Lemmy from Motorhead says his solo album is ready for release soon

Despite recent revelations that his poor health was the reason for Motorhead's shortened performance at the German Wacken Open Air festival and that he has been fitted with a pacemaker Lemmy has no plans to stop rocking any time soon if he can help it.

Speaking to Revolver magazine he mentioned trying to tour again with the band when he felt a little better, staring a new studio album and possibly most importantly right now the imminent release of his solo album, which he has been working on on and off since 2004. And quite a star studded affair it is shaping up to be too.

Of the album Lemmy said; " I still want to do a track with (Skunk Anansie vocalist) Skin before I put it out. There are two tracks with the Reverend Horton Heat, two with The Damned, a track with Dave Grohl and a track with Joan Jett. Right now we're thinking of calling it 'False Teeth For The Deaf'. It's all just great rock and roll, that's the only way to describe it. Some of it is bluesy and some isn't. It's not Motorhead, but obviously there are elements in common."
