Uno dei primi a manifestare il suo dolore attraverso i social network è stato Ozzy Osbourne, poi ne sono arrivati a centinaia. Chi piange un amico e chi un eroe, sono tanti gli artisti che sono stati ispirati a quell’asso di Lemmy, tra gli ispiratori principali di speed e thrash metal.
Dopo la morte di Lemmy Kilmister, il batterista dei Motörhead, Mikkey Dee ha dichiarato quello che tutti si aspettavano: senza Lemmy, non ci sono più i Motörhead. Rolling Stone ha celebrato il fondatore e frontman indiscusso dei Motörhead con una selezione di 20 canzoni che puoi ascoltare qui.
Metallica, Flea, Henry Rollins, Tom Morello, Paul Stanley, Gene Simmons, Garbage, Alice Cooper, Skin, Juliette Lewis, John 5, Social Distortion, Fred Durst, Dave Navarro, sono stati davvero tanti gli artisti a dedicare un ultimo pensiero al veterano, li abbiamo raccolti qui:
Lost one of my best friends, Lemmy, today. He will be sadly missed. He was a warrior and a legend. I will see you on the other side.
