Motörhead-Sänger Lemmy Kilmister ist mit 70 Jahren gestorben

In der Nacht erreichte uns die Nachricht, dass Lemmy Kilmister, der ikonische Frontmann der legendären Band Motörhead, von uns gegangen ist. Er wurde vor ein paar Tagen, am Heiligabend, 70 Jahre alt, nachdem er die Monate zuvor mit seinen gesundheitlichen Problemen zu kämpfen hatte. Rock'n'Roll hat einen seiner gewaltigsten Titanen verloren.

Die Band selbst hat den Tod von Lemmy bestätigt und gesagt, er hätte den Kampf gegen einen „extrem aggressiven“ Krebs verloren.

„There is no easy way to say this…our mighty, noble friend Lemmy passed away today after a short battle with an extremely aggressive cancer. He had learnt of the disease on December 26th, and was at home, sitting in front of his favorite video game from The Rainbow which had recently made it’s way down the street, with his family.

We cannot begin to express our shock and sadness, there aren’t words.

We will say more in the coming days, but for now, please…play Motörhead loud, play Hawkwind loud, play Lemmy’s music LOUD.
Have a drink or few.

Share stories.

Celebrate the LIFE this lovely, wonderful man celebrated so vibrantly himself.

HE WOULD WANT EXACTLY THAT.

Ian ‘Lemmy’ Kilmister
