Heavy metal
Heavy metalRock

Lemmy is a Heavy metal and Rock act. Their sound grew out of Pink Fairies, The Nolans, The Beatles, Jimi Hendrix and The Nice. Those roots explain a lot about how Lemmy arrange songs and choose their tones. They run in the same orbit as Motörhead, Ozzy Osbourne, AC/DC, Spinal Tap and Sebastian Bach, sharing audiences, venues and reference points rather than a straight line of influence. Their influence carried into Motörhead, The Damned, Slayer, Wendy O. Williams and Harley Flanagan, where the same ideas turn up rearranged for a later generation. Altogether the chart holds 27 connections around Lemmy, reaching back through Pink Fairies and forward to Motörhead.
