Editorial Reviews

Product Description
Formed in Solingen, Germany in the early 70s by wild and crazy frontman, Udo Dirkschneider, Accept forged their way to the top of the 80s metal ranks with their brutal and heavy riffs and Udo’s trademark screeching banshee styled vocal trait. Distinctly original and instantly recognizable, Accept conquered seemingly the entire planet outside the USA. With such classic albums as Restless And Wild, Breaker, I’m A Rebel and Accept finally seeing mid-price status, those Stateside best be keeping their ears open and their balls to the wall!

Udo Dirkschneider: "This is surely the most important Accept album. Fast As A Shark is considered by many to be the very first speed metal song written, not to mention the unusual intro (which was sung by a 12 year old Dieter Dierks together with an girl who remains unknown to us). You could say that Princess of the Dawn and Fast as a Shark are considered classics today. With this album, America came calling for the first time ...and the rest is history.

All of the Accept Super Value Re-Release series feature booklets with new liner notes, historical reminiscents and comments by Udo Dirkschneider, never before seen photos and memorabilia. And all at a cool price!

5.0 out of 5 stars Does German Metal Get Any Better??!!!, January 3, 2006

By	J. D. McCargar "Metal Maniac" (Bay Area, California) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

From the moment the very first scream shatters the calm of the German folk music, you know you are in for one heck of a ride. I've been listening to Accept for nearly twenty years, and to this day, Restless and Wild makes the hair on the back of my neck stand up. From the speed of "Fast as a shark" to the galloping guitars of "restless and wild", this album will have you rocking uncontrollably! When Accept order you to "Shake your Heads", trust me, you will obey. When you hear the hammer strike the anvil in "Demon's Night", you'll feel a chill in your bones. Accept has produced some great material over the years, and Udo's solo albums have all helped satisfy my craving for his unique vocals, but in my opinion, "Restless and Wild" is the one that can't be matched. As fast as it is infectious, this album is one for the history books. Not a bad song present, raw and powerful. This album will wear you out, But trust me, you'll collapse with smile on your face.

5.0 out of 5 stars What it Meant to be Metal, February 13, 2009

By	Benjamin F. Caputo - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Arguably one of the greatest metal albums ever recorded. Having grown up in this era (class of '85) no one is more qualified to comment on "real" metal than me!

If you haven't heard this, buy it and bow down to the greatest metal opus since Motorhead did Ace of Spades.

Take that, Crue fans!
