Album Description

Released on April 9, 2002, "Hammered" is the sixteenth studio album by the legendary British rock band Motörhead. This album marks a significant point in the band's discography, as it was their sixth release with Steamhammer and the beginning of their distribution in North America under Sanctuary Records. Recorded in Hollywood, "Hammered" features the iconic trio of Lemmy Kilmister, Phil Campbell, and Mikkey Dee, delivering their signature blend of heavy metal, speed metal, and hard rock.

"Hammered" is a testament to Motörhead's enduring legacy, showcasing their ability to blend raw energy with melodic sensibilities. While it maintains the band's signature heavy and fast-paced style, it also introduces a more mid-paced and melodic approach compared to its predecessor, "We Are Motörhead." The album's ten tracks, including standout songs like "Walk a Crooked Mile," "Down the Line," and "Voices from the War," offer a compelling mix of aggressive riffs, powerful vocals, and memorable hooks.

Produced by Thom Panunzio, "Hammered" was rumored to be heavily influenced by the 9/11 terrorist attacks in New York, adding a layer of depth and intensity to the album's themes. Despite these influences, the album remains true to Motörhead's signature sound, delivering a powerful and unapologetic rock experience. With a duration of just 45 minutes, "Hammered" is a concise yet impactful addition to any rock fan's collection.
