    Lyrically, beating the odds and ultra-violence remain fecund topics for Lemmy. [Sep 2015, p.86]

    The album isn’t radically different from the five other records Motörhead have made with Webb since Inferno, in 2004.

However, Bad Magic was the strongest album the band had put out in a while - it's that little bit more memorable, self-reflective, grittier, nastier, which made the album a fitting end to the band's career, though none of us really knew that at the time. We miss you, Lemmy. Full Review »

    Bad Magic by Motörhead. A german review.
    Nicht schlecht. R.I.P. Lemmy. Das dein letztes Werk ein solcher Triumphzug wird hätte wohl niemand
    Bad Magic by Motörhead. A german review.
    Nicht schlecht. R.I.P. Lemmy. Das dein letztes Werk ein solcher Triumphzug wird hätte wohl niemand erwartet. Ein letztes Mal spielen die Jungs um Ian Kilminster groß auf... sehr groß.
    Sogar das Rolling Stones Cover Sympathy For The Devil haut einen um.
    In Topform und doch dem Tod so nah. So traurig: 10/10
