Motorhead frontman Lemmy believes that rock and roll will reign eternal.

The warty singer says that the genre will never die and that its spirit still remains true today.

The 62-year-old enthusiastically told Stuff.com: “People sometimes suggest rock 'n' roll is dead, but it will never die because it's always exciting to hear a decent rock 'n' roll song.

"Look at AC/DC, man. They're still as fucking excellent as they were when they started out, all them years ago. ZZ Top are another one. They just keep finding great riffs.

"There's something about a great guitar riff that moves both your body and your soul. It speaks to something basic, you know. It gets in you. That's never going to change."
