B’estfest 2009 will last four days and the famous American heavy metal band Manowar will perform on the last day of the festival within the B’estfest Aftershock event.
 
Motörhead was formed in 1975 by bassist, singer and songwriter Lemmy, who has remained the sole constant member. Usually a power trio, Motörhead had particular success in the early 1980s with several successful singles in the UK Top 40 chart. The albums Overkill, Bomber, Ace of Spades, and particularly No Sleep ‘til Hammersmith, cemented Motörhead’s reputation as one of Britain’s foremost rock bands.
 
 While Motörhead are typically classified as heavy metal, speed metal or thrash metal, Lemmy dislikes such labels, preferring to describe the band’s music simply as "rock n’ roll".
 
Motörhead’s lyrics typically cover such topics as war, good versus evil, abuse of power, promiscuous sex, substance abuse, and "life on the road."
 
The band’s distinctive fanged-face logo, Snaggletooth, with its oversized boars’ horns, chains, and spikes, was created by artist Joe Petagno in 1977 for the cover of the Motörhead album and has appeared in many variations on covers of ensuing albums.
