Yet another all-star Accept cover has landed online. Below you can hear Ghost vocalist Tobias Forge join members of the German heavy metal force alongside Anthrax bassist Frank Bello and Korn drummer Ray Luzier. That collective delivered a rendition of Accept‘s 1980 cut “Save Us“. Accept vocalist/guitarist Wolf Hoffmann commented about getting to work with that trio:
“Tobias was not really on my radar. Obviously, I know Ghost, and they’re huge, but last year he turned up at one of our shows when we played in Stockholm, and we were chatting a little bit, and he said that his favorite song was ‘Save Us,’ and at one point. he was considering using it as a cover song on one of their albums, but it never panned out. ‘Save Us?’ I don’t even remember that song. Nobody has even mentioned that song! I had to go back and listen to it. After I saw a Ghost show, it all made sense to me. It really fits his style and I could really imagine him doing that song really well. He’s right, it’s a fun song!”
This cover is part of Accept‘s forthcoming “Teutonic Titans 1976-2026” tribute album, which is set for a September 04th release on Napalm. Members of Metallica, Judas Priest, Pantera, The Smashing Pumpkins and more have all contributed to that compilation.
