A long-lost album by Motörhead, The Manticore Tapes, will be released on June 27, showcasing the classic 1976 lineup of Lemmy, Fast Eddie Clarke, and Phil Taylor. The album features 11 tracks recorded during their first studio appearance at Emerson, Lake & Palmer's Manticore Studio. It celebrates Motörhead's 50th anniversary, with restoration led by Cameron Webb. A deluxe edition includes a live set from 1977, alongside two unreleased live performances. The announcement aligns with Motörhead Day festivities and acknowledges their enduring influence, despite being overlooked by the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame.
In August 1976, the band set up at Emerson, Lake & Palmer's legendary Manticore Studio to rehearse, marking their first recording session with the classic lineup.
The long-lost album was captured by Ron Faucus and restored by Cameron Webb, commemorating Motörhead's 50th anniversary with 11 tracks recorded in their early days.
This summer, Motörhead will release The Manticore Tapes, a legendary collection detailing their initial studio efforts as a celebration of their enduring legacy.
Despite their influential history, Motörhead remains one of the largest omissions from the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, reinforcing their overlooked yet significant impact on music.
