│║ Description : ║ │
│║ ║ │
│║ German titans Accept are gearing up to release ║ │
│║ their 15th studio album, æThe Rise of ChaosÆ on ║ │
│║ August 4th in a very special style. The band ║ │
│║ will be playing parts of the album live as part ║ │
│║ of their three-part set at Wacken Open AirÆs A ║ │
│║ Night to Remember on the night of August 3rd. ║ │
│║ What a treat for Wacken pilgrims! This is an ║ │
│║ exciting record with great new material that ║ │
│║ will make Accept fans very happy. ║ │
│║ ║ │
│║ Visually, this recordÆs cover is consistent with ║ │
│║ AcceptÆs style. It might look familiar to ║ │
│║ European fans, as it is the artwork of the bands ║ │
│║ last stage set, now lying in ruins. The cover ║ │
│║ highlights the theme behind the album as ║ │
│║ described recently by guitarist Wolf Hoffmann: ║ │
│║ ôàThe Rise of Chaos is something I have been ║ │
│║ thinking about often. It describes a condition ║ │
│║ which is slowly spreading around the world. With ║ │
│║ the stage setup on our latest European tour, we ║ │
│║ wanted to portray rather dystopian and destroyed ║ │
│║ scenery. If you now take a look at our new ║ │
│║ cover, itÆs the same imagery. This time however ║ │
│║ you can also spot the invisible destruction that ║ │
│║ we feel more and more in these times, as well as ║ │
│║ the visible destruction.ö ║ │
│║ ║ │
│║ The first song on æThe Rise of ChaosÆ is ôLive ║ │
│║ by the Sword.ö The introduction to this song is ║ │
│║ trademark Accept; big drums and loud guitars. As ║ │
│║ the first riffs come in, the cadence of this ║ │
│║ track and the record is set to headbanging! ║ │
│║ Enter Mark Tornillo whose gritty vocals bring ║ │
│║ life to the song with snappy and concise lyrics. ║ │
│║ ôLive by the Swordö has an addictive anthemic ║ │
│║ quality to it. The chorus arrives and itÆs ║ │
│║ complete with all the trademark Accept ║ │
│║ hallmarks; a simple but still epic, and very ║ │
│║ easily chant-able ôif you live by the sword/you ║ │
│║ will die by the sword.ö Wolf HoffmannÆs first ║ │
│║ solo of the album is short and sweet, and fits ║ │
│║ ôLive by the Swordö well. A great start to the ║ │
│║ album.s ║ │
│║ ║ │
│║ Title track ôThe Rise of Chaosö was recently ║ │
│║ released digitally by the band and is a high ║ │
│║ energy track with a good tempo. HoffmannÆs ║ │
│║ guitar soars over the opening riffs, as Tornillo ║ │
│║ growls into the first verse. Highlights ║ │
│║ including TornilloÆs high pitched wail over the ║ │
│║ chorus, Peter BaltesÆ thundering basslines and ║ │
│║ Chris WilliamsÆ heavy drums. Accept have ║ │
│║ recently revealed a video to ôThe Rise of Chaosö ║ │
│║ to add to the songÆs experience. ║ │
│║ ║ │
│║ ôNo Regretsö begins with the rat-a-tat of ║ │
│║ WilliamsÆ snare drum. This track has a good ║ │
│║ balance of heavy riffs broken up with a slower ║ │
│║ pre-chorus tempo. Lyrics like ôIÆve seen fame, ║ │
│║ misfortune, love and pain, but one thing still ║ │
│║ remains the same/nothing to forget/IÆve got no ║ │
│║ regretsö gives an air of reflection amidst the ║ │
│║ frantic nature of the song. TornilloÆs screech ║ │
│║ over the chorus at the end of the song once ║ │
│║ again showcases the strength in his voice. ║ │
│║ ║ │
│║ If there is one thing about the album that seems ║ │
│║ strange, itÆs ôAnalogue Man.ö Having tech ║ │
│║ phrases written into a metal song is a strange ║ │
│║ combination, and hearing Tornillo sing about ║ │
│║ cloud storage and data plans sounds out of ║ │
│║ place. Having said that, musically ôAnalogue ║ │
│║ Manö is excellent, and the lyric ôDonÆt need no ║ │
│║ wifi/just want my hifiö is really fun. I think ║ │
│║ IÆll need to listen to this one a few more times ║ │
│║ to get over my mental image of our analogue man ║ │
│║ struggling with connecting his laptop to ║ │
│║ OneDrive. ║ │
│║ ║ │
│║ Penultimate track ôCarry the Weightö explodes ║ │
│║ into existence with adrenaline-filled guitars. ║ │
│║ Within the frenzied pace of this track and ║ │
│║ despite the rage in TornilloÆs lyrics, thereÆs a ║ │
│║ softness in the end line of the chorus ôàdonÆt ║ │
│║ carry the weight itÆll turn your heart to ║ │
│║ stone.ö The classical influence is present here ║ │
│║ too, something I hear more consistently ║ │
│║ throughout this record, perhaps since HoffmannÆs ║ │
│║ release of æHeadbangers SymphonyÆ in 2016. ║ │
│║ ôCarry the Weightö is an excellent song and a ║ │
│║ highlight of the record. ║ │
│║ ║ │
│║ Overall, æThe Rise of ChaosÆ is a powerful ║ │
│║ addition to AcceptÆs discography. ItÆs got all ║ │
│║ the aspects of the band that I love: powerful ║ │
│║ riffs, anthemic choruses, with a hint of ║ │
│║ classical influence. IÆm impressed with the ║ │
│║ strength of TornilloÆs vocals in this record and ║ │
│║ the slightly sassy vibe in the lyrics throughout ║ │
│║ the record. I love AcceptÆs commitment to their ║ │
│║ own development, while remaining true to who ║ │
│║ they are. When asked about the albumÆs ║ │
│║ development at the end of 2016, Hoffmann said ║ │
│║ ôweÆre trying to sound how we always sound, just ║ │
│║ better and stronger than ever.ö æThe Rise of ║ │
│║ ChaosÆ is indeed a strong sounding Accept. Fans ║ │
│║ of the band will appreciate this record, and ║ │
│║ those lucky enough to see it played live will be ║ │
│║ in for a real treat. ║ │
