Judas Priest frontman Rob Halford is featured on a newly recorded version of Accept's classic song, "Balls to the Wall."
The track appears on Teutonic Titans 1976-2026, an upcoming compilation celebrating the German heavy metal band's 50th anniversary. The release features rerecorded Accept songs with guest artists.
Accept guitarist and co-founder Wolf Hoffmann praised Halford's contribution, saying, "Rob is the Metal God. I don't need to say any more about him." Hoffmann added that once Halford agreed to participate, "Balls to the Wall" was the obvious choice.
The updated recording also features Scorpions guitarist Matthias Jabs, Pantera bassist Rex Brown and Bullet for My Valentine drummer Jason Bowld.
Teutonic Titans 1976-2026 is scheduled for release on Sept. 4. The compilation also includes appearances by Billy Corgan of The Smashing Pumpkins, Metallica guitarist Kirk Hammett and Ghost frontman Tobias Forge.
