March ör Die is the tenth album by the British band Motörhead. It was recorded and released in 1992.
Recorded at Music Grinder Studios, Los Angeles, three drummers participated in the making of this album: Phil Taylor, who was fired after "I Ain't No Nice Guy" was recorded (because he didn't learn his drum tracks), Tommy Aldridge, who recorded most of the material on this album on a sessional basis only, and Mikkey Dee, who recorded the "Hellraiser" single (the song was originally co-written by Lemmy for Ozzy Osbourne's "No More Tears" album. Osbourne is also signed to Epic Records.)
The album was produced by Peter Solley with the exception of Hellraiser which was produced by Billy Sherwood, and used in the 1992 movie Hellraiser III: Hell on Earth.
The song "You Better Run" was re-recorded in 2004 as "You Better Swim" for the SpongeBob SquarePants Movie.
