The Legends are Back! Accept confirmed for ProgPower USA
Reformed German metal legends, Accept, have been confirmed as the headliner of the ProgPower USA Kick-Off on September 9th in Atlanta, GA. This will be their first headline show in Atlanta in their illustrious thirty year career.
The band’s lineup consists of:
Mark Tornillo – Vocals
Wolf Hoffmann – Guitars
Herman Frank – Guitars
Peter Baltes – Bass
Stefan Schwarzman – Drums
“Blood Of the Nations” is the first ACCEPT studio album in over a decade and the first to feature Mark Tornillo on
vocals. It was recorded over the winter of 2009-2010 at Backstage Studio in Derbyshire, England with celebrated
British producer, Sabbat guitarist and long-time ACCEPT fan Andy Sneap (Megadeth, Exodus, Arch Enemy,
Nevermore). It is currently scheduled for an April release.
Wolf sums it up plain and simple: “Something amazing has happened. We seem to have been transformed from one world into another… these new songs simply bursted out of a vault that has been locked up for too long! We’re not sure where Blood of the Nations and all this new excitement will ultimately take us; we only know one thing: We never had it this good!”
