I can’t find much fault with Out Of Bounds. The songs are filled with catchy hooks and lots of breaks, and the vocals are very slick with nice harmonies.
Peppy punk about girls, loneliness, frustration (lack of girls), friends/mistakes/forgiveness (involving girls), losing/finding your way (with your girl).
Overkill was the album that showed their potential to be one of the loudest, nastiest bands of all time. The follow up, Bomber, was somewhat weak in comparison.
The hyperdrive insanity of Ace of Spades was preserved, with a melodic element brought in by guitarist Fast Eddie’s replacement, Thin Lizzy’s Brian Robertson.
Motorhead bounced back with what is still considered their definitive album, 1980’s Ace of Spades, whose title track is an unparalleled thrash masterpiece.
