Originally completed in 1976, ‘On Parole’ was the firstever recorded material by Motoumlrhead, but was released in 1979 after it was originally heldback by then record label United Artists. The album proved to be the starting point of one of the most important bands in rock history, these early recording sessions set Motoumlrhead’s uncompromising sound and became a turning point for Lemmy who would now become front and centre of his own band and, unintentionally, one of the most iconic, influential and celebrated figures in rock music. ‘On Parole’ was eventually released in 1979 becoming the band’s fourth ‘released’ album. The album proved to have a massive impact on British musical culture like very few albums have ever had and became the bridging point from rock to heavy metal and then to punk. With Lemmy having been sacked from spaceprogressive rock legends Hawkwind, he once again started to hang out with old friend Lucas Fox who shared a multitude of passions and beliefs, and from this Motoumlrhead was born. Purposefully loud, aggressive and provocative, their songs were short, sharp, shocks instead of songs with 20minute guitar solos. They were unrelenting to their audience… and they loved it.
