MÖTLEY CRÜE: 'Sex' Available For Free Download For 24 Hours Only - July 16, 2012
"Sex", a brand new song from MÖTLEY CRÜE, is available for free download for 24 hours only at Motley.com.

Written when the band was together during their residency in Las Vegas last February, "Sex" is the first studio track from the CRÜE since their June 2008 release of "Saints Of Los Angeles". The song was recorded at MÖTLEY CRÜE drummer Tommy Lee's studio called The Atrium in Calabasas, California.

Speaking to VH1 Radio Network's Dave Basner in March, MÖTLEY CRÜE bassist and main songwriter Nikki Sixx stated about the band's new track, "It sounds very much like it's off of the first record [1981's 'Too Fast For Love']. And that was definitely on purpose. I've been writing very simple riffs for the last year and focusing on how these riffs would work for Vince [Neil, vocals], basically, and took it in the studio with Tommy and Mick [Mars, guitar] and the thing just came alive."

In an interview with AOL's Noisecreep, Tommy stated about "Sex", "I think Nikki is partially right. It's got a retro CRÜE kind of vibe to it — a simplistic riff. But I also think the song has a modern sound to it. There's some cool analog synths in it and a beat that is really funky and modern. So I guess you can say that it has a retro yet modern sound."

He added, "Overall, I think that 'Sex' sounds like 2012 and that makes me really happy. It turned out killer! Not that I'm not into some retro-sounding stuff, but it is 2012 kids — let's keep it moving. At the end of the day, it's a great summertime song that's going to have everybody screaming along to it on this upcoming tour."

I don't know if I'd call it "horrendous" but its really not that good. Sounds like a post-Dr. Feelgood filler song. It doesn't sound anything like the "Too Fast For Love" album.

My vote is eh

I like the fact that Tommy bascially says that Nikki is wrong and it doesn't really sound like TFFL....song is nothing special and the guitar solo kills any momentum that was going on....glad they didn't try to make a whole record, because SOLA was not their best effort, though it was almost a decent Sixx Am record...

I bet they break out the titty cam at the shows to try and get the crowd into this song. Considering some of the great albums and singles to come out this year..this is weak!

I've always had a guilty pleasure of liking the Crue's music. And no matter how much of an idiot Vince/Tommy are, I give them credit for understanding that even though they all hate each other, that they can't make a dime without all 4 of them. All 4 together, let's sell out a 10k seat venue! Vince solo, let's giveaway tickets to a 500 seat venue!

All that being said, this song is pretty "blah" at best!

I imagine it's the best they can do in this day and age, so it's an OK rocker.

That kick drum sound is getting on my nerves, though. Jeez.

I'm liking it more with every listen, and I'm glad it's not just a simple retro sound. At the end of the day, it's just a cool Motley song; dirty sleazy rock n roll but not dated at all. The synthe'd "Sex" chorus is great, definitely lifted from the band "Slegh Bells," but cool never the less.

There's never going to be another TFFL. Once a band has the level of success, fame and fortune that they've had, trying to make something along the lines of TFFL is pointless. Think about it. When they were making that album they really had nothing to live up to. Now it's 30 years later, they're old, and have a lot of experience under their belts. How can you write a tune from the perspective of a starving party animal in your early 20's who fucks everything that moves when you're in your 50s and living in a mansion? Same goes for KISS when they say "It's our next Destroyer/Rock & Roll Over!" about their new albums. NO THEY AREN'T. It's just a way to pique interest and generate hype.

All that said, it sounds like another Motley Crue song. That is all.

the bands say these things of course to make some interest in the new music because the fans are usually stuck in some midlife crisis and always want to relive some moment in time long gone, while these older bands maybe want that to but they still want to make new and mabye different music. Motley Crue did a great album with Corabi but the fans turned their backs just because it didnt sound exactly like older Crue albums. and then when they sound like Motley Crue then some fans cry because it does sound like old Motley Crue and so on.
i have to say TFFL was not their best album, maybe 4-5, i like SOLA better, i realy dont care if a band is old or new or whatever, if the music is good its good no matter if the band is supposed to be the next big think or burn outs or whatever

i remember on story just cant remember the band name, it was an older band that was once just big not huge and came back to gether and sent a song to some radio station under a different name and they played it very much until they knew it was realy that older band.

lots of these older bands are making good and great music but they are still always competing with old songs that the fans have so strong memories about and then they get stuck with the hits and so on.

i would probably like it most to be in a prog band that isnt huge but still big like Tool, Dream Theater, Yes, Opeth and more, there you just have the true fans not people who buy albums because of 1-2 songs that arent even the best songs on the albums. these bands can play almost anything at their concerts and everyone is happy and know the songs

saw Metallica few years back play all of master of puppets and most of the people around me didnt even know the songs, but then enter sandman and nothing else matter came and they knew them but not their best album.

and i think people would feel little strange if they wouldnt play enter sandman or Maiden wouldn't play number of the beast or Crue kickstart my heart.

nostalgia is great with these bands because they have so many great old songs but lot of these bands also have good new stuff that their fans want to hear. but of course not Metallica, they havent made a good album in 20 years.

but i realy hope Crue will make a new album, it will at least be good and as good as they can at this time, and wanna hear it. if i want TFFL or shout at the devil i will just go listen to those albums

No - it doesn't really. Be honest. Its Metallica trying to recapture something they lost in the late 80's.

It doesn't suck, and its immeasurably better than anything they've put out since the Black album, but the sound is Godawful and the songs aren't as strong as their really good stuff.

On the new Crue song - maybe I've just been bombarded by too much MOR lately, but my first thought on hearing it was "thank fuck someone is still putting out loud dirty guitar rock!" Yeah there's a little bit of "heard it before" about it, but I like it.

It's not supposed to be Dream Theater or something, it's just supposed to be a good ol' rockin' sleazy song. Which is what it is. I think it's alright, but I like SOLA better. But I still dig it. I think maybe they should play all of Too Fast For Love at some point, that would awesome!! I dig the new Kiss track better also.

Death Magnetic isnt that great and anything the Crue have put it in the last 20 years is better, and most other bands too. but if you still wanna buy their shit and make them sell lots of albums even if they dont deserve it then thats fine by me.

exactly, it is Motley Crue and Motley Crue should be Motley Crue, but i still love the Corabi album and wish they would have kept going with a different name and kept Crue going also.

and i also love Dream Theater, their new album is great.

To those who say "it sounds like just another Crue song...." as if that is a bad thing - you either like the band, or not - it's a White Castle type binary decision....it's the same as those who criticize AC/DC for sounding too much like AC/DC~!

It is what it is.

And for what it's worth, I actually liked SOLA.
