Accept – Metal Heart (2021 Black Vinyl Reissue, AFM Records)

Description

Originally released in 1985, Metal Heart is one of Accept’s defining albums — a perfect fusion of German precision, anthemic songwriting, and Udo Dirkschneider’s unmistakable vocal attack.

The 2021 AFM Records reissue brings this classic back to vinyl on black wax, housed in a gatefold sleeve with updated remastering. The sound is punchy, tight, and powerful, giving new life to the album’s iconic riffs and melodic leads.

Featuring some of Accept’s most legendary tracks:

• “Metal Heart”

• “Midnight Mover”

• “Up to the Limit”

• “Living for Tonite”

•  

This is a cornerstone of European heavy metal — melodic, aggressive, and endlessly replayable.
