But I have to say, it&#8217;s always easier said than done. It&#8217;s incredibly difficult to write songs that are sort of reminiscent of the past but they&#8217;re not, you know, rip-offs of your own music. That sounds incredibly very simple, but it&#8217;s really not, especially if you have a sort of history of 15 albums or whatever we have. Then there are always similarities that you have to avoid. It can&#8217;t be too close, but it can&#8217;t be too far away from it. So it&#8217;s a pretty fine line that you have to walk sometimes, but, you know, hopefully we&#8217;ll manage again.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/metalassault.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/11\/acceptband2011.jpeg\" rel=\"lightbox[149]\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-150\" title=\"acceptband2011\" src=\"http:\/\/metalassault.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/11\/acceptband2011.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"475\" height=\"321\" srcset=\"http:\/\/metalassault.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/11\/acceptband2011.jpeg 475w, http:\/\/metalassault.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/11\/acceptband2011-300x202.jpg 300w, http:\/\/metalassault.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/11\/acceptband2011-443x300.jpg 443w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 475px) 100vw, 475px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>ACCEPT\u00a0have announced\u00a0Stalingrad\u00a0as the title of their next album, due in April 2012 via\u00a0Nuclear Blast Records.
