What a true privilege to witness two bands that helped shaped the very sound of Heavy Metal.
First off, I love Accept. The band are best known for their singles 'Balls to the Wall' and 'Midnight Mover' with Udo on vocals was awesome. I loved those growing up and cranking them on my cassette player!
Now, 50 years later the band is still around with current vocalist Mark Tornillo who has been on the band's last three albums.
He seems a perfect fit for the band and I love their songs 'Humanoid' and 'TeutonicTerror' with him.
I'm almost sure these singers were not doing backing tracks as I was right near the front of the stage. How they sing these songs with so much energy is incredible.
To be honest, the band's songs with Mark are right up there with Accept's best older songs and I love how they interact with the fans, getting them to clap and sing along.
