German Heavy Metal Band Accept will be at Concert Pub North this Saturday. CPNorthOfficial accepttheband
Accept in 2022: Christopher Williams, Philip Shouse, Mark Tornillo, Wolf Hoffmann, Uwe Lulis and Martin Motnik.During the pandemic, bands had to come up with creative ways to record and perform. The heavy metal men of Accept already had half a new record in the can before scattering, but months later they gathered in Nashville where leader/guitarist Wolf Hoffmann lived to finish the tracks.
There’s even a semi-ballad in “The Best is Yet to Come”—with vocalist Mark Tornillo being sweet and salty in the same chorus. “It isn’t really a full-blown ballad, but it’s unusual for us, so we put it on,” Hoffman says. The German-bred Accept was formed in 1976 when Hoffman was all of 16 years old. The lineup has changed wildly since then, and the current crew includes Hoffman, Tornillo, Uwe Lulis , Christopher Williams , Martin Motnik and recently added third guitarist Philip Shouse.
Recently, Accept’s Teutonic brethren in the Scorpions played Houston as part of a farewell tour, and indeed the two bands are often lumped together as practitioners of “classic German heavy metal” . But is that just an easy way of forcing two bands together based simply on geography? Hoffmann has some thoughts.
Speaking of geography, Hoffmann calls audiences in the south and Texas in particular “great.” And has a theory as to why—it has to do with heat.
