What is your favorite metal band? Mine is Motörhead, some people say their music all sounds the same, thank god, because they barely have any bad releases. Only ones I can point out are: The melancholic diddy ballad right between two bouncy rock'n'roll tracks in the album "Bastard" and some of Lemmy's awful collabs.

Here are what are considered the best albums from their classic lineup of 'Fast' Eddie Clarke, Phil 'Philty Animal' Taylor and 'Lemmy' Kilmister (Seen in picrel) I recommend you listen to them first:
>Ace of Spades (1980)
Bloody classic, their most famous one for a reason. Up in my top 5 albums from 1980.
>Overkill (1979)
Probably their most influential album, created speed metal and inspired thrash and black metal bands.
>Bomber (1979)
Slower than both Ace of Spades and Overkill, but still has great tracks, worth it if just for the first and last songs.

The rest of albums from this lineup:
>Motörhead (1977)
Their debut that still carries a lot of the style and songs from Lemmy's previous band, so you'll find mostly psychedelic rock with some bluesy and outright heavy tracks too, I love it despite the fact it's often forgotten.
>Iron fist (1982)
This is pure Motörhead, the title track specifically is great and the highlight. If you liked the previous ones you'll like this. This is also the last album from the classic lineup because the guitarrist left after a terrible collab Lemmy did with a former prostitute turned punk singer GEG.
