Accept "Blind Rage" Number 1 !!!!!
- Thread starter Bryant
- Start date
this is a GREAT record, and the masterpiece that they've been building towards since the reformation.
Blood of the Nations showed much promise but was ultimately weighed down by too much filler.
Then Stalingrad turned up the ante 10-fold with a razor sharp, primal attack not seen by Accept in many years.
But the new one just kills all else, and it their best since "Metal Heart", IMO. Every song is vital….an entity unto itself. Not a wasted note can be found….and the energy is thick enough to cut!
10/10 and album of the year (so far).

that seems to be the common opinion. Ironically, I find the exact opposite to be true. They've grown stronger with each, to my ears. But mine is seemingly a minority view.
regardless, as a unit, the three records are quite potent and kick a ton of ass.
I really feel like the last three releases are fairly equal. All three kick ass. I honestly would have a tough time trying to put them in some sort of order of preference.

Nice! One of my best pals (and ex-guitarist) did the cover
Cool !! The cover is awesome, and it looks even better on their tee-shirt.

i think the issue is the first one had imo had the 3 strongest tracks of the mark tornillo era
beat the bastards
teutonic terror
pandemic
maybe blind rage and stalingrad are equal to the rest of blood of the nations but nothing on those 2 albums come close to those 3 tracks

Haven't heard the new one yet, but agree that Stalingrad didn't live up to Blood of the Nations. No filler on BOTN!
I didn't really hear any fillers on Stalin, personally. In fact, three songs in the middle, Revolution, Against The World and Twist of Fate are back to back to back some of their finest in my ear.
Having said that, I felt like Blood of the Nations, Pandemic and Bucket full of Hate were as strong as any Accept songs ever written as well. Tough for me to choose.
