Best Songs from Motorhead's Motorizer

Motörizer is the 19th studio album by the band Motörhead, released on August 26, 2008, on Steamhammer. It was their 11th release with the label and also their last.

As with all their albums since 2004's Inferno, it was produced, mixed, and engineered by Cameron Webb in California. Though the band spent most of the year touring together, Phil and Mikkey usually recorded in the US when working on Motörhead albums, as Lemmy generally avoided traveling outside of touring after relocating. His age and health eventually made this the norm for the band.

This album was recorded in the same way as the previous few, with the group rehearsing for several weeks over a few months before heading into the studio. The format served the band well enough, as they often brushed off comments about their sound not changing much from album to album by this point in their career. It was a formula they were satisfied with.
