The golden era of the single – in the 1970s and 80s – Motörhead regularly assaulted the ears of chart listeners on Sunday afternoons with a string of hits in the rock charts of the time. The single as a format may have become less important since the 90s with the advent of the CD, but this did not diminish the quality of the singles and promos that Motörhead continued to release.
These singles, most of which were released on CD, are rare today and have a very high collector’s value. So it seems fitting to revisit this patron saint’s belt of the band’s hit caliber and release it in the format that the single once gave birth to: 7″ vinyl.
„We Take No Prisoners“ is a collection of the band’s singles from 1995 to 2006, available as a box set with nine 7″ singles as well as an extended double CD and a digital edition. From crowd favorites like the massive „Sacrifice“, to their unique cover of the Sex Pistols‘ „God Save The Queen“, to the semi-acoustic roots vibes of „Whorehouse Blues“, there was no denying that their songwriting prowess was still second to none.
Featuring a selection of rare live and radio recordings and a long-lost promo interview with Lemmy and Mikkey Dee from 2004, this is the ultimate collection from that era of the band with the songs that fueled the success of their respective albums.
