MojoApr 20, 2011Their 21st studio album. Not so dissimilar to the other 20. [Feb. 2011, p. 108]
-
Jan 27, 2011There are a couple of lesser chug-alongs, but mostly it's as good as anything in the Motörhead canon.
-
Q MagazineFeb 3, 2011The World Is Yours is the usual drill: fast, frenetic and very, very loud, with Lemmy belching his messages of defiance and rock'n'roll redemption like a raging, fire and brimstone preacher. Who would want it any other way? [Feb. 2011, p. 124]

Jan 27, 2011The World Is Yours won't set the world alight with insightful lyrics or experimentation, but that isn't what we've signed up for. This is an LP that just does not let up from the get go.
-
Jan 27, 2011Nothing Earth-shattering, but enough solid riffs and spiffy one-liners that won't seem too out-of-place during a headlining set.
-
Feb 23, 2011It's a curtain call, a salute to the masters by the master himself, and frankly, as moderate as The World Is Ours might be, one cannot deny that what Lemmy says, goes.
-
Jan 27, 2011Nary a tippy toe strays from the well-trodden path; it's as if Lemmy and the boys spent every couple of years locked in a studio with their own discography and no outside noises that might besmirch the purity of their brand. There are occasional hints of self-awareness.
