Big-rig head crushers such as&nbsp;<strong>&#8220;Thunder &amp; Lightning&#8221;<\/strong>&nbsp;and&nbsp;<strong>&#8220;Teach Them How To Bleed&#8221;<\/strong>&nbsp;brought such people to their knees begging for forgiveness, as the album unfurled into their toughest, leanest, meanest and most uncompromising album in aeons. Much of this came down to long-time producer&nbsp;<strong>Cameron Webb<\/strong>&nbsp;getting the band to record live at&nbsp;<strong>NRG North Hollywood<\/strong>,&nbsp;<strong>Maple Studios<\/strong>&nbsp;and&nbsp;<strong>Grandmaster<\/strong>&nbsp;in California together for the first time in the&nbsp;<strong>Kilmister<\/strong>\/<strong>Campbell<\/strong>\/<strong>Dee<\/strong>&nbsp;era, and from the crackling punk energy of&nbsp;<strong>&#8220;Electricity&#8221;<\/strong>&nbsp;to&nbsp;<strong>Brian May<\/strong>&nbsp;of&nbsp;<strong>QUEEN<\/strong>&#8216;s scintillating guest-appearance on&nbsp;<strong>&#8220;The Devil&#8221;<\/strong>, a vast wealth of aggression, attitude, and excellent songwriting was cultivated in that furious working environment.&nbsp;<strong>Phil Campbell<\/strong>&nbsp;didn&#8217;t just record possibly his finest guitars, he threw down most certainly his best solos for decades, while&nbsp;<strong>Mikkey Dee<\/strong>&#8216;s drumming found new tribal resonance with the&nbsp;<strong>MOT\u00d6RHEAD<\/strong>&nbsp;sound he had helped nurture. There was also one of&nbsp;<strong>Lemmy<\/strong>&#8216;s rawest lyrical life reflections on&nbsp;<strong>&#8220;Till The End&#8221;<\/strong>, and a cover of&nbsp;<strong>THE ROLLING STONES<\/strong>&#8216;&nbsp;<strong>&#8220;Sympathy For The Devil&#8221;<\/strong>&nbsp;which made the song feel like one of their own. One of the hidden gold-dust additions to&nbsp;<strong>&#8220;Bad Magic: Seriously Bad Magic&#8221;<\/strong>&nbsp;is&nbsp;<strong>MOT\u00d6RHEAD<\/strong>&#8216;s famous, and internationally acclaimed, version of&nbsp;<strong>David Bowie<\/strong>&#8216;s classic&nbsp;<strong>&#8220;Heroes&#8221;<\/strong>. Originally slated for inclusion on the last release only to be withdrawn at the last minute, it was a cover version which&nbsp;<strong>Lemmy<\/strong>&nbsp;had a great affection for, and as such its inclusion here is both fitting and just.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Due on February 24, 2023,&nbsp;<strong>&#8220;Bad Magic: Seriously Bad Magic&#8221;<\/strong>&nbsp;will be released on double 12-inch vinyl, CD digipak with bonus disc, limited-edition boxset, digital download and streaming.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>&#8220;Bad Magic: Seriously Bad Magic&#8221;<\/strong>&nbsp;track listing:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>01.&nbsp;<strong>Victory Or Die<\/strong><br>02.&nbsp;<strong>Thunder &amp; Lightning<\/strong><br>03.&nbsp;<strong>Fire Storm Hotel<\/strong><br>04.&nbsp;<strong>Shoot Out All Of Your Lights<\/strong><br>05.&nbsp;<strong>The Devil<\/strong><br>06.&nbsp;<strong>Electricity<\/strong><br>07.&nbsp;<strong>Evil Eye<\/strong><br>08.&nbsp;<strong>Teach Them How To Bleed<\/strong><br>09.&nbsp;<strong>Till The End<\/strong><br>10.&nbsp;<strong>Tell Me Who To Kill<\/strong><br>11.&nbsp;<strong>Choking On Your Screams<\/strong><br>12.&nbsp;<strong>When The Sky Comes Looking For You<\/strong><br>13.&nbsp;<strong>Sympathy For The Devil<\/strong><br>14.&nbsp;<strong>Heroes<\/strong><br>15.&nbsp;<strong>Bullet In Your Brain<\/strong><br>16.&nbsp;<strong>Greedy Bastards<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Live at Mt Fuji Rock Festival 2015 \u2013 Sayonara Folks!<\/strong>&nbsp;track listing:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>01.&nbsp;<strong>We Are Mot\u00f6rhead<\/strong><br>02.&nbsp;<strong>Damage Case<\/strong><br>03.&nbsp;<strong>Stay Clean<\/strong><br>04.&nbsp;<strong>Metropolis<\/strong><br>05.&nbsp;<strong>Over The Top<\/strong><br>06.&nbsp;<strong>String Theory<\/strong><br>07.&nbsp;<strong>The Chase Is Better Than The Catch<\/strong><br>08.&nbsp;<strong>Rock It<\/strong><br>09.&nbsp;<strong>Lost Woman Blues<\/strong><br>10.&nbsp;<strong>Doctor Rock<\/strong><br>11.&nbsp;<strong>Just \u2018Cos You Got The Power<\/strong><br>12.&nbsp;<strong>Going To Brazil<\/strong><br>13.&nbsp;<strong>Ace Of Spades<\/strong><br>14.&nbsp;<strong>Overkill<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>MOT\u00d6RHEAD, the iconic Godfathers of heavy metal, have unleashed a brand new video for the previously unreleased track&nbsp;&#8220;Greedy Bastards&#8221;, taken from the upcoming release&nbsp;&#8220;Bad Magic: Seriously Bad Magic&#8221;. &#8220;Greedy Bastards&#8221;\u00a0is the second rare gem found in the recording session vaults for the 23rd (and final) studio album,\u00a0&#8220;Bad Magic&#8221;, in 2015.
