Too Mean To Die

When ACCEPT first launched at the end of the 70s, the metal genre didn't exist - at first the band could only be labelled with the (quality) seal "crazy loud and crazy wild". Today we know that this was (and is) metal par excellence. And we also know that ACCEPT opened the door to thrash metal, inspiring giants such as Metallica whose guitarist Kirk Hammett recently stated in the German magazine "Gitarre & Bass" that Accept's guitarist Wolf Hoffmann had a huge influence on himACCEPT have been a worldwide music phenomenon for more than 40 years. They still impress with razor-sharp guitar licks and a steel-hard sound. The band created all-time metal classics like "Balls To The Wall", "Metal Heart" and many more. In addition, the band has sold millions of records, achieved gold status in the USA, top 10 chart positions worldwide and a number 1 album (Germany, Finland) for "Blind Rage" (2014). "Too Mean To Die" is the band's fifth album featuring US vocalist and front man Mark Tornillo & was recorded in the world music capital of Nashville with British master producer Andy Sneap. Sneap, who works for Judas Priest and Megadeth among others.
