Hear Motörhead frontman Lemmy Kilmister's lost country duet 'The Mask' with Lynda Kay

Kilmister started writing the outlaw country song “The Mask” in 1979 — the same year he put out the screaming, hard-rock albumswith his band Motörhead — but didn’t finish it until three decades later. Now, a decade after that – and a couple of years after his death – the song is finally seeing the light of day.

Kilmister completed the song in 2009 with country singer Lynda Kay, who plays herself on the Amazon Prime series. The recording was thought to be lost but was recently rediscovered. It features Kilmister singing in a way that shows off his full voice, as opposed to the gruff grunts of Motörhead, and it is now the lead single off Kay’s upcoming album. A rare heart-on-sleeve love song by Kilmister, the lyrics concern a couple whose “love was doomed.” The LP is due out tomorrow, August 23rd.

In other Motörhead news, the music that Kilmister actually did put out in 1979 will be getting a reappraisal in a new box set,
