40th Anniversary 180g 3LP Celebrating The Iconic, Game Changing 1980 Album!
Original Album Half-Speed Mastered From Original Master Tapes!
Includes Previously Unreleased 'Live From Belfast' Album!
"Ace Of Spades" - the title track of Motörhead's 1980 iconic, game changing album isn't just one of the greatest hard rock songs ever written - it has truly become a lifestyle anthem for several generations of rockers, metalheads, punks, bikers, athletes, rebels, outcasts and freethinkers all around the world. Few songs in modern history can instantly ignite the adrenaline of music fans the way the song's opening dirty bass riff and drum roll can. From zero to 100 mph in a matter of seconds. That speaker-destroying opening riff is unstoppable. And the song altered the course of hard rock...forever.
Upon its release in 1980, the Ace Of Spades album was nothing short of a gamechanger for all forms of hard rock. Like lightning in a bottle, it perfectly captured everything great about hard rock, heavy metal and punk, amped it all up to 11, and came racing out of the gates at what felt like a million miles an hour. Pushing at every musical boundary, nothing was harder, nothing was faster, and certainly nothing was louder.
The Ace Of Spades 3LP set includes: The Ace Of Spades album brand new half speed master created from the original tapes for optimal speaker smashing dynamic range; Pressed on 180g heavyweight vinyl; Double live album of a newly unearthed, previously unreleased concert, recorded at Whitla Hall, Belfast on December 23, 1981; 20 page bookpack that includes the story of Ace Of Spades told through previously unpublished interviews with the people that were there; Never before seen photos and rare memorabilia; Original song lyrics.
Ace of Spades rightly deserves its legacy as a classic. There's no debating that
