THE REVIEW

ACCEPT ACCEPT ACCEPT, GREAT TEUTONIC HEAVY METAL!!!!!!!!

The album in question is nothing more than the classic from the CRAZY KRUKKETS AAAH! A truly ballsy record for the legendary Accept with U.D.O. at the vocal helm and a GREAT GUITARIST like Wolf, and of course the rest of the group, who have never been indifferent, but let's get into the album.

The dances open with Balls to the Wall, iconic as ever, a unique bombardment just like London Leatherboys and Fight it Back, 3 outstanding eardrum-splitting tracks, then passing through the last two gems of side A of the album like Head Over Heels and Losing More Than You've Ever Had which do not go unnoticed in the album.

Side B, on the other hand, welcomes us with the other splendid gem of LOVE CHILD which I write in bold because it truly deserves it, as does LOOSERS AND WINNERS, THEY REALLY KICK ASS. The remaining tracks, namely Turn Me On, The Guardian of the Night, and Winter Dreams are also noteworthy even if not at the level of the others, the cornerstones, but still they hold their own brilliantly.

It remains to be said that ACCEPT were and still are an amazing band and they keep getting better every year, with their music that increasingly engages people and for this, they deserve much praise, and then let's face it, for those who believe in this, the old KRUKKETS, AND I'M NOT JUST TALKING ABOUT ACCEPT, HAVE ALWAYS BEEN ONE OR TWO STEPS AHEAD OF EVERYONE, their music seriously rocks, LISTEN TO THEM IF YOU HAVE THE CHANCE, THEY TRULY DESERVE IT.

STAY METALLL!!!

 It is definitely in pieces like this that Accept show their best.

 Accept demonstrate their ability to transition from aggressive pieces to calmer ones with truly disarming ease.

 It’s way back in 1983 when the Teutonic Accept give birth to a great album, actually, I’d say a masterpiece of Heavy Metal.

 An album I will always remember without beating around the bush or any nonsense, a real war machine.
