HARD ROCK INTERVIEWS 2014 - ACCEPT GUITARIST WOLF HOFFMANN
ACCEPT'S WOLF HOFFMANN TALKS TO THE ROCKPIT IF YOU HAVEN'T HEARD THE STUNNING NEW ALBUM 'BLIND RAGE' YET THEN YOU NEED TO - IT JUST MIGHT BE ACCEPT'S BEST... WE CAUGHT UP WITH WOLF TO TALK ABOUT THAT, COUNTRY MUSIC, RITCHIE BLACKMORE AND THE IMPENDING FIRST EVER AUSTRALIAN TOUR! |
---|
Accept back in the day was always a band I enjoyed but since reforming in 2009 they are a band not to be missed - if you want the very best of Metal then it's heading downunder later this year. And if you want to hear what could well be your Metal album of the year then we suggest that you check out 'Blind Rage' - it could just be Accept's best! |

Mark: Hi, Wolf thanks for speaking to us today. We love the new album, can’t stop playing it, “Blind Rage” is the perfect title for the music that’s on there. How pleased are you with the new album, now it’s been out a few days? The reception I’ve seen has been great!
|
|
Mark: That’s crazy; it’s almost as many people as live in Australia!! (yes, please don't write in about that one Mark was of course exaggerating!) Does the feeling you get, playing live, change over the years? Or is it still everything it always was, for you?
|
|
Mark: The thing I like about bands like Accept, is that there aren’t just us old guys out there, there are lots of younger people getting in to “real metal” as I call it! When we spoke last time, you’d just released “Blood of the Nations” and you said there are some songs you can be working on forever, and sometimes a riff or a song will just come to you, were there any moments like that on the new album?
|
|
Mark: I think the mark of a good album is when you sit down and can’t pick your favourite track, because there are just so many great songs on there. Are there any particular tracks on there that you’re looking forward to playing live?
|
|
Mark: One of our internet questions was what was it that started you off in the first place, was there a defining moment where you knew you had to be in a rock band?
