I love Motorhead. They're simplistic, loud, obnoxious, and frequently out of tune...but when I was 18 I had the WORST crush on their drummer at the time, Philthy Animal! There's also a certain charm in such titles as "Killed By Death," "Stone Dead Forever" and "Steal Your Face." Almost as if, on some level, they were engaging in self-mockery...

Motorhead rock,but my guilty secret is.......I LOVE Slipknot.I was a metal head as a teenager in the early 80's and loved thrash and Slipknot just really appeals to me.They are just BRUTAL.

Also, Slipknot fans should do better to stay in the closet.

I use to like Motorhead, but after people/radio/tv playing Ace of Spades to death... I've lost interest. I find all Motorhead songs sound the same.

None-the-less I own 7 of their albums.

Guilty secret?! Put aside your guilt right now. Motorhead are a British institution and there's absolutely no reason to feel guilty for liking them. A fine band. Nothing wrong with a bit of rock 'n' roll played on eleven.

Count this Owl as a Motorhead fan too! Whenever I need a good laugh or a shot of adrenaline, these guys do it every time for me, especially after I've been exposed to really bad New Age/Smooth Jazz music (which I detest soooooo much!). Some fave tunes are, of course, "Ace of Spades", and also "Bomber", "Damage Case", "Eat The Rich", "Rock 'n Roll" and more!

For sheer kick-ass laughs, the first Dead Kennedys album ("Fresh Fruit for Rotting Vegetables") works really well for me too, I mean, how could you NOT laugh at hilarious kick-butt rock 'n roll gems like "Let's Lynch The Landlord", "Drug Me" and "Stealing People's Mail" and their side-splittingly hilarious rendition of "Viva Las Vegas" with a few "lyrical alterations" by Jello Biafra?

Nothing wrong with motorhead!  simplistic and loud... certainly, but also amazing.  no one could ever accuse motorhead of selling out... they've been plugging ahead with the exact same sound for 30 years!  definitely a hard rock institution.

as for slipknot.... they have a good drummer... the other 8 of them are crap.  they got too big too fast and it went to their heads, plus their fans are rabid and violent people.

Motorhead are indeed a brilliant band! Yes, a lot of their songs sound the same, but so what. So do AC/DC's, and they're amazing too.
