Comments for Accept, Predator

Good News: This album is now available as US release! (addition to album data: running time 48:16. There is Japanese release with extra track). As to the music itself, this is probably the best album since Metal Heart, and definitely the best of post-breakup Accept. What pleasantly surprised me is diversity of the music - from AC/DC-style to high-probe thrash and other metal styles, few songs are written in style new to Accept (i.e. "Primitive") but they are built into album well. To the weak sides I would attribute poor sound engineering (sometimes Udo is almost lost in guitar riffs. Of course Wolf is a great guitarist, but... nevertheless). Well, hopefully there is more albums to come!

Wolf is still alone on guitar, and he sounds better and fresher than ever.A nice surprise is Peter Baltes vocals on Lay it down,It aint over yet and Primitive. Udo sounds also fresh, thats true.The replacer for Stefan Kaufmann, M Cartellone(Damn Yankes)makes his best to put in drums like Kaufmann.
