Ace Of Spades and Iron Fist. The show was shot with 23 high definition cameras under the direction of Sven Offen. As a special bonus, there is an interactive DVD check with Motörhead, with the three musicians contributing lots of interesting comments. The second DVD reveals previously unreleased insights, not only into the inner life of the band, but also into the rock’n’roll circus in general. There are interviews with band mastermind Lemmy, guitarist Phil Campbell and drummer Mikkey Dee, as well as the road crew who talk about life on tour. Viewers get a rare chance to watch the roadies doing their work, listen in to the sound check, meet the band’s cook and accompany their entourage on the road. There is also an L.A. special, fans’ comments and other special features. The icing on the cake is the DVD Rom part with the Life´s A Bitch realtone for your mobile, Motörhead wallpaper for your PC and mobile, photos from the WrestleMania show in Los Angeles, and an extensive discography. All in all, Stage Fright offers over four hours of playing time (!!!) and comes in DTS 96/24, Dolby digital 5.1 and AC3 stereo sound.
