I bought this album on LP when it first came out in -86 but since then I have sold it, don't remember when. Probably I did not think it was good enough to keep. I have never been a big fan of Accept even though I think they've done some good songs and I like that kind of raw heavy metal. Really like the cover with the band playing Russian roulette with "Russian" clothes! This I consider to be the best Accept-album.

1)TV war (8,5) Heavy, fast, short and intense double bass drum song with great strong raw vocals from Udo and a perfect guitarsolo. What a start of this album!

2)Monsterman (7,0) Midtempo, nice riff but too much repetition of the refrain.   

3)Russian roulette (8,5) Cool intro with only Udo and a simple riff building up to the heavy tempo. Udo's voice is at it's best here! A great heavy song with a fantastic powerful bridge and refrain!

4)It's hard to find a way (7,5) Starts like a powerballad but turns into a melodic hardrocker. Very strong refrain as on all songs on this album.

5)Aming high (7,0) Heavy and powerful, strong refrain but again too much repetition of the refrain.

6)Heaven is hell (7,5) 7 minutes long with a simple powerful riff, heavy and a wonderful spoken part where Udo really sounds like he's the devil himself! 7,5

7)Another second to be (7,0) Midtempo metal-song.

8)Walking in the shadow (7,0) Great hardrockintro to an okey song with an, again, strong refrain but the song is nothing special.

9)Man enough to cry (6,5) Effective simple riffing, midtempo. Nothing special. The songs gets lamer at the end and I start to loose interest.

10)Stand tight (7,0) Just another song. A marching one wich suits the band. 7,0

Score: 7,35
