One of 28 Episodes of this series produced by Eagle Rock Films, this film tells the story of a “fear no-one” band of Brits who built a new wave of heavy metal out of the crumbling ruins of punk and punched and sound blasted their way through half a century of 24/7 Babylon, led by their fearsome “warts and all” vocalist and bass player Lemmy Kilmister.

 

Their musical and personal journey has been punctuated by a succession of fatal tragedies that would have stopped most bands in their tracks like a slammed metal door. But this is Motorhead – they don’t do “stopping”.
