Double album on coke bottle green vinyls with gatefold cover. Limited 300 copies
Special circumstances often lead to very special albums. This is certainly true for Too Mean To Die, which of course alludes to the Corona period, although in a different way than one might assume. The title track is a classic Accept cracker: dynamic and unwavering, turned up to eleven! Zombie Apocalypse, also relentless and hard, strikes the same note in the band’s signature style. The first single is different. Titled The Undertaker, its a terrific mid-tempo number with great vocals and a built-in character that chugs along – certain to deliver some memorable live moments! According to Wolf Hoffmann its one of the most catchy, pleasing pieces of the album. Just how varied the Accept guitar trio performs on the album is proven by one of the secret highlights: The Best Is Yet To Come – a beguiling ballad in which Mark Tornillo is at his best. The metal world knows that Mark can scream like no other, but here it shows once again that the frontman can also sing magnificently. So if there’s one thing you can say about Accept is that they have mastered the formula for creating heavy metal albums with surgical precision. I don’t know how they do it, but they just keep getting better and better. I know this just came out, but I can’t help but wonder what they will do next.
