MOTÖRHEAD 2013 - One of the biggest years yet!

Thu, 18 Apr 2013 09:47:59 GMT

New album

The Grammy-award winners have been in the recording studio working on their next album, scheduled for release later this year. It will be the follow-up to the highly successful CD, The Wörld Is Yours, the blistering, multi-formated (DVD, CD, Vinyl, Blu-Ray) "The Wörld Is Ours-Volume 1 - Everywhere Further Than Everyplace Else" and "The Wörld Is Ours - Volume 2 - Anyplace Crazy As Anywhere Else". Written and performed by Lemmy Kilmister, Phil Campbell and Mikkey Dee, the new record is being made with longtime producer Cameron Webb, who also worked on "The Wörld Is Yours", "Motörizer", "Kiss Of Death" and "Inferno". The new album continues a worldwide addiction to the Motörhead sound and lifestyle which saw their last several releases break both the band's own sales records and the Billboard Top 100 chart.

VH1 Classic - Behind the Music

VH1 Classic is back with a new lineup of the five-time Emmy award-nominated documentary series “Behind the Music.” This season honors the
classic rock artists whose heart-wrenching riffs and ear-shattering screams changed music history forever. The Motörhead episode premieres
Saturday, April 20th at 9 PM ET/PT in the US.
This is the first all-original Behind the Music Remastered episode, and what story's more compelling then that of Lemmy Kilmister and Motörhead.
From his start as an English working-class man with big dreams, Kilmister made his way to the top to become one of the most feared and respected
men in rock ‚n' roll. This episode features all-new original interviews with rock legends Ozzy Osborne, Dave Grohl, Slash, and Metallica's Lars Ulrich
and Robert Trujillo, as well as interviews with the current line-up of Motörhead. The previous line-up of “Fast” Eddie Clarke and Phil "Filthy Animal" Taylor
also make appearances.

Tour 2013

Being the true road warriors they are, Motörhead will kick off their worldwide live assault with festivals in Mexico, then off to Europe for a major headline
tour and festivals beginning in May and culminating with the HUGE Wacken Festival in Germany in August to a sold-out crowd of 80,000.

Skid Row - New Members of the UDR Family

Wed, 17 Apr 2013 11:31:34 GMT

With songs like "Youth Gone Wild", "I Remember You" and "18 And Life" they wrote Milestones in the history of rock music and the soundtrack for an entire generation.
Then it was quiet a long time around the guys from Jersey. Now they are back with renewed energy, to build on the earlier successes. We at UDR are pleased and proud to be able to work together with them.

With the new release "United World Rebellion" SKID ROW now closes the gap that remained open a long time after the release of "Slave To The Grind". An unusual concept makes it possible to provide the fans for a long time with brand new songs: "United World Rebellion" will be released in three chapters that will appear in the course of a year. "Chapter I" comes as a 5-track digipack plus 2 bonus songs together with a collectors box for all three chapters. This type of release plan supports the creative process of the band and facilitates a "continuous supply" of fans with new music, without years of waiting for a new album. And you can hear it in every note of the production, that this idea is brilliant. With strong songs and irrepressible joy a legend returns.

Johnny, Snake, Rachel, Scotti & Rob - Welcome to the UDR family!
