LEMMY: 10 Songs Done For Solo Album

July 13, 2011

MOTRHEAD's legendary frontman Ian "Lemmy" Kilmister tells Billboard.com that he has recorded 10 songs for a solo album he's been working on for the past seven years. Guests so far include Dave Grohl (FOO FIGHTERS, ex-NIRVANA),REVEREND HORTON HEAT, THE DAMNED and SKEW SISKIN, and Lemmy is hoping to finish it soon for possible release in 2012. "It's good. It goes all kinds of directions," he says. "It's either very inconsistent or very eclectic, depending how you look at it."

In a 2004 interview with Metal Maniacs magazine, Lemmy stated about his solo CD, " I've got two [songs recorded] with SKEW SISKIN [reportedly titled 'Stand Upon The Mountain' and 'Don't Matter To Me' Ed.], which are fucking great! And I've got two with the REVEREND HORTON HEAT, some good psycho-metal-billy! I've got a track from Dave Grohl that I'm still sorting out and two tracks from THE DAMNED [including a cover of THE DAMNED's 'Neat Neat Neat']. That's with Dave and The Captain! Some good stuff."

It was previously reported that guitarist Jim Voxx of SKEW SISKIN, who own Berlin's Monongo studios, was producing/recording and mixing two of the songs for the project. A full horn section was recorded, a saxophone player, a blues piano player and a lot more.
