Motorhead is one of the major forces of the NWOBHM(New Wave Of British Heavy Metal.)They were the first to incorporate bullet belts into their appearance and perform many metal anthems(Ace Of Spades,Overkill,Killed By Death etc.) Lemmy is revered as one of the all time great metal vocalists Ace Of Spades makes them an iconic metal band.

In my opinion Motorhead has been revolutionary to metal. A lot of their stuff around Ace of Spades, made the biggest influence on Thrash Metal. Tons of great bands are, or at least started as Thrash Metal; Metallica, Megadeth, Exodus, Slayer, Anthrax. to name a few that you probably know

They rock! Motörhead is one of the most driving, gritty, important metal bands ever. They inspire fearlessness and never selling out!

One of my favorite metal bands. Soooo much better than most of the new metal bands. I also give them an edge over massive bands like Metallica, just because I like their music better.

Motorhead is great! and definitely icons within the metal genre!! Motorhead helped revolutionize metal as it is known today!!! I mean any true metal head without ace of spades in their collection is either very young or a poser!

I haven't heard too much of them. What I have heard all sounded bland and similar (Bring on the TD's). The only song that I like by them is Ace of Spades, although everyone knows that song.

I realize that they are a big name in metal and receive a buttload of respect, I just don't like their musical style all that much. Nothing personal against them, though.

I love Motörhead(hehe copy paste)

They're one of the only metal bands I enjoy listening to. They were extremely important to metal. They basically started NWOBHM, and they made it so speed was important.

Lemmy is a legend and should be treated as such Motorhead is very relevant to the metal scene!

They're pretty damn good, I like a lot of there stuff. I classify them as one of the influences in most metal.
