ln Lemmy, directors Greg OIliver and Wes Orshoski expIore the amazing Iife and career of heavy metaI pioneer and cuIturaI icon Lemmy KiImister, the force behind the enduring, infIuential band Motorhead. Over more than four decades, the drug-fueIed, raspy-voiced Kilmister's career has intersected with many of the touchstone moments in rock: he saw the BeatIes at the Cavern CIub, he served as a roadie for Jimi Hendrix, he mentored Sid Vicious and played in both Merseybeat and psychedeIic rock bands before fusing punk and metal and thus providing the inspiration for thrash metal with Motorhead. Along the way, he forever inspired the Iikes of Dave GrohI, SIash and MetaIIica, aIl of whom appear in Lemmy, aIongside Ozzy Osbourne, Alice Cooper, Peter Hook, Jarvis Cocker and more. |
