Not Adequate Info (as proposed by hraorfan)
"What do you get while in the following math problem:
Judas Priest + ACDC = ?
The answer is Accept. A band able to merge the gritty hard rock of ACDC with the thundering speed metal of Judas Priest for a fierce, ferocious sound with the throaty screaming of dwarfish frontman Udo Dierkschneider and the ripping, roaring and raging guitar playing of Wolf Hoffman. With Balls to the Wall, it could well be easy to write this band off as just another ACDC wannabe band, but when you listen to their earlier efforts you can tell that this was a band that was trying to let go of Scorpions' coattails and find their own definable sound. They would find it on Breaker and Restless and Wild with a sound that wasn't too far removed from British counterparts Raven - a heavy, fast and pummeling sound that would, in some part, help lay the foundation of thrash metal with the early '80s." - hraorfan
ALL-TIME TOP FIVE:
1) Balls To The Wall (from Balls to the Wall)
2) Fast As A Shark (from Restless and Wild)
3) Restless And Wild (from Restless and Wild)
4) Princess Of The Dawn (from Restless and Wild)
5) Midnight Mover (from Metal Heart)
Advocated ALBUM: RESTLESS AND WILD
Highly recommended COMPILATION: RESTLESS - THE BEST
"Accept is one of those bands that should have been more popular while in the United States. Unfortunately, they became a minor one-hit wonder because they had a song that had the word 'balls' in it. A closer look reveals the smooth progression from a band trying to compete with Scorpions and wearing their Judas Priest obsession on their sleeve to an outfit that truly found their own sound and fan base (which, in Europe, was huge). We also see a band that, after three great albums, hit a creative roadblock from which they never recovered." - Ezreal
