Actual Robots Cover Motörhead Classic
Give a trio of metal robots instruments to smash away at and what do you get? A shockingly good cover of Motörhead's classic anthem, "Ace of Spades."HT: Market Power
The trio is known as Compressorhead and is comprised of guitarist Fingers; bassist Bones; and drummer Stickboy, who miraculously has not two but four arms. When you are the drummer of a metal band, you can never, ever have too many arms.
Yes, this terrific Motörhead cover is played by a "band" of robots. Not only do they hit the notes, but they've also got groove. They even headbang....MORE
They also do covers of AC/DC (TNT), Joan Jett (I Love Rock N Roll, full frontal) and The Ramones (Blitzkrieg Bop).
For real Teutonic vibe the spelling on the name should be Kömprëssörhëäd.
*After Downgrade by Chinese Rating Agency Ünited Stätes Toughens Image With Umlauts
WASHINGTON, DC—In a move designed to make the United States seem more "bad-assed and scary in a quasi-heavy-metal manner," Congress officially changed the nation's name to the Ünited Stätes of Ämerica Monday.See also:
"Much like Mötley Crüe and Motörhead, the Ünited Stätes is not to be messed with," said Sen. James Inhofe (R-OK). An upcoming redesign of the Ämerican flag will feature the new name in burnished silver wrought in a jagged, gothic font and bolted to a black background. A new national anthem is also in the works by composer Glenn Danzig, tentatively titled "Howl Of The She-Demon." Source
