Their current lineup consists of Hoffmann, vocalist Mark Tornillo, guitarists Uwe Lulis and Philip Shouse, drummer Christopher Williams and bassist Martin Motnik. Before arriving at their current lineup, Accept has undergone numerous lineup changes, being Hoffmann the last remaining original member since its inception, and he is the only band member to appear on each album.
Accept played an important role in the development of speed and thrash metal, and they were part of the German heavy metal scene, which emerged in the early to mid-1980s. They have also been cited as an influence or inspiration by a number of acts, including Metallica, Megadeth, Slayer, Pantera, Testament, Anthrax, Guns N' Roses, Mötley Crüe, Alice in Chains, Soundgarden, Overkill, Exodus, and Annihilator, as well as fellow Germans such as Helloween, Blind Guardian, Doro, Sodom, Rage, and Grave Digger. Accept achieved its first commercial success with their fifth studio album Balls to the Wall (1983), which is the band's only album to be certified gold in the United States and Canada, and spawned their well-known hit "Balls to the Wall".
Accept have broken up and reformed multiple times. They first split up in 1989, several months after the release of Eat the Heat (which was their only album with Dirkschneider's initial replacement David Reece), but reformed in 1992 and released three more albums before disbanding again in 1997. After briefly reuniting in 2005, Accept announced their third reunion in 2009, with former T.T. Quick frontman Mark Tornillo replacing Dirkschneider (who declined to participate), and the band has recorded five albums with him: Blood of the Nations (2010), Stalingrad (2012), Blind Rage (2014), The Rise of Chaos (2017) and Too Mean to Die (2021); each of those albums renewed Accept's popularity in Germany and entered the top ten charts there.

Screaming For A Love-Bite
Accept Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And you hide it, that it makes you feel alright
See your secret in a mirror
It's black 'n' blue and it happened to you
In the heat of the night
It hurts just the first time
Ooh, it hurts
Screaming for a love-bite
For a love-bite
Hiding that it feels right
Screaming for a love-bite
Grinding makes so uptight
And you gotta face it, 'cause it decorates your neck
It's gonna stay there
Stay there for a long time
Just to remind you while you like it
When you went on and on
It hurts just the first time
Ooh, it hurts
It hurts just the very first time
Screaming for a love-bite
For a love-bite
Hiding that it feels right
Screaming for a love-bite [Repeat: x1]
The lyrics of the song "Screaming for a love-bite" by Accept talks about a love-bite during a passionate night. The person is screaming for a love-bite, and they are hiding it because it makes them feel alright. The mirror reflects the black and blue marking, reminding them of the heated night. The grinding makes the person uptight, but they have to face it, because the love-bite is like decorating their neck, and it is going to stay there for a long time. The love-bite serves as a reminder of the passionate night, and it also tells them why they liked it.
Furthermore, the lyrics imply that the love-bite hurts only the first time, and then it starts feeling right. The juxtaposition of screaming, grinding, and decorating the neck allude to the intense passion, but it also shows the pain and how it is worth it for the person. Overall, this song is about expressing the physical intensity and passion in a relationship, and how it can have a lasting memory that the person desires even if it hurts.
