Product Information

Unlike regular magical powers, these ones don't scale with the number of accessories, and require at least 5 rift accessories to activate. Mark Alaimo: This is Accept's attempt to breakout into the US market. So they brought in producer Dieter Dierks. It was the right move. James Praesto: Ugh. I have been trying to get to this all week, and now I am out of time, so forgive the incoherent rambling. (It's bed time for this old fart.)

Metal Heart would see Accept achieve the perfect fusion of the fast, furious, aggressive style they pioneered on Breaker and the more anthemic chant-along style they brought out on Balls To the Wall, yielding a true classic which seems less beholden to their influences like Judas Priest. If there is a distinctive, definitively 'Accept' sound, it is to be found here." ( Metal Music Archives) Mark Mellberg: Metal Heart is a blitzkrieg to the senses. There's no doubt that Dieter put a little sheen to Accept, but the album is still fairly heavy. There's a hell of a lot of tasty riffs on Metal Heart, and they should have at least got them to Gold status like Balls To The Wall. They didn't. Popoff, Martin (1 November 2005). The Collector's Guide to Heavy Metal: Volume 2: The Eighties. Burlington, Ontario, Canada: Collector's Guide Publishing. pp.8–9. ISBN 978-1894959315. All told, Metal Heart just comes across as a collection of recycled Scorpions and AC/DC riffs and Van Halen solos and it has never really grabbed me, I'm afraid. Downhill from here on in really, until their more recent renaissance, and now we have both UDO and Accept. Win for us in my book. I love this and will score it highly!

Chris Downie: While the Scorpions deservedly hold the accolade of German metal's finest exponents, there is a compelling case to be made that Accept deserve the proverbial honourable mention, not only on the strength of the Udo-fronted era, but the late career renaissance of the last decade, for which the contribution of impressive frontman Mark Tornillo cannot be overstated. Hoffmann recalls Dieter Dierks as a very demanding producer: "We would do some pieces several dozen times trying to capture what he had in his mind for a specific section," adding: "Each song we tried different combinations of guitars, mic'ing and even strings!" [5] Roland Bearne: With this one, I have to "out" myself; I love Metal, great big fist in the air head-nodding metal. From Accept and on through the alphabet. All the Edguys, Angras, Helloweens, Rhapsodys, love 'em all. Pure escapism and fun and Accept is definitely one of the prime movers of that whole Teutonic Metal massive.

Gary Claydon: I've always thought that if ever a German version of This Is Spinal Tap were made they wouldn't have to look any further than Accept for inspiration for the titular band. It's all there really, the album covers, the song titles, the lyrics (Exhibit A: " Son of a bitch, Kiss my ass"). Up To The Limit is probably the best of them. Wrong Is Right is probably the worst but it’s a tough contest between it and Screaming For A Love Bite which has a hair metal vibe to sit alongside the atrocious lyrics.

Midnight Mover", about a drug dealer, is one of the more commercial songs on the album and was selected for a memorable music video that anticipates the bullet time filming technique by a full decade. "Just ahead of our time again!" jests Hoffmann. [5] Popoff, Martin. "Accept - Balls to the Wall". Martin Popoff.com. Archived from the original on 6 May 2006 . Retrieved 30 January 2013. Even though it sold less in the US than Balls to the Wall, it became bigger on the other side of the Atlantic. Half the bands I later came to love may not have been around, had it not been for Accept in general, or the commercial success of Metal Heart in particular. They paved the way for a younger generation that realized it was OK to be metal, but still write melodies and not compromise on the quality or integrity of their sound.With its faux classical intro, generic riffs and cliched dystopian sci-fi lyrics about metal hearts, Accept set their stall out with an entirely safe ‘Metal of the Road’ album from a competent Headbangers Ball filler band. Closer Bound to Fail is the weakest song on the second half with another faux classical intro and a weak attempt to create an anthemic sound which just comes across as ponderous. Teach Us To Survive is the most proggy entry, with plenty of energy and a jazzy bass line. The lyrics are still utter nonsense but it matters less when the music is at least interesting. It's just all... less than, compared to what came before. While the songs aren't softer, they're somehow simpler - and not in a good stripped down way. Just not a lot of nuance. The title song sets the template with verses punctuated by title-shouted choruses, then solo, chorus again and out. Album closer Bound to Fail starts out promising but ends up feeling like a rewrite of their massive hit Balls To Wall with the gang "Oh-oh-ohs" meant for chanting in arenas.
