Eidos Montreal and Eidos Sherbrooke adopt the 4 day week

Motörhead [ˈmoʊtərhɛd] war eine 1975 in London gegründete Rockband. Die Musik von Motörhead vereinte Einflüsse aus Punk, Hard Rock, Rock ’n’ Roll und Bluesrock. Ihr Einfluss auf andere Musiker und Bands, vor allem bei Heavy-Metal-Bands (Metallica u. a.), war und ist im Vergleich zum eigenen kommerziellen Erfolg sehr groß.Zwischen 1979 und 1982 hatte die Band ihre kommerziell erfolgreichste Phase. Die Alben aus dieser Zeit wie Overkill, Bomber (beide 1979) und Ace of Spades (1980) gelten als wegweisend für den Heavy Metal und als Klassiker des Genres. Seit den frühen 2000er Jahren verzeichnete Motörhead wieder eine steigende Popularität. Die Bandgeschichte war von zahlreichen Wechseln in der Besetzung, beim Management und der Plattenlabel geprägt. Motörhead stand bei insgesamt 16 verschiedenen Labels unter Vertrag. Seit 1995 war die Gruppe unverändert in der Besetzung Lemmy Kilmister (E-Bass, Gesang), Phil Campbell (E-Gitarre) und Mikkey Dee (Schlagzeug) aktiv. Einen Tag nach dem Tod von Lemmy Kilmister am 28. Dezember 2015 erklärte Mikkey Dee das Ende der Band. Charakteristisch für Motörhead war, dass der E-Bass die Rolle der Rhythmusgitarre übernahm, wodurch die Klangfarbe der Musik deutlich basslastiger als die vergleichbarer Gruppen wie AC/DC war. Im Auftreten und in den Liedtexten präsentierte die Gruppe sich als „Outlaws“. Damit sicherte sich Motörhead die Sympathien der Punk-Szene der späten 1970er Jahre und diente so als Bindeglied zwischen Punk und Heavy Metal.

A real turn for the 460 employees of Eidos Montreal and the 40 employees of Eidos Sherbrooke, who are all concerned by this transition in favor of the four-day week (Monday to Thursday, or 32 hours of work per week at the place 40), without reducing wages or reviewing downward pretensions regarding production.
