Hardly any other band has influenced the Heavy Metal genre as much as German legends Accept. Classics albums such as Restless And Wild (1982), Balls To The Wall (1983) and Metal Heart (1985), have inspired generations of new bands, and this has continued since their reunion in 2009. Both Blood Of The Nations (2010) and Stalingrad (2012) entered the charts globally and underline the premiere league status Accept still have today.
Now Accept announce the release of their new studio album: “Something happened to us, something subliminal and impetuous,” commented main composer Wolf Hoffmann. “It is wild and scary and it’s called Blind Rage!”
Blind Rage, just like its two predecessors has been produced, mixed and mastered by Andy Sneap. On July 18th, 2014 Blind Rage will be released worldwide. “The cover artwork done by Daniel Goldsworthy shows the beast coming over us – in blind rage – all over the planet. Wherever we go, whenever you turn on the TV – there is blind rage in the works – either natural catastrophes or man-made madness”, the axe man of Accept states.

What an amazing band. Have loved Accept since the late 70’s / very early 80’s.
“Hardly any other band has influenced the Heavy Metal genre as much as German legends Accept.” Really???? ‘ Fast as a Shark ‘may have single handedly started the thrash movement, but aside of that it was a mix of watered down Judas Priest, AC?DC and Richie Blackmore. Not saying they weren’t great in their time, just putting things in the right perspective.
