Pretty good tune (minus the glitches from the upload itself). The band has been on a nice roll since Mark joined the band. Hopefully this new one is as strong as the last three albums.

Wow. Just checking in, but still definitely nothing I like about that. Who'd have thunk they could have found a vocalist as bad as that other dude? The ad when they were looking for a new singer must surely have stipulated: "Must be a terrible vocalist."

ACCEPT%2B-%2BThe%2BRise%2BOf%2BChaos%2B%

 

Continuing the post-reunion run of albums that has firmly re-established ACCEPT as modern guardians of old-school values, new album "The Rise Of Chaos" is unlikely to attract those who remain impervious to the atavistic truth of heavy metal, but Maiden and Priest aside, it’s hard to think of another band of this vintage that hit the bull’s-eye with such consistency.

 

Once again produced to speaker-flattening perfection by Andy Sneap, this latest batch of Teutonic anthems is easily their strongest since 2010’s Blood Of The Nations.

 

Opener 'Die By The Sword' (not a Slayer cover, incidentally) and the pummelling 'Hole In The Head' set the tone, with countless thrillingly brutish riffs and moments of sublime melodic showmanship from evergreen lead guitarist Wolf Hoffmann, before the title track briskly encapsulates the whole Accept experience via five minutes of timeless and towering old-school muscle.

 

The rest, from the wonderfully goofy 'Koolaid' to epic finale, 'Race To Extinction', are equally exhilarating and further proof, as if it were needed, that in ACCEPT hands traditional metal is alive, kicking and as exciting as ever.

 

Yeah, short review, let the music do the talking.

 

You won't get better true metal than this these days.

 

Highly Recommended

Agreed. :beerbang:

Blood of the Nations was in my top 5 and Blind Rage top 20 during those respective years. This is a good album, but for me it isn't quite as strong as their last couple. The songs contain some monster riffs and these guys have put out some of the best straight ahead metal over the last decade.  So, if you are a fan of the genre I recommend checking this out.

    • No official release yet so don't know when exactly the album is supposed to come out but I'm assuming it's this year. I'm sure you're all brimming with excitement.
    • I posed him that exact question on his discord page as to what his future plans are.... He said he plans to relax for a bit, do his You Tube thing, keep writing new music and then will decide how to release that music.  He said as of now he's thinking he'll either do a solo thing or form his own band.  He didn't say this but I'd sort of envision a Daughtry type "band" where he kind of puts a band behind his name. So essentially, I think you're right on with his plans.  Ultimately, I think like you say, the control is a big part of it.  I think he wants to be able to operate on his own schedule to maintain his health and family obligations. It'll be interesting to see what sound the new material takes on.  It would seem logical to think it would be rock/melodic rock of some sort since that's really the type of music he's built his following with but he certainly has shown he can dabble anywhere from AOR to metal.
    • Glad I got to see them with Erik in front. All the best to him, definitely looking forward to his future outings when he is fully recovered. Would be cool to see him form his own band, where he could take control, and play around in different genres, from full on metal, to soothing AOR, the guy is so versatile.
    • Remedy - Crying Heart. One I've just seen thanks to the Iridium channel.  From the upcoming album. It's a Killer.     
    • Let's not forget Benny Hill. What a Magnificent show that was.    
    • Yeah... I dunno about that. It would be too cringe. Who knows? If I'm high enough, I might submit a video. 
    • Yep great track and if you fancy being in the video for "The Feeling" nows your chance.  
    • I'm proud to say that I had this single when I was a mere 8 years old. KISS were big down here then. Norman Gunston is Iconic for Aussies of my vintage.  The face ln the bottom left says it all. Hilarious.     
    • All in all, this is a great story. Erik played a brilliant, well received, albeit short cameo with one of our favourite bands.  It was a win, win, win. A win for us, a win for Skid Row (the album certainly put them back on the map) and a win for Erik, adding this to his already impressive resume. The fact that it was so amicable with both parties is also great to see.
    • I really like this album - not every song on it but there are some surprisingly catchy melodies all over. Personally I think the singer adds great energy to the mix. It reminds me of the earlier Bai Bang ("closer to you")
