Did you ever not realize how hungry you really were until after you had the first bite of a nice, juicy steak? That's the experience a lot of listeners are going to have with Accept's latest album, "Blood Of The Nations."
In this case, you won't realize how hungry you were for the big riffs, choruses and solos that dominated Accept's early-'80s heyday until you hear the opening blast of "Beat The Bastards," which recalls the 1980s without sounding dated at all. It sets an almost impossible standard for the rest of the album to meet — but damned if the band doesn't give its all in trying to do so.
The elephant in the room, so to speak, is that there's a new guy behind the microphone. As far as replacement vocalists go, Mark Tornillo is more a "Ripper" Owens than a Blaze Bayley, if you catch my drift. He's got a terrific sound that will no doubt mesh well with Accept's back catalog on stage, while bringing his own touches to the new material. Only the most hardcore fans are going to listen to this album and decry the absence of Udo Dirkschneider. Besides, even though we've "lost" Udo, we've gained back guitarist Herman Frank, who, along with mainstay Wolf Hoffmann, tears it up on nearly every track.
In general, the songs that work best on the album are the faster tunes like "Beat The Bastards," which has an almost Motorhead-ish feel, and "Teutonic Terror," with its almost martial movement. "Locked And Loaded," "Rollin' Thunder" and "No Shelter" will all satisfy your ... See More

다소 부진했던 전작 Predator에서 14년의 간극을 두고 나온 본작은 실망감을 기대감과 만족감으로 바꾸는 와신상담 강력한 일발입니다. 쭉쭉 뻗는 시원한 헤비메탈 리프들로 정체함 없이 직진만 밟아대는데, 노련함과 여유가 가득합니다. 분명 러닝타임은 길고 또 그 길이가 고스란히 체감되는 부분은 어쩔수 없으나 그 때문에 체크해보지않고 넘기기는 손해입니다.

정통 헤비메탈 장인들의 성공적인 신보. 이들의 나이를 고려함에도 불구하고, 이러한 음악을 여전히 괜찮은 퀄리티로 뽑아낼 수 있다는 사실이 나에게는 너무나도 경악스럽다.

유튜브 떠돌다가 우연히 들었는데 상상이상으로 좋았다.
거진 10년 만에 액셉트를 들었는데, 우도 옹과는 다른 마크 옹의 목소리가 생각보다 듣기 편했고
화려하지는 않지만 투박하지 않고 적당히 거친 것이 귀를 자극했다.
우연히 발견한 보물 같은 느낌이다.

podarené nápady, kvalitný nový spevák, ktorý dokáže zaspievať aj tvrdé songy, ale aj balady

Accept라는 밴드를 처음 알게해준 앨범. 첫 트랙을 듣고나서 마치 누가 뒤통수를 때린그런느낌? 헤비메탈에 대해서 이렇게 몸에서 전율이 일어난적은 없었던거 같다. Accept의 다른앨범도 필청해야될거 같은 느낌!

정통 헤비메탈의 화려한 부활!! 피가 끓는듯한 에너지로 가득한 메탈 넘버의 향연. 특히 1번곡 들으면 정말 개X끼를 때려주고 싶은 충동이... ㅎㅎ
