4.0 out of 5 stars Motorhead - 'Bomber' (Metal-Is) 4 1/2 stars, June 22, 2005

By	Mike Reed (USA) - See all my reviews (TOP 500 REVIEWER)

Originally released in 1979,'Bomber' was Lemmy and crew's second album.Basically another top-of-the-heap serving of British metal-punk(as some might call it).Heck,I'll always refer to it as heavy metal.No matter what you tag it as,it's prime Motorhead;ALL the freakin' way,mate!Key tracks include "Dead Men Tell No Tales","Sharpshooter"(perhaps,a love song?),my favorite "Stone Deaf Forever",the title cut "Bomber" and "Leaving Here".This reissue tags on five(5)beloved bonus songs to lure us to purchase a copy.Pretty sneaky,eh?Recommended.

5.0 out of 5 stars it's not the fastest m'head album, but it's the catchiest, October 21, 2004

A Kid's Review

this album by no means has the speed of "overkill" or "ace of spades" but "bomber" has the grooviest, hook laden motorhead songs ever devised, just listen to "sharp shooter" or "lawman" to see what i mean, motorheads best songwritting is on hear.
this album prooves speed isn't everything, even for a band like motorhead, don't get me wrong, there are a couple fast ones but this album isn't based on speed like "overkill" or "ace of spades" was, its more about songwritting and cathy riffs. this is by far motorheads best album, this is the only thing from them i need, and i consider myself a fan too. lemmy fr***ing rocks on this "like a sniper, i got my sights on you!, windsheild wiper, nothing spoiling my view!" where else can you hear something like that now? even on a m'head record, gotta love that now. this album just has a different feel to it then any thing they have done before or after this, this came out in late 79, why doesn't this album get attention like ace or overkill do? my final verdict is that while "bomber" might not be as fast as "overkill" "ace of spades" or "iron fist" it makes up for it whith some of the best motorhead songs ever written like "all the aces" and "stone dead forever" amoung others, lemmy is a true lawman, rock on!

4.0 out of 5 stars Bomber is no bomb, August 17, 2007

By	Doc Shred - See all my reviews

There's no such thing as a bad Motorhead album. The original line up with fast Eddie and Philthy is impossible to beat in the heavy metal realm. Bomber is my least favorite of the Eddie/Phil classic era, but it's still a freakin' fantastic record. I like Ace of Spades, Over Kill, and Iron Fist better, but this is also a must have for Motor heads.

Standout tracks: Dead Men Tell No Tales, Stone Dead Forever
