TRACK FRAGMENTS:
1.) "Runaround Man" – Mikkey Dee opens this intro up with a small snare drum fill.  The main musical intro consisted of a very intense rhythm guitar riff and bass line.  Mikkey plays the same snare drum fill to connect the intro with the musical verse as the one he opened the song with.  Phil changed the rhythm guitar arrangement of the musical verse to a very simple rhythm riff.  There is a rhythm arrangement change for the musical chorus.  Lenny’s vocal lines of the chorus had a small hook attached to them.  The lead guitar solo is after the second chorus.  There is a musical breakdown section that connects the lead guitar solo with the third chorus.  There is a minor lead guitar solo over the top of the outro section.
2.) "Teach You How To Sing The Blues" – There is a very simple rhythm guitar riff over the top of this intro section.  About two measures into the intro Lemmy changes the bass line.  This bass line change shows just how underrated of a bassist that Lemmy is.  This bass line leads into a rhythm riff change.  The main rhythm riff of the musical verse is the same as the intro with the addition of a few extra notes.  There is a tom-tom fill that follows along with the rhythm guitar riff that connects the musical verse with the musical chorus.  There are a couple lead guitar licks that connect the first chorus with the second verse.  Phil overdubbed sections of this rhythm guitar parts to give them a heavier sound.  Like Motörhead needs a heavier sound!!!!  In the way the band recorded the lead guitar solo section has the solo overshadowed by the backing instruments.  There are a couple bass notes played in a solo fashion that connects the lead guitar solo with the outro and last chorus.
3.) "When The Eagle Screams" - This track opens with what sounds like a Russian air pilot.  Believe it or not the musical intro to this track consisted of a fairly laid back rhythm guitar arrangement.  Mikkey plays a double bass drum pattern for the drum line of the intro.  Both Mikkey and Phil switch their rhythm arrangements for the musical verse.  Personally I felt Mikkey did not need to change his drum line at this time.  At the end of every other measure of the musical verse Mikkey plays a drum fill.  Theses drum fills range anywhere from just the snare drum to the tom-tom, to drum fills with both snare drum and tom-toms.  Not only does the rhythm change for the chorus but Mikkey completely changes the drum line for the chorus.  Connecting the first chorus with the lead guitar solo there is a small bass line breakdown.  Over the top of this breakdown section there is a small spoken vocal.  This spoken vocal is very similar to if not the same one as the intro.  The musical rhythm change between the musical verse and chorus is so minute that you almost don’t hear it.  There is a very cool drum fill connecting the chorus with the verse. I loved the subtle bass line change between the chorus and lead guitar solo.  Phil used a couple of different guitar effects pedals for the solo.  This in effect gives the illusion there are two different guitarists.  There are a couple of lead guitar licks underneath the lyric lines of the last chorus of the outro section.         
4.) "Rock Out" – Right off the bat from the opening lick this intro was very reminiscent of Motörhead’s ‘Ace of Spade’ days.  There is no musical change between the intro and verse.  Instead of changing the rhythm for the musical chorus the guys just intensified the pre existing one.  There is a small bass rhythm solo connecting the first chorus with the second verse.  For the second chorus Lemmy changed the lyric lines a little.  There is no lead guitar solo for this song with I found very odd considering it is Motörhead!
5.) "One Short Life" – This intro opens with a Lemmy bass line.  The main body of the intro consisted of a very blues intro section.  There is a rhythm guitar and bass line change for the musical verse.  In the way Lemmy and Phil arranged the bass line and rhythm guitar lets the listener hear just how good of a bassist Lemmy is.  You could argue the point that the musical and lyrical verse has an older AC/DC feel.  Musically this is a standard twelve-bar blues musical arrangement.  Just very simple and very laid back.  Which, I never thought I would say a Motörhead song was laid back!  I guess that just goes to show you there is a first time for everything. 
6.) "Buried Alive" – There is no intro for this track.  The musical arrangement underneath the lyric lines was very reminiscent of the stuff the band wrote for their ‘Ace of Spades’ album released on November 8, 1980.  There is a small musical change for the musical chorus.  I loved the riff Phil wrote for this section!!!!  There is a third rhythm guitar change leading into the lead guitar solo.  Phil double tracked the lead guitar solo to give the solo a twin lead guitar effect.  The solo Phil wrote was perfect for this song. 
7.) "English Rose" – This track opens with a Lemmy vocal line.  Lemmy’s vocal lines are laced in between the musical sections.  After the second lyric line the musical arrangement changes to a standard rhythm arrangement.  Believe it or not the lyric lines and musical arrangements of the verse have a huge hook attached to it.  This hook completely took me by surprise!!!!  Through the chorus it sounded like a couple of  Lemmy’s lyrics were double tracked for harmony.  Now granted this is the first Motörhead CD I have heard since ‘Ace of Spades’ however, I thought backing vocal harmony was something Lemmy just did not do!  In the way the guys wrote the arrangement between the chorus and verse brings the song down in intensity.  The lead guitar solo had an unusual melodic feel to it.  This, in some ways did not work with Motörhead’s intensity. 
8.) "Back On The Chain" – This blues intro had a sixties feel to it.  To connect the intro with the music verse Phil double tracked his guitar riff.  This was just to set the musical verse apart from the intro.  The main rhythm guitar riff reminded me a lot of some of the Queen of the Stone Age stuff.  There is a small more intense rhythm change after the first chorus of the song.  In the way the band arranged the song has the lead guitar solo after the first verse.  All in all this is a very simple heavy metal/blues song.
9.) "Heroes" – This intro had a very melodic feel to it.  As a drummer I loved the drum fill underneath the musical arrangement.  There is a small minor solo connecting the intro with the verse.  Mikkey switched from a standard hi-hat rhythm to a rhythm on his tom-toms for the drum line of the verse.  The choruses for this song were very short.  All in all this was another unusually melodic sounding song by Motörhead’s standards.
10.) "Time Is Right" – The intro to this track consisted of a Mikkey drum fill.  The rhythm guitar arrangements underneath Lemmy’s vocal lines have a very intense sound on this musical verse.  There is a small musical change for the chorus.  Lemmy double tracked a couple of the lyric line on the choruses.  There is a small studio effect underneath the opening of the lead guitar solo of this song.  The lead guitar solo was very short for this track.
11.) "The Thousand Names of God"  - Phil double tracked his rhythm guitar on this intro with two different rhythm guitar arrangements.  The musical intro along with Lemmy’s vocal lines of the verse gave the song a melodic sound.  There is a drum fill connecting the verse with the chorus.  The chorus had an abstract feel to it.  There is a minor lead guitar solo connecting the first chorus with the second verse.  For me the drum line made this track.  The major solo had an Arabic feel to it. 

      ‘Motörizer’ is the first Motörhead release I have had the chance to listen to all the way through since their ‘Ace Of Spades’ album.  Call it Lemmy’s age however I felt the songwriting was a lot more laid back and melodic….”thinking”…Well let me rephrase that, the songs on this are about as melodic as Lemmy is going to get!  Does this mean Motörhead has lost their edge?  Not by a long shot!  The eleven tracks on ‘Motörizer’ even the ones that are a little on the melodic side, are intense enough to keep the most diehard Motörhead fan interested.  If you a fan of Motörhead or a fan of this style of music then  ‘Motörizer’ will make a great addition to your CD collection.
