Metal Hammer 407
On December 24, Motörhead’s legendary frontman would have been 80 years old. On the 10th anniversary of his death, and his band’s 50th anniversary, we celebrate the man, the myth and the music. After Lemmy left this mortal plane, his ashes were spread around the world, so we find out how the great man lives on in bullet casings, statues and tattoos. We also ask 50 of your favourite artists – including Lzzy Hale, Kirk Hammett and Randy Blythe – to choose their favourite Motörhead songs. On the subject of legends, we exclusively share an extract from Ozzy’s brand new autobiography, Last Rites. Elsewhere in the mag, we head over to Sweden to meet Orbit Culture, one of the most exciting bands of 2025. We deep-dive into Nine Inch Nails’ accidental horny anthem Closer, bid farewell to British metal linchpins Orange Goblin, and get some life lessons from Wolfgang Van Halen. The Fred Durst- and Amy Lee-approved Dying Wish tell us how they’re making a stand against hate, and Avatar frontman Johannes Eckerström fields your questions about Insane Clown Posse, balloon animals and ska. Beyond The Black powerhouse Jennifer Haben invites us into her record collection, brat-punk Delilah Bon talks dragons, pubes and murdering innocent Sims, and Japan’s Deviloof introduce us to their visual kei-influenced, skull-fracturing deathcore. All this, plus all the essential gigs and reviews from the world of metal.
