Motörhead promised to give fans an ouija board with the Seriously Bad Magic box set so they could contact the late Lemmy Kilmister. 

The Ace of Spaces rockers are putting out a new edition of their 2015 album Bad Magic and have added the previously unheard track Bullet In Your Brain to celebrate the upcoming release.  

Their 22nd and final release before frontman Kilmister’s death aged 70, the album marked a significant occasion for the famous musicians. 

Set to come out with a ouija board, the strange token attached to the box set was intended to encourage listeners to call on the dead ‘should the desire to have a chat with Lem or anyone beyond this mortal coil arise’.

The board will include an Ace of Spades planchette to help fans spell out their conversations with any spirits they may encounter.

Planned for a February 24 release in 2023, the collection will also include Greedy B***, alongside Bullet In Your Brain.

The latter track was recorded during the Bad Magic sessions and is now available to stream alongside a music video that contains never before seen footage.

Meanwhile, the upcoming release will also feature Motorhead’s live set at Japan’s Mt Fuji Rock Festival in 2015.

In addition to the festival footage, an audio interview with the late Kilmister from the tour will also be added to the box set bumper pack.

Last year, it was discovered that the rocker’s ashes were used to create tattoos for the band’s tour manager and production assistant.

Before he died after being diagnosed with prostate cancer two days beforehand, Kilmister made a specific request that stated he wanted his remains to be placed inside bullets and sent to his loved ones.

Crew members Eddie Rocha and Emma Cederblad have shared a video of them getting the permanent tribute to their late friend.

The clip begins with the caption: ‘Some of Lemmy’s ashes were shared with family and close friends.’

The bullet is then shown before the powdery residue is emptied out of it and slipped into ink to create a portrait of the musician for Eddie’s leg and the band’s iconic spade emblem for Emma.
