2015 is turning out to be an excellent year for new old metal. A new Iron Maiden album is on its way, Slayer is about to drop Repentless, and now, the granddaddies of it all, Motörhead, have swooped in out of nowhere to drop a few bombs on our heads. Thanks to them (and the Guardian), you can now listen to five—count 'em, five—brand new songs from the UK gods' upcoming new album, Bad Magic, including a damn good Rolling Stones cover.

Even now after all these decades and all those health scares, Motörhead's still the kind of band you can set your watch by. You can take comfort in the knowledge that, as long as these three men still draw breath, they'll release a new album every couple years, and that every one of those albums will be solid, familiar, and economical—because after all, who needs more than three chords when you've got Lemmy?

Stream all five of 'em below…
