Jewelcase CD with 12-page booklet, remastered edition, contains 5 bonus tracks.

Background information about 'Iron Fist'

Motörhead's fifth studio album "Iron Fist" stands as a thunderous testament to the band's uncompromising approach to heavy rock. Originally released in 1982, this remastered edition captures the raw energy and metallic fury that made Lemmy Kilmister and his crew legends of the genre. The album kicks off with the title track's crushing riff assault and never lets up, delivering twelve tracks of pure sonic aggression that bridges the gap between punk attitude and heavy metal power. Songs like "Heart of Stone" and "I'm The Doctor" showcase the band's ability to craft memorable hooks without sacrificing their signature bite.

This expanded reissue includes five bonus tracks that provide fascinating insight into the band's creative process, including alternate versions of "(Don't Let 'Em) Grind Ya Down" and the wonderfully titled "Lemmy Goes To The Pub" - an alternate take on "Heart of Stone". The production, originally handled by Eddie Clarke and Will Reid-Dick, maintains that distinctly gritty Motörhead sound that influenced countless metal and punk bands. While it may not reach the heights of "Ace of Spades", "Iron Fist" remains an essential piece of the Motörhead puzzle, showcasing their relentless drive and Lemmy's unmistakable bass growl.

For fans of: Black Sabbath, Judas Priest, Saxon, Tank and Venom
