Lemmy absolutely hates the term Heavy Metal attributed to his band and they are a Rock N Roll band after all is said is done.

Wow, I did some extra research online and you're right. I wonder why a lot of places still say that they are a metal band? A band should be classified as it wants to be classified even if others may have a different idea of things.

My bad.

I've always considered them metal, regardless of Lemmy's preference. I mean back when they started out metal was still very much a subgenre of rock so I think they can be called both really.

Really? I have always considered Motorhead as a Rock N Roll band just the same as AC/DC or Ramones.

I do find it odd that the actual singer and mainstay of the band states that they are not a Metal band but we can all decide otherwise.

Nobody argues the fact that AC/DC are not Metal in these arguments yet they share many traits with Motorhead.

Just because Motorhead have long hair and distorted riffs doesn't mean that they are metal to me at all.

At first, I though your list was true, but than I saw Poison, and the other 8.5 bands, you got me.

So I take it you don't like metal?
