Accept/MD, USA 2021

The heavy metal scene has finally overcome the new coronavirus pandemic and started to move forward. The latest professional shot of ACCEPT, the spearhead of this, is now available! This work was filmed at “July 3, 2021 Colombian performance.” This is a multi-camera professional shot taken when appearing at “M3 Rock Festival”. This work is the signal for the revival of the music genre “heavy metal”, but it is also a declaration of the restart of ACCEPT, its main character. First of all, let’s start with their current status, whose new work “TOO MEAN TO DIE” has been well received. 2021《“TOO MEAN TO DIE” released on January 29th》・July 2nd + 3rd/August 20th: North America (3 performances)←★Here★・December 10th + 11th: Japan (2 performances) 2022 – January 15th – February 28th: ​​Europe #1 (32 performances) – June 8th – July 29th: Europe #2 (5 performances) This is the schedule announced so far. Although the album was released at the beginning of the year, the tour was postponed one after another due to the pandemic. Things are finally starting to move, but it’s not like we’ll be running at full power all of a sudden, so first we’ll do test runs in the US and Japan. We are planning to embark on a full-fledged European tour in 2022. The Columbia performance of this work marks the beginning of such a restart. This is the second performance in a series of only three performances in North America. This work shot on such a stage is not only the most talked about best professional shot, but also the highest master among them. You might think that the image and sound quality of the latest distributed pro shots are of the perfect official quality…but that’s not the case. In fact, there seem to be differences in the masters that are currently on the market depending on their origin, and in particular, the one published on a certain major video site has good image and sound quality, but it is a bad master with a mismatch between the video and the audio. Of course, this work is different from that. It is the best version with not only the highest image and sound quality, but also 100% perfect synchronization. And the show that is drawn with such an intimate feeling is extremely powerful. Let’s also organize the set of “TOO MEAN TO DIE Tour” that appeared for the first time. Classics (7 songs) – Restless And Wild / Princess Of The Dawn / Fast As A Shark – Balls To The Wall: London Leatherboys / Balls To The Wall – Metal Heart: Midnight Mover / Metal Heart Tonillo Era (7 songs)・Blood of the Nations: Pandemic/Teutonic Terror・Stalingrad: Shadow Soldiers・Blind Rage: Final Journey・To Mean To Die: Zombie Apocalypse/Too Mean To Die /Overnight Sensation…and it looks like this. There are three new songs that are attracting attention, with a balance of 80’s and post-resurrection songs. It’s a shame that “The Undertaker”, which was played on the first day, fell, but it can’t be said to be luxurious just because it’s a festival. Another thing that caught my attention was the ensemble that evolved into a triple guitar… but again, the result was a little surprising. The players playing in this work are Wolf Hoffmann and new member Philippe Shaws, and Uwe Ruiz is not present. In next year’s European tour information, they are enthusiastic that “three guitarists will blow the virus into oblivion,” so it seems that Uwe will also be on board… In any case, there’s no way that the twins are unsatisfactory as they have been until now, and I’m actually surprised by Philippe’s skill in not only harmonizing, but also deciding on formations. Additionally, the festival itself has a sense of restart. (Perhaps they were prepared for the unlikely event of cancellation as it was the first revival of the show.) The scale is small, and it is different from the super spectacles such as “WACKEN” and “HEROES OF WORLD ROCK” that appeared before the pandemic. The number of lights and camera work are small. The atmosphere of such a festival is real, but on the other hand, the lack of gorgeous viewing angles also means that the rawness of the live performance is lacking. The sound board directly connected to the mix table, where you can hardly hear loud cheers, has a great sense of synchronization with the band, and the indifferent camera work is also used frequently for deadly close-ups. Rather, the presence of the band itself is more than just a normal professional shot. Although they are still a bit lacking in their ability to demonstrate their true potential and drive at full speed, they will be able to show it off in their performance in Japan just before their European tour. This work is a one-of-a-kind video work that is perfect for preparing for such a visit to Japan, and is the signal for the revival of heavy metal. Heavy metal music is finally returning to the world. Multi-camera professional shot of “July 3, 2021 M3 Rock Festival”. The image and sound quality are of the latest distribution professional shots, so there is no need to ask questions, and the audio quality is official, and the audio directly connected to the mix desk, which is far away from loud cheers, brings out the rawness of a live performance. Due to the absence of Uwe Ruiz, it is not the triple guitar that attracted attention, but the new member Philip Shaws is in perfect condition. You can also enjoy the new songs “Zombie Apocalypse”, “Too Mean To Die” and “Overnight Sensation” from “TOO MEAN TO DIE”, which is only the second time, in official quality.
