My first time listening to Accept...

[JohnnyGtar]

I knew that Udo Dirkschneider, Wolf Hoffman and Peter Baltes were members of Accept, but I first heard their music a few minutes ago...it's their Death Row album and I'm sure you already know it, but damn this band is amazing.

I bow to Wolf Hoffman's greatness. I had no idea. Holy shit that guy can fry brains with his guitar playing!

Any suggestions for other great albums by these guys?

jesus christ.

Balls to the Wall is the best guitar recording ever.

Balls to the Wall is the best guitar recording ever.

It's always been my Accept fave.

 

[JohnnyGtar]

I have come to the conclusion that Wolf Hoffman uses Zakk Wylde for a toothpick.

I have spoken and it is so.

That is all.

Now that would take some balls... to the wall.

They've been playing this a lot on Boneyard Deep Cuts..

Love this opening and verse riff when testing out amps. Both guitar parts work so well together.

Me and my friends had a cool metalhead moment with some German kids to Accept when I was a teenager. We had come out of a Gasthaus and there were these kids listening to "Balls to the Wall" and hesdbanging to it on their boom box. We all went over and started air guitar poses and headbanging and didn't say a word to each other. After the song ended we high fived and left. It was awesome.

I like the song Teutonic Terror with the guy that took Udo's place. My friends used to see his old band back in the day.

Michael Wagener was their original guitarist

 

[Greazygeo]

Restless and Wild
Balls to The Wall
Metal Heart
Russian Roulette are the good ones imo

Don’t care for the new singer stuff.

 

[TheGreatGreen]

Some of their best tone has to be on Blood of the Nations. What an awesome sounding album.

I've always thought of them as a metal AC/DC. Great band.

 

[thenine]

HUGE Fan! Seen them many times. Wolf is notoriously underrated. The opening to Neon Nights sounds like a fucking demon coming through your front door.

Don’t sleep on the new stuff it’s good too. Blood of the Nations, Blind Rage, Stalingrad,… it’s all good.

 

[Beyond Black]

jesus christ.

Balls to the Wall is the best guitar recording ever.

Absolutely, the best metal guitar tone ever recorded.

 

[EyesOfTheSouth!]

I freaking love the Udo era. Bought their self-titled debut from 1979 just because it had a lady holding a big ass chainsaw on the cover. Been hooked ever since.

Check out the debut if you like catchy, hard driving rock. Still a regular in my rotation.

Kind of lost interest after Udo left. The new stuff is killer, but it’s that feeling when one of your favorite bands loses a defining member. Hard to listen after that.

Breaker is a great album

Revisit Breaker, it’s a great album.

 

[Greazygeo]

Revisit Breaker, it’s a great album.

Will break it out one of these days.

Definitely their best album. Metal Heart is pretty good.

Wow, I knew he engineered / produced their stuff but I did not know this.
