The ongoing Motörhead live recording series, The Löst Tapes, is being collected on a new eight-disc CD box set arriving February 23rd. In addition, a fifth volume in the series, Live at Donington Download Fest ’08, has been announced as part the box set and as a standalone vinyl release.
The Motörhead camp launched The Löst Tapes series in 2021, restoring previously unreleased Motörhead concert recordings sourced from cassette tapes discovered in the archives of the late Lemmy Kilmister.
“[Cassettes] were a standard part of every tour … Motörhead were certainly no exception, recording show after show,” read the press release for the box set. “They contain gold, pure aural gold, and had for many years sat hundreds of feet underground in a small cave Lemmy owned, guarded by small, hairy centurions in Roman armor with small spears and bad attitudes. Only the magic password would release them, and thankfully, Lem had scribbled it...

Motörhead have dropped a previously unreleased live version of “The Hammer,” which will appear on the upcoming 40th anniversary reissue of their first live album, No Sleep ’Til Hammersmith, out June 25th.
This version of “The Hammer” — which Motörhead tear through in all their ragged, raw and pulverizing glory — comes from their March 30th, 1981 concert concert at Newcastle City hall in Newcastle, England. While a handful of tracks from that show made it on to the original No Sleep ’Til Hammersmith, the new reissue marks the first time the concert...

‘Girls5Eva’ Trailer: Renee Elise Goldsberry Lives the ‘Fashion Life’ in First Look at Peacock Series
Get ready to go back to the 1990s with the girl gang of Girls5Eva! The first trailer dropped for the Tina Fey- executive produced project — and get ready to learn that your favorite pop songs might be problematic.
The series, created by Meredith Scardino, tells the story of the eponymous girl group and what happens when they book a gig after 20 years. As we see, the group has splintered off and each member done their own thing to varying degrees of success: “Hamilton” star Renee Elise Goldberry’s character, Wickie, tries to live the life of a pop star (at least for her Instagram photos), while Summer (Busy Philips) hasn’t been successful in becoming a Real Housewife.
Along the way the group learns that their music wasn’t exactly positive for young women, if a song named “Jailbait” is any indication. With that, Dawn (Sara Bareilles) is...
