Motörhead's "Bomber" album isn't metal

After revisiting "Bomber" this week, I've come to the conclusion that any suggestions that the early Motörhead records are metal releases were clearly misguided. There isn't a single track that I'd suggest warrants a metal tag included on this album. It's a raw & dirty hard rock record with a strong blues component still evident & it should really be sitting under Non-Metal as far as I'm concerned. Please vote YES to facilitate that change.

Heretical as it might be to some, I actually agree with this.
To me, Motörhead always felt like hard rock with as much of a punk element as a metal one, at least in the earlier works (and to some degree even on the later ones).
