Bio:

Accept is a German heavy metal band from the town of Solingen, originally assembled by former vocalist Udo Dirkschneider, guitarist Wolf Hoffmann and bassist Peter Baltes. Their beginnings can be traced back to the late 1960s. The band played an important role in the development of speed metal, being part of the German heavy metal scene, which emerged in the early to mid-1980s.Following their disbandment in 1997 and short-lived reunion in 2005, Accept reunited again in 2009 with former T.T. Quick frontman Mark Tornillo replacing Dirkschneider and released their two highest charting albums to date, Blood of the Nations and Stalingrad.They have sold over 17 million albums worldwide

Album:

Eat the Heat is the eighth studio album by German heavy metal band Accept, released in 1989. It was recorded at Dierks Studios in Cologne from September 1988 to January 1989. Although Jim Stacey is presented as rhythm guitar player in the album line-up, the album credits also state that all guitar work on the album was played by Wolf Hoffmann. Stacey did perform second guitar live with the band. Until 2010's Blood of the Nations, this was Accept's only album without Udo Dirkschneider as lead vocalist. U.D.O. contributes with crowd vocals on "Turn the Wheel". U.D.O. has also covered the song "X-T-C" on the 2001 compilation A Tribute to Accept II. Accept later recorded "Generation Clash II" based on "Generation Clash" with Udo Dirkschneider on vocals for their 1994 album Death Row. U.D.O. will still regularly perform tracks from this album, including "X-T-C".When the band decides to change it's musical direction to more softer direction, the sight is not usually pretty. When Udo left Accept and formed his own solo unit U.D.O, the general opinion was that both parties will suffer. Especially when Udo told rumors that Accept was going to change their style to Bon Jovi direction. It's true that Accept has gone to more American direction, but it's still heavy. Many people will pass this album because of the new vocalist.For some people, disbanding the band would be a better option than getting a new vocalist. After a brief period of Rob Armitage as a singer, Accept hired the unknown american singer named David Reece. Reece's vocal range places somewhere between AC/DC's Brian Johnson and Maiden's Bruce Dickinson. Reece trying to be Udo is a doomed idea, but he doesn't even try to be like Udo. He has his own style, which is actually good. Guitarist Jörg Fischer has also being replaced, by american Jim Stacey. The rest of the line-up is normal (Hoffman, Baltes, Kaufmann).It seems that different versions of the album have different covers and different song lists. This review tells about the version what I have. The album doesn't even look like it's from Accept. There's a band posing on the cover, and macho-Reece lying at the band's feet. The album starts with quiet guitar, which can't be even thought from the band like Accept. Then the band starts it's engine with the crushing "X-T-C". "X-T-C" reveals that the band has some totally new energy. Reece appears to be a good singer. He fits to Accept's new direction. Next song has bass driven intro, just like "Head over Heels". Song's name is "Generation clash". "Generation clash" is a pure Accept classic. Riff is awesome! "Chain reaction" isn't so good, it's too ordinary heavy song, but it's faster than two previous ones. "Love sensation" sounds like it's a power ballad, and it is. It isn't too sweet, because Reece's voice isn't fit for ballads, just like Udo's. "Turn the wheel is basic, american heavy-influenced heavy song. It gets sometimes quiet, only for getting loud again."Prisoner" is too similar to "Turn the wheel", with the exception that this one has intriguing keyboards in the background, and the chorus is good. Then what can you expect from the track named "Mistreated"? A ballad? Correct. Reece's voice fails on this track, he tries to sound like David Coverdale of Whitesnake. On this track, Accept temporarily turns into Whitesnake. David Coverdale actually sung the song named "Mistreated" while he was in Deep Purple! Half of the song is pure crap, the other is too average. Accept truly has changed their style, otherwise they wouldn't record a song titled "Stand 4 what U R". After depressive "Mistreated", this even sounds like it's same song. Old Accept wouldn't never recorded this. Any glam metal band could have recorded this. I was afraid that the next song would be the same crap. The next song is heavier, it has better riffs and even better chorus. But it's too happy to be named "Hellhammer". The last song "D-Train" is fast and heavy, and much better than the previous tracks. What a perfect ending.Accept doesn't sound like Accept anymore. Reece is a good singer, but there are some limitations for him. And the bassist Peter Baltes usually has sung on the Accept albums, but not on this, and that's a shame. This line-up never recorded a second album, because the band split-up. Chemistry between Reece and the original members of the band failed. This a good album, but it could have been better. It doesn't even sound Accept anymore.
