Accept The Change - Escapism Is A Dying Art

 listen to Inhibition by Accept the Change

Second time I post about this band, they are almost unrecognisable on this album through the progress they've made between this and their past release. Accept The Change (blog) is a modern hardcore band, pushing the envelope of the melodic branch in the direction they've chosen for themselves. To say they play an amazing mix of dark, emotional impassioned and intense music, in today's musical landscape, is like a drop on a hot plate. So you'd have to hear for yourself what sets them apart and way ahead of a lot of bands that get way more credit. Honesly, it's weird to think of these kids as the same people that made a record that's up there with my favorite ones for this entire year. But that's just exactly what they did.

Also, they've got a tour coming up with Manbearpig which is an awesome combo in two touring bands.

Accept The Change - Changing Lanes

listen to Beyond The Masses by Accept The Change, as a preview

from all the posts so far, and possibly for a long time to come, this is the least well known release posted. but the point to this and every other post, will always be that it deserves more attention. Accept The Change (Myspace) is a Belgian hardcore band with an interesting approach in between straight-forward and melodic influences. not the kind of influences where you would pinpoint what bands they like best, but they grasp and display the sheer foundation of its sound.  I haven't seen them live very often, but I hope that will change in the near future.

I hope to update you about their next release very soon!

I think you'd have to be lucky enough to catch them live, to be able to buy the record.

or, you can always contact the band by e-mail
