After taking a month off, the band began working on a new album at Chuck Reid’s house in the Hollywood Hills . This album, Hammered , was released the following year. On 1 April 2001, the band gave a one-song performance for Triple H ‘s entrance at WrestleMania X-Seven at the Reliant Astrodome in Houston. The second leg of the “We Are Motörhead” tour began in May in Ireland, moving across to the United Kingdom. In Manchester, the band were supported by Goldblade , and by Pure Rubbish at the two London shows. The second London show also included Backyard Babies and Paul Inder, who was guest musician for “Killed By Death”. Between June and August, Motörhead played at a number of rock festivals in Europe; including as the Graspop Metal Meeting in Belgium, the Quart Festival in Norway, and the Wacken Open Air on 4 August, where four songs were recorded for the 25 & Alive Boneshaker DVD. The band returned to the States for a seven show tour between late September and early October.
