I'm letting this be a multiple choice poll because there's a few to choose from, and Motorhead has had several comeback eras.
I figured I would post this because Motorhead is arguably the second-most influential Metal band ever, next to Black Sabbath. Personally, though I actually prefer their earlier, Hard Rock era, specifically Overkill and Bomber, to the post-Ace of Spades albums. I feel like they fell into the same trap as AC/DC, trying to do their best album over and over again; granted, they've done a better job of it, but they still lose the variation that marked their early albums. Besides which, Overkill is one of the best Biker Rock albums ever.
Edit: damnit, I screwed up the poll... ah, well, I'm not gonna redo a poll that big.
