Define "metal".

Haha also in listening to a song called follow the howls of wolves right now.

Well, you're fucked now.

There'll be a knock at the door.  Go out the back window.  Run.

Balls!  Dio wrote a song called "Lock Up The Wolves" which is Metal as fuck!

...And when you open the door, Lemmy will be there in a cowboy hat & sunglasses, holding up a sign that says "YOU KNOW WHAT YOU DID WRONG."

But by then, of course, it will be far, far too late.

That's a pretty cool photo- except I think Bruce Dickinson would look way hairier than that shirtless.

That's a very brash guitar tone.

They would later go all hippy and total 70s groove-stoner-fest, but man they were banging out the heaviest shit on record in the early 90s.

Metal is Lemmy.  Lemmy is metal.  Anything else is judged - harshly - by how far away from Lemmy it may be.

Today's "metal"? 

DO YOU THINK YOU'D EVER HEAR LEMMY SING ABOUT A WIZARD'S DREAM?  FUCK NO, AND HE'D KILL YOU WITH HIS MOLE IF YOU EVER SUGGESTED IT.

Prior to Lemmy, Sabbath sang about wizards and were the inspiration of a lot if not all of metal. Hell their motto was scare the hell out of hippies. Loud, doom, gloom, and heavy as fuck (oh and Satan of course).

Sry I just find motor head to be the one hit wonder of metal. Other than the "Ace of spades" no one under the age of fifty can name another song and for a good reason.

This of course does not make Lemmy less of a Metal God or the poster child for hard and angry. (and mole removal)

I'm pretty sure if you said that to his face he'd chop you up into powder and snort you. Especially considering that this is Lemmy's default method of interacting with physical matter.

You know, actually, if you've seen the Lemmy documentary (which I assume airs on VH1 Classic fairly regularly) he's actually a bit more of a softy compared to the popular persona he's had over the years.  Particularly when it comes to his son.  He also seems to be something of a hoarder.


He's still a metal god, of course, with the likes of Halford, Dio, Iommi, etc., but he's definitely VERY human (with human vulnerabilities, which to me makes him MORE metal ) underneath the mythology.

That's the stupidest thing I've heard said ever, this week.

I agree and this...

I love how none of those were on the Ace of Spades album, from which I could reference extensively.
