IN FLAMES, HARDCORE SUPERSTAR Members Pay Tribute To LEMMY With 'Ace Of Spades' Performance

December 29, 2016

Björn Gelotte of IN FLAMES joined members of HARDCORE SUPERSTAR, TROUBLEMAKERS, SCUMBAG MILLIONAIRE, HONEYMOON DISEASE, CITY SAINTS, COFFE & SNOWY SHAW and SIPHON FUEL on stage last night (Wednesday, December 28) at Sticky Fingers in Gothenburg, Sweden to perform a cover version of the MOTÖRHEAD classic "Ace Of Spades" as a tribute to that band's iconic mainman Lemmy Kilmister. You can watch video footage of Gelotte's appearance below.

Lemmy, who celebrated his 70th birthday on December 24, 2015, learned two days later that he was afflicted with an aggressive form of cancer. He died on December 28, 2015, at his home in Los Angeles.

The MOTÖRHEAD frontman had dealt with several health issues over the past few years, including heart trouble, forcing him to cut back on his famous smoking and Jack Daniels habits.

The band canceled a number of shows last year, although they did manage to complete one final European tour on December 11, 2015.
