April 6th 2012 is the day! The new ACCEPT album "STALINGRAD" will be released worldwide. The previous record "Blood Of The Nations", which was released in August 2010 was a huge success and nominated over 50 times worldwide for the "Hardrock and Metal Album Of The Year" being the most successful album of ACCEPT history. Following an extensive 180 show tour that took ACCEPT round the world twice, the band retreated into the studio to produce a longplayer that shows them in their most purist form.
