On Parole Box

"One of my 1st musical loves as a kid was the 'New Wave Of British Heavy Metal' (NWOBHM) genre, so you can imagine I had a lot of fun remixing one of the seminal bands of the era. Motörhead’s 'On Parole' album for its 50th anniversary. The album was originally intended to be the band’s debut album, but was subsequently shelved, before being released 3 years later by the band’s former label after they had broken through with classic albums like 'Overkill' and 'Bomber'. The album comes across like a more stripped down version of Lemmy’s former band Hawkwind than what they would later become, even with a few psychedelic touches, but as well as the stereo remix I was able to pull of a fairly simple but effective (I think) Atmos mix. Released on April 18thj, 2026, for Record Store Day as a coloured vinyl, and the day before as a 4 disc set, including my new stereo mix on CD, the Atmos mix on BluRay, and 2 further CD's containing the complete session reels mixed by Richard Digby Smith." ~ Steven Wilson
