Motörhead have shared one other outtake from the recording of their twenty second album, ‘Bad Magic’, a swampy and incendiary slow-burner titled ‘Greedy Bastards’.
The track opens with a spoken-word passage from late frontman Lemmy Kilmister, who makes it explicitly clear how he feels about politicians: “You’ve never seen a politician who’s kept his promise,” he says. “You by no means noticed a politician who wasn’t a liar. Not even the Greens. It’s all bullshit, man. It’s all management. They need you to do what they are saying as a result of their phrase is healthier than that different man, proper? It’s not!
“You should be sufficient in yourself, and you should do the best you can do. You should make the world a better place for having been in it, yeah? Not suck from it. You should make it better. You should give to it. All politicians are assholes!”

‘Greedy Bastards’ is one in all two beforehand unheard songs (the opposite being ‘Bullet In Your Brain’) that may function on a deluxe reissue of ‘Bad Magic’. Dubbed ‘Bad Magic: Seriously Bad Magic’, the file is due out on February 24, and also will function a canopy of ‘Heroes’ by David Bowie, in addition to a full recording of Motörhead’s set on the 2015 Fuji Rock pageant.
Last month, former Motörhead drummer Mikkey Dee paid tribute to Lemmy on the seventh anniversary of his demise; the legendary frontman handed away in December of 2015, simply two days after revealing that he had prostate most cancers. He was 70 years outdated. The final surviving member of the unique Motörhead line-up, guitarist ‘Fast’ Eddie Clarke, died in 2018 after being handled for pneumonia.
Also final 12 months, an enormous new statue of Lemmy was unveiled at French steel pageant Hellfest.
