ACCEPT Confirmed For PROGPOWER USA

March 15, 2010

Reformed German metal legends ACCEPT have been confirmed as the headliner of the ProgPower USA Kick-Off on September 9 in Atlanta, GA. This will be the band's first headline show in Atlanta in its illustrious thirty-year career. Also scheduled to appear are LEPROUS, BOREALIS and SIX MINUTE CENTURY.

Commented guitarist Wolf Hoffmann: "Something amazing has happened. We seem to have been transformed from one world into another… These new songs simply burst out of a vault that has been locked up for too long! We're not sure where [the forthcoming ACCEPT album] 'Blood of the Nations' and all this new excitement will ultimately take us; we only know one thing: We never had it this good!"
