Hoffmann says: "This album was different from the last as we had the cover artwork very early on. When we saw it, everybody knew right away this was it. It felt like Accept and it felt right for us.

"None of the song titles we had worked with the cover so we figured we'd come up with something that symbolises what Accept and our music stand for and Blind Rage just seemed to be fitting. It says it all - it's about aggression. Metal has never been about love and peace, it's always been in your face and Blind Rage seemed to be totally fitting. If you look around the world, there's a lot of blind rage going on, so it seems to be very relevant.
