The 1981 Listening Post - Accept - Breaker

 Accept - Breaker


#103

March 16 1981

Accept

Breaker

Genre: Insert Spinal Tap Joke

3 out of 5



Highlights:

Breaker

Run if You Can



It takes Accept 4 albums to not sound like hot, derivative garbage. Given what I know they are capable of in the future I’m willing to stick with em. Well, that’s the job, isn’t it? They have an acclaimed record in 1982, I know that. 

But this is 1981. And, once again, Accept proves they can shred and Udo Dirkschneider can shriek. “Run If You Can” gives Maiden a run for their money. You can actually hear them figuring it out. 


The title track is a keeper, though. Wow. And points for the stupid but hilariously so lyrics on “Son of a Bitch”.
