"Orgasmatron" is the title song of British metal band Motörhead's 1986 album of the same name. One of Motörhead's heaviest songs, Orgasmatron is a dark apocalyptic tale of turmoil and pain mixed with religious and political themes. Motörhead re-recorded it in 2000 and made it available as an internet download, where it was referred to as "Orgasmatron 2000", but it later appeared in 2003 on the Stone Deaf Forever! box set. That version has some differences from the original track.
[edit] Covers
Many bands have covered the song, perhaps most notably Sepultura on their 1991 album Arise. Satyricon, Transmetal, Yat-Kha and Hellsongs have also covered it, each having their own alterations on the song.
