The truly anarchic WARFARE, widely considered to have been the original “metal punks”, were formed by drummer Evo in early 1984. Evo had learned his trade in legendary droog band Major Accident, he then moved to London to join The Blood, with a spell drumming for the legendary Angelic Upstarts, before forming Warfare.
A fresh and much needed shot in the arm for the UK metal scene of the mid-80s, Warfare signed to Neat Records for a series of highly influential and original LPs and EPs.
One band that was equally revered by the punks and metal-heads alike was Motörhead, being a major influence on Warfare. ‘The Lemmy Sessions’ features the unreleased Lemmy Kilmister mix of Warfare’s influential 1985 opus, ‘Metal Anarchy’.
As the only band that Lemmy produced (outside of Motörhead and The Ramones), this recently discovered “rough mix” is presented from the original cassette for Evo to approve before the final mix down.
