Released in 1986, Orgasmatron was recorded by the Motorhead line-up of Lemmy, Phil Campbell, Würzel and Pete Gill. The record marked a heavier direction for the band while still holding onto the speed and rawness that defined their earlier work.
While the production of the record was a cause of much debate overtime from band and fan alike, it features key Motorhead set heavyweights including “Orgasmatron”, “Deaf Forever” and “Built For Speed”, and has gone on to become one of the most respected releases in the Motörhead catalogue. Blending hard rock, heavy metal and punk influences, Orgasmatron remains an important record in the band’s history and a fan favourite nearly four decades on.
The 40th anniversary edition (1LP) on transparent violet vinyl includes the original studio album, remastered for the 40th anniversary and cut at half speed from the original tapes.
