LEMMY AND MOTÖRHEAD AT NUMBER ONE!



MOTÖRHEAD
, the loudest, coolest and most iconic rock'n'roll lifestyle around are at number one this week: 

The Wörld Is Yours - #1 on this week's CMJ's Loud Rock chart

Lemmy: 49% Motherf**ker, 51% Son of a Bitch - #1 on three Billboard's charts this week:  Music Video, Music Video DVD and Music Video Retail (Both the DVD and Bluray are in Amazon's Top 10 Best Selling Documentary Chart.)

This is a first in the U.S. for Motörhead, the hardest working, hardest touring band around.  2011 is a big year, as they celebrate Motörhead's 35th anniversary and the release their new studio album, The World Is Yours on February 8.

The critically-acclaimed documentary about Motörhead's iconic founding-frontman, titled LEMMY, premiered nationally in January and was released on DVD on February 15.  The theatrical release of the film has also extended into its sixth straight week in New York City.

Being the true road warriors they are, Motörhead will finish their North American tour in Los Angeles at Club Nokia on March 11th. If you haven't already gotten your tickets, get them now, as every show has sold out by concert time.

The band will then continue to once again conquer the globe, visiting Australia and South America in April/May, before returning to Europe between June and August.

In other Motörhead news:

- Motörhead will perform on The Jimmy Fallon Show on March 2.

- On February 25, the UK's Livewire Music Project released a charity single which is a cover of Girlschool's 80's hit, Emergency, featuring not only Girlschool, but also Lemmy. The single is available on all the usual download sites, and the proceeds will go to help rebuild a school in Haiti.
