Undisputed rock n\u2019 roll legends MOT\u00d6RHEAD kicked off their first live performances since August 2013 with an electrifying bang this past weekend \u2013 performing to completely packed, sold out crowds on Friday at Club Nokia in Los Angeles and on Sunday at Coachella. <\/p>\n
MOT\u00d6RHEAD performed 15 songs on Friday, including top tracks \u2018Ace of Spades\u2019 and \u2018Overkill\u2019, with Slash joining in (see below for some fantastic photos from the set). The exciting set included tracks encompassing the band\u2019s career; including a track from the band\u2019s new album Aftershock.<\/p>\n
As mentioned above, not only did MOT\u00d6RHEAD bring down the house at Club Nokia, but then turned right around to rock the sold out crowd at Coachella on Sunday! \u201cLegendary London heavy metal band MOT\u00d6RHEAD, with special guest Slash, got the devil horns approval of fans on Sunday at the Coachella Valley Music & Arts Festival,\u201d states Wes Woods of the Los Angeles Daily News. In a Twitter post, Billboard adds, \u201cMOT\u00d6RHEAD, who have already pummeled the crowd with the heaviest riffs heard all weekend, welcome Guns N\u2019 Roses guitar god Slash to the stage for a balls to the walls rendition of \u201cAce of Spades.\u201d Any marbles Coachella had left are instantly lost.\u201d<\/p>\n
Apparently MOT\u00d6RHEAD out-rocked other bands, even way across the festival grounds! According to Yahoo Music, \u201cThe roaring riffs of Slash and MOT\u00d6RHEAD axeman Phil Campbell could be heard all the way across Coachella’s vast polo field, practically bleeding over into Arcade Fire’s Main Stage revue.\u201d<\/p>\n
