Lemmy Kilmister: MOTÖRHEAD Frontman Gives Statement On The Death Of Phil “Philthy Animal” Taylor

November 13, 2015 6:36 PM

MOTÖRHEAD frontman Lemmy Kilmister has given a statement via his official Facebook page about the death of his friend and former bandmate Phil “Philthy Animal” Taylor, who passed away on 11th November aged 61:

“Hello this is Lemmy from Motörhead. I’m feeling very sad at the moment, in fact devastated because one of my best friends died yesterday. I miss him already. His name was Phil Taylor, or Philthy Animal, and he was our drummer twice in our career. Now he’s died and it really pisses me off that they take somebody like him and leave George Bush alive. So muse on that. We’re still going, we’re still going strong, it’s just first Würzel and now Philthy, it’s a shame man. I think this rock n roll business might be bad for the human life. Oh well.”

Also earlier in the day Lemmy posted:

“Lil’ Philthy…he who once shouted ‘stop wincing about’ on an album…he who fueled many a young boy’s punk/metal hairstyles…he who played the drums with fury and intent…he who liked to call people ‘wazzocks’ once in a while…friend, Roman, Derbyshireman…rest in peace…with much love…”

Phil drummed for the band from 1975–1984 and 1987-1992. The iconic mark IV Motörhead line-up consisted of Lemmy, Philthy Animal Taylor and Fast Eddie Clarke.
