Wolf Hoffmann (guitar) and Peter Baltes (bass) of reformed German heavy metal legends ACCEPT were interviewed on Russia's Radio Rocks radio station on Friday, May 14 prior to the band's headlining show at B1 Maximum Club in Moscow. Watch the chat in two parts below. Also available is fan-filmed video footage of the concert.
The new lineup of ACCEPT made its live debut last Saturday (May 8) at the 750-capacity Gramercy Theatre in New York City.
ACCEPT's new studio album, "Blood Of The Nations", is scheduled for release in North America on September 14 via Nuclear Blast Records. The band's 15th LP was recorded at Backstage Studio in Derbyshire, England with acclaimed British producer and SABBAT guitarist Andy Sneap (MEGADETH, EXODUS, ARCH ENEMY, NEVERMORE). The CD which will mark the recording debut of the band's latest addition, vocalist Mark Tornillo (ex-TT QUICK) will contain around 14 tracks, including "The Abyss", "Shades Of Death", "Teutonic Terror", "Blood Of The Nations" and "Pandemic".
Regarding Tornillo's addition to ACCEPT, Hoffmann previously said, "It all happened in minutes. Peter and I were working on some tunes in a studio in New Jersey. Somebody suggested we give this guy Mark a call to see if he would join us on vocals. So when he arrived we started jamming on some old ACCEPT tunes just for fun. As soon as Mark started singing we looked at each other and realized the impossible just happened: we found a new voice for ACCEPT! The timing could not have been better! Now or never... We are re-energized and excited..."
TT QUICK was a popular club band during the 1980s in the New York and New Jersey area and was known for the guitar work of David Dipietro and the powerful vocals of Mark Tornillo. Dipietro's skills were especially singled out as he had given lessons to both Zakk Wylde of the OZZY OSBOURNE band and SKID ROW's Dave Sabo.
TT QUICK disbanded and later reunited sporadically and released a few more albums, including a live CD from one of their reunion gigs ("Thrown Together Live") and a studio effort, "Ink", which came out in 2000.
