ACCEPT have announced a Swiss show the day before their AC/DC opening slot in Stuttgart, Germany; on June 12th the band will perform at Club Z7 in Pratteln. The band's complete tour schedule can be viewed below.

Accept have released their new video, 'Teutonic Terror', from their forthcoming album, Blood Of The Nations.

The video, shot in March and directed by Dave Blass of Grid41.com, promises to be the "most metal" Accept video ever. Asked about the "story, or theme" behind the video, the director said: "We had all of these cool ideas for stories about a post apocalyptic world, hot girls in Mad Max gear and cool visuals and the more we worked it the more we kept coming back to the basics... this is Accept, not MÖTLEY CRÜE, there are people all over the world that have waited years to see this band again, and every second that we cut away to some story that is really just filler anyway, we are missing what is really important. People want to see Wolf Hoffmann shredding his flying V, they want to see new singer Mark Tornillo singing a new Accept song, and they want to see the band ripping into the new track. So I said screw the story, get me some fire, get me some tanks and lets rock it"

The video can be seen below:

Blood Of Nations, now has a tentative North American release date scheduled for September 14th. Andy Sneap, the international reowned UK producer (MEGADETH, BULLET FOR MY VALENTINE, MACHINE HEAD, EXODUS, KILLSWITCH ENGAGE) produced Blood Of The Nations. 14 songs - proof of a new Accept decade, brutal and melodic at the same time- in a classical style, but with a modern sound.
