Motörhead Live Performance of Sword of Glory at Schalke Arena, Gelsenkirchen

Venue: Veltins-Arena Location: Gelsenkirchen, North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany Date: October 7, 2006

In October 2006, Motörhead delivered a high-octane performance of 'Sword of Glory' at the Veltins-Arena during the Stock Car Crash Challenge. This live recording came just after the release of their album 'Kiss of Death,' which debuted earlier that same year. 'Kiss of Death' marked a significant moment in the band's career, showcasing their iconic blend of rock and heavy metal, and was met with positive reviews. It featured notable tracks like 'Devil I Know' and 'Suffering Bastard,' which highlighted frontman Lemmy's gritty vocals and the band's relentless energy. An interesting fact about this performance is that it was part of a unique show combining motorsport with rock music, immersing fans in an atmosphere where heavy riffs blended with roaring engines. This fusion perfectly encapsulated the band's raw, rebellious spirit and their ability to captivate audiences, both in arenas and beyond.
