Customer Reviews:

4 out of 5 stars Very good tribute.......2002-12-01

This is great stuff. I'd give it 5 stars but I usually reserve them for alltime classic albums. Since this is not really original music I gotta go one star less. This is the second best tribute set; second only to Century Media's Priest Tribute. Anyway, a great tribute to a great band. Scads of great covers, a few duds, and the highlight - which was a shocker to me was Sodom's cover of "I'm A Rebel". I can't stop playing this tune. It's lead me to a whole new obsession with Sodom and Onkel Tom's solo stuff. Back to the review at hand. It's great, if you're an Accept fan get it. The second CD in this series is good. Not as good as this one but pretty much required. And if you're a fan of some of the bands that appear here go ahead and get it. You might end up getting hooked on Accept!

5 out of 5 stars Good tribute album! (4.6 stars).......2000-12-30

Nuclear Blast Records managed to get lots of well-known good bands for this tribute to the best rock band ever. One of the best is Steel Prophet's rendition of "Fast As A Shark", which features the "heidi heido heida" intro played on electric guitar & also ends with the intro to "Restless & Wild". Dimmu Borgir's rendition of "Metal Heart" is awesome also, its like the original version except it has a different (very good) guitar solo. Primal Fear does an awesome rendition of Breaker also (Ralf Scheepers is one of the few vocalists who's nearly as good as Udo). Sinner's entry is also good, it doesn't add much to the song, but it's played good & the singer is great. There are a few weak ones (most notably Atrocity's rendition of "Shake Your Heads" which replaces Accept's melodies with one simple riff played repeatedly throughout the entire songs, as well as some needless synth playing, and Sacred Steel's rendition of "Fight It Back" which is pretty much an exact copy of the original done in horrible thin guitar tones & ridiculous squeaky vocals) but they're outweighed by the good renditions. I'd recommend buying it.

2 out of 5 stars A compilation of very uneven quality........2000-03-04

I'm sorry to report that a lot of the versions on this tribute compilation are pretty substandard. You can understand why some of the bands are obscure. That being said, I can appreciate that hardcore Accept fans might still want to own this one. High-quality standouts include Steel Prophet and Sinner's versions of their respective songs.
