Si Cette Parenté Peut Se Discuter Il Est Indéniable Que L'influence Du Groupe S'étend Sur Toute La Scène Hard Rock Et Metal Jusqu'à Aujourd'hui. Lemmy A Toujours Refusé De Voir Son Groupe Étiqueté Sous Une Bannière Ou Une Autre Clamant Qu'il S'agit Simplement De Rock And Roll. Cette Attitude Est Typique De La Philosophie Du Groupe Qui S'exprime Notamment Au Travers Des Paroles Des Chansons. Très Soignées Ces Dernières Abordent Des Thèmes Typiques Du Heavy Metal - Guerre Combat Du "mal" Contre La "bien-Pensance" Drogues Sexe Et Vie « Rock And Roll » Sur La Route - En Jouant Avec Les Clichés Du Genre Et En Les Contournant Habilement. Lemmy A D'ailleurs Déclaré Dans Une Interview Que La Personne Qui Avait Le Plus Influencé Sa Carrière Était Sa Professeur D'anglais Au Collège Lorsqu'elle Lui Avait Fait Découvrir La Littérature Et L'écriture.
