New video released for Fall Of The Empire, tour dates below

German metallers Accept have announced the addition of guitarist Uwe Lulis and drummer Christopher Williams to the group's ranks.

Beyond - Fatal Power of Death (Iron Bonehead Productions)

Teutonic Death Metal for die-hards.

Beyond is a relatively new band from Germany whose members use obscure names as R., R.

Bassist Tobias Exxel loves to have a laugh – and so do Edguy. Fresh from a US tour, Tobi sits down and chats with Metal As Fuck about our (and seemingly their) favorite profane expression, expressing our enthusiasm for a certain music genre.

Tobias Exxel misses the United States. “I’m sitting at my home in Germany,” he tells me. “It’s cold, the weather isn’t very good.
