“Four years ago, we decided to start Accept anew,” states the band. “Of course, we hoped to reach the fans of heavy metal and leave a few more marks in its history. None of us would have thought that it would come to this.  We’d like to thank all who gave us enormous strength and the will to continue on order to make this happen.”

Blind Rage was produced, engineered, mixed and mastered by Andy Sneap, and features cover artwork by Dan Goldsworthy.
