VH1’s That Metal Show recently presented a show which showmen Eddie Trunk, Jim Florentine and Don Jamieson debated what they think are the best comeback albums in hard rock and heavy metal history. They also asked the same questions from their viewers on VH1.com.
That programme made us at Metal Shock Finland think about this question; “What Was The Most Shocking Comeback Album In Heavy Metal History?” So we returned to our basement and asked our staff. Now we are pleased to announce the result. ACCEPT‘s “Blood Of The Nations” album is 100% Metal Shock Finland‘s “The Best Shocking Comeback Album” in the whole of heavy metal history.
Metal Shock Finland‘s Chief Editor, Mohsen Fayyazi commented:
“That shocking news, I still can remember it. “ACCEPT Is Back”, It was shocking enough to make me jump 1 metre high. I’m glad they did it and how awesome they did! Yeah that was bloody great shocking news.”
Senior Manager, Ali Blackdiamond stated the following:
“When I heard this album it literally blew me away! The power and energy of the band and the music is mind blowing, every song is brilliant! Then when I saw ACCEPT touring and playing the songs live, it was the icing on the cake, I loved every minute!”

“Blood Of The Nations” is the band’s first studio recording since 1996, featuring new vocalist Mark Tornillo, drummer Stefan Schwarzmann and also guitarist Herman Frank, since Balls To The Wall in 1983. The album was produced by the legendary Andy Sneap and released on August 20, 2010 via Nuclear Blast. “Blood Of The Nations” has been met with many positive reviews and it featured on many charts some of which are listed below
