January 27, 2011

Reformed heavy metal legends ACCEPT performed their classic 1982 album "Restless And Wild" in its entirety — including such trend-setting gems as "Fast As A Shark", "Restless & Wild" and "Princess Of The Dawn" — this past Tuesday, January 25 at Z7 in Pratteln, Switzerland. These classic songs were supplemented with several new songs from their latest album, "Blood Of The Nations".

Fan-filmed video footage of the concert can be viewed below.

ACCEPT kicked off its massive "Blood Of The Nations 2011 Tour" of Europe on January 14. The shows in Osnabrück, Bad Arolsen and Antwerp were packed with passionate metal-loving fans. The two-hour-plus performance pummels the fans with classics like "Balls To The Wall", "Metal Heart" and the immortal "Princess Of the Dawn", completed with the pedal-to-the-metal bombast of ACCEPT's new hits "Teutonic Terror" and "The Abyss".

The entire "Blood Of the Nations 2011 Tour" will involve over 80 mind-blowing concerts around the globe.
