i'd never seen the kronebourg/ motorhead ad before. it's cool.
personally i detest 99% of adverts and mostly it's because of the awful music. too many have either twee foreign language songs from the dawn of time (presumably where they dont have to pay the songwriter anything) scatting instead of words and/or music or -worst of all- a classic song rearranged as an utter dirge. and i absolutely hate the car advert backed with a non-cramps version of human fly.

Don't care about that advert
Cinderella's Long Cold Winter is one of the best bluesy metal albums you'll ever hear!
