A new 7-inch vinyl/CD box set collects Motörhead’s latter-era A-side and B-side singles, ranging from 1995 through 2006.
Dubbed We Take No Prisoners: The Singles: 1995 – 2006, the set will arrive on vinyl (nine 7-inch vinyl discs) and as a 2-CD box set, both out October 25th. The track “Shut Your Mouth,” from the band’s 2002 album Hammered, was chosen as the lead single for the collection.
The box set is especially notable for collectors. As mentioned in the band’s press release, 7-inch singles were a dominant format up until the ’90s, when CDs took over. Many of these tracks were released as CD singles at the time, before becoming sought-after collectibles. Not only does this box set return them to print, but most are receiving their first-ever release on 7-inch vinyl.
Among the notable inclusions is Motörhead’s cover of the Sex Pistols “God Save The Queen,” concert favorite and box set lead track “Sacrifice,” and the semi-acoustic “Whorehouse Blues.” Numerous radio edits and rare live tracks are on the B-sides, plus the final ninth disc features a long lost promo interview with Lemmy and Mikkey Dee from 2004 (the CD and digital editions are slightly expanded and feature the same tracks as the vinyl set).
You can pre-order the box set via this location.
