ACCEPT’s first show will kick off the eleventh annual ProgPower USA festival in Atlanta.

[New lead vocalist] Mark Tornillo inspires us to get it all out in a way we have not been challenged before. We can’t wait to be on stage with him!!!! He is the new kid on the block and he is the reason we are back again. It is such a relief, such vitamin shot!!! And if we could, we would never stop!!!” When asked what has surprised the band the most about their fans, Hoffman responded enthusiastically, “NO doubt about it, the biggest surprise is the way they make us feel welcomed.

    Hello metalheads.

    Instead of? a Metal rebellion i propose? a new? plan.

    1.??? Don’t? bash other metal? artists, we must unite! We cant fight against pop music? if? we? arent even together

    2. Watch? more and more metal?? videos to get it? to the top of? the youtube vid list

    If you like? this idea,? thumbs it up JUST so people can see it, and also spread it around if you like this? idea

    Lets show that metal? kicks ass!

    Copy this text?? in every Metal video,SPREAD?? THIS MESSAGE!!

    I’m a big Udo fan, and I really really had my doubts about this incarnation of the band when I heard they were going for it without Udo, because Udo didn’t want to do more Accept. I thought it had to fail like it did with that Dave Reece character back in 1989 with ‘Eat the Heat’. I was wrong!

    Accept is back, no doubt about it. I was proven wrong, and even as a hardcore Accept w. Udo and U.D.O. fan I must say this reborn Accept and the new albums is brilliant. Seeing them in a month. :)

    the crowd sucks

  9. Telefiend says:

    Hell, the background is Raven live playing Run Silent Run Deep and Mind over Metal before it goes to Accept. How cool is that?

  10. Telefiend says:

    Is that a live version of Raven’s Run Silent Run Deep in the background of the introduction?

    @MidnightMasque you’re right ! totally agree with you ! U.D.O album are very bad !

    Wolf is the best and Peter is really good too !!

  26. Zodi77 says:

    @mcaf5009 I think what you’re referring to is the guys giving the finger at 2:50. I’ve watched it a few times. I think whats happening is that they’re posing for a picture, except the guy taking the picture is far enough to the right of the camera that you can’t see him. They’re just standing there not moving. They’re not giving Accept the finger.

  27. mcaf5009 says:

    thers at around 2:30 in the crowd disrespecting ACCEPT

  28. metalgodmalgrat says:

    a heavy metal german bruce willis lol this band kicks ass

  46. MetalAugusto says:

    Accept lo mejor del heavy metal Aleman!!!

  47. ACCEPT1979 says:

    @Rocketcat385 Schon sehr lange … und es fällt auf, dass Mark live qualitativ anders als auf dem Album klingt. Mir ist schon bewusst, dass abgesehen von der David-Reece-Periode die Stimme von Accept immer eine Reibeisenstimme war, aber in dem Video klingt Mark so als ob er vorher zu lange zu laut gesungen hätte – besonders bei den typischen hohen Udo-like-Passagen.
