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.”
