Episode 2: Accept - Metal Heart

Accept was one of the most popular heavy metal bands in Europe, and in fact the world, and they remain so today.  There is one major exception: the United States.  Balls to the Wall went Gold in the U.S., and with Accept pursuing a decidedly more commercial sound, 1985's Metal Heart should have pushed them over the top.  Instead, despite being one of the band's favorite albums, it pushed them toward their initial breakup.
