Accept is on fire !!! Mark and Andy are certainly outstanding additions to the Accept family. Some oldschool bands really start to sound as if they are just going through the motions when they reach the age Accept is. This stuff is about as good as anything they have ever released and that is saying a lot. This is how metal is supposed to sound people. The final track "Bucketful of Hate" absolutely slays...... Wolf Hoffmann has not lost a thing on guitar either.

Haven't got the album yet, but I am gonna go buy my ticket to see their show w/ King's X opening.
I wish albums like Balls to the Wall and Metal Heart sounded this heavy. Just goes to show you how metal a band can be with a producer like Andy.
Got it last night. Sounds great! I thought they did a lot of cool things with Mark's voice. Stuff I wasn't expecting....I wasn't aware he had a good clean singing voice! AND you've got to love the signature Accept "gang" backing vocals!!! NO SHEL-TAH!!!
My copy arrives next week and I won't be surprised if I have a new #1 for 2010.
Broke down and listened to BOTN & Pandemic on YouTube and YEAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!
This is my kinda of metal!
Udo, Jon Oliva, and Brian Johnson. A mix of those three is what he sounds like to me. I like him more then Udo for sure. I think this CD is going to really bring Accept back!

Don't skip out on King's X. I have never cared for their stuff on disc, but I caught them live many years back and was very pleasantly surprised. Their stuff actually works very well live.
