Motörhead releases this Thursday, the 12th, “Leavin' Here”, the second single and music video from the highly anticipated album The Manticore Tapes , scheduled for release on June 27th. The new music video combines uniquely modeled characters and sets with archival footage of the band.
Originally recorded in 1976, The Manticore Tapes features previously unreleased recordings from the classic Motörhead lineup known as the Three Amigos . Formed a year after the band's creation, the lineup consisted of Lemmy (bass/vocals), Fast Eddie Clarke (guitar), and Phil “Philthy Animal” Taylor (drums).
In August 1976, the trio settled into the legendary Manticore Studio in Fulham to rehearse and present their new lineup. It was there that they recorded together for the first time. Now, 49 years later, this long-lost tape has resurfaced, restored and prepared in all its raw glory, in celebration of the iconic hard rock band's 50th anniversary.
The Manticore Tapes will be available in several editions: an expanded deluxe package with a book, containing a double LP and a 7-inch single, as well as versions on single LP, CD and digital format.
