Quick Review: Accept - Balls To The Wall (2002 Remaster)
One word review: Ooomph!

Favorite songs: Balls To The Wall, Turn Me On, Fight it Back, Losing more than you've ever had.

Quick Review: A classic which sounds occasionally dated but holds up remarkably well. Udo's powerful croak runs wild in an unrestrained and rampant way that is both enjoyable but also sporadically flaky. There's a joyful innocence to the album, the lighthearted and sometimes quite hilarious lyrics included, but it also lacks some depth. When it works it's brilliant though. A song like Turn me on has an intense and powerful build up, perfectly released in its chorus. The guitar riffs are mean enough to overshadow any shortcomings and nearly every song is strong enough to still make an impression today.

Style: Heavy Metal

Rating: 7.5/10
