What Customers Say About Overnight Sensation [Vinyl]:

Motorhead never fails to provide a pure enjoyable head banging experience, and overnight sensation does just that. Great album, highly recommended if you are a Motorhead fan.

I've been a fan of Motorhead from way back and though some may say they keep making the same album over and over again, I, for one, as with AC/DC don't like fixing something that isn't broke. Crazy Like A Fox and Listen To Your Heart are my favorites.There is enough variety to tell this album apart from every other Motorhead album, and when it first came out, it showed that these guys still had it well past their supposed prime. My only regret here is that Philthy Animal is no longer with them.This has been the most stable lineup I think Motorhead has ever had, and though my sentiments go for Little Philthy, Mickey Dee is still one hell of a drummer and has taken up the slack without missing a beat.As for the music, there is no one, and never will be another Lemmy. His voice is admittedly an acquired taste, but one I developed many moons ago.The songs are all great, typical Motorhead, but with a few very memorable standout tracks. Even now, decades later, they are still going strong and will always have a special place in my heart. Highly recommended.

It has nice production and is very heavy, with about 4/5ths of it being great, just like all the albums Motorhead has released since "March Or Die."Highlights include the absolutely rocking "Crazy Like A Fox" which just happens to include some of the funnier lyrics Lemmys written ("Don't you turn your back on me/You just make it worse/You look just as beautiful/When you're movin' in reverse"), the title track, with its unsual-for-Motorhead but surprisingly appropriate use of accoustic guitars, and (my personal album fav) "Love Can't Buy You Money," boasting a riff that literally gave my dad goosebumps. Yes, a dignified, 51 year old man did this. This Motorhead album made my dad a fan.Despite being a lover of a lot of metal and hard rock (AD/DC, Metallica, Judas Priest etc)., every time I played some Motorhead for him, he certainly didn't hate it, but nothing ever really struck him as anything special.That is, until he heard "Crazy Like A Fox." That song made him jump around the living room, dancing and playing the air guitar. That riff is a stomper. Such is the power of a good Motorhead song.He has since taken the album from me and won't give it back. He loves it.And its quite a good album too. It kinda reminds me of a much much much heavier Guns 'n' Roses.As always, there are just a few songs that just don't do it for me like the others ("Broken" is, uh, broken, and "Shake The World" doesn't really grab me, though my dad really likes it), but like I said, 4/5ths of it is good stuff. Fans will dig it, and those looking for an introduction to the later era of Motorhead will find this album to be about as good as anything else they've done since "Orgasmatron."So buy and enjoy, its business as usual with "Overnight Sensation" and business continues to be darn good.

Good worthy follow-up to their 'Sacrifice' effort. It's just that I've got SO much Motorhead and I still don't have every one of their releases. Some fans say this CD is Motorhead's most diverse work in years.Still a great catalog title from Lemmy and crew,that's a true keeper.Well,to MOST Motorhead fans it is.Tracks that I thought made the grade were the metal gems,"Civil War","Eat The Gun",the humorous "Crazy Like A Fox" and the steady rocker "Shake The World". Also liked "Love Can't Buy You Money". Maybe half of their repertoire. Still churning out that must-have British heavy metal after all these years.

This album is a little more diverse in style than a typical Motorhead album but it doesn't veer far from the proven path. Its a very solid effort by Lemmy and the gang and probably one of their five best albums.Choice cuts: "I Don't Believe a Word", "Broken", and "Shake the World".
