25th Anniversary Edition first re-release of the third full-length album by the legendary German Heavy Metal singer (ex-Accept) and his band.
When Udo Dirkschneider sang lead with the West German Metal band Accept, it was clear that AC/DC's Bon Scott was his primary influence. And the headbanger took his love of Scott with him when he departed Accept and formed his own band, U.D.O., in 1987. Though not as strong as his work with Accept, "Faceless World" is a decent album that employs mildly gothic imagery at times. Not content to simply crank up the volume and hit us with power chords, Dirkschneider and friends make melody a priority on "System of Life", "Stranger", "Blitz of Lightning" and other songs on this exuberant album. "Faceless World" may not be "Balls To The Wall" (one of Accept's best releases), but it isn't anything to be ashamed of either!!
Double 180 gram vinyl in gatefold cover includes two live bonus tracks!

The eighteenth full-length studio album by legendary German Heavy Metal band.
He has quite a distinctive voice, and always stays true to the one style of music that fits him like a pair of spandex trousers: Heavy Metal. Yes, with capitals, as he seems to be incapable of doing anything else. He has made 10 albums with Accept, and “Game Over” is his eighteenth studio recording with U.D.O. And if you even thought he would sound jaded, tired or even old, think again!
"Game Over!" – the statement behind has got many different meanings. But one thing becomes clear immediately: U.D.O. is not doing things by halves, and so they give everything they have. During hundreds of shows worldwide, the band has become one unit and a conglomerate of passionate musicians and friends. Each of them knows exactly, when and how to play his instrument to match to the sound of the band perfectly.
Songs like "Metal Never Dies", "Kids And Guns" or "Prophecy" are precise, powerful, catchy and bursting of energy. And most notably, they are: timeless. All the songs on this record feature a distinctive character, that convinces today as well as it will convince tomorrow!

The eleventh full-length studio album by legendary German Heavy Metal band.
The characteristic vocals of the bandleader will always remind you of Accept. Udo wanted to make real Heavy Metal and stayed true to the Metal laws and always bringing quality releases.
And "Mastercutor" is nothing less. The album gives us some decent Heavy Metal. Good rocking U.D.O. songs is what this album delivers.
According to frontman Udo Dirkschneider, the album title is a shortened version of "Master Executor".
Russian Digibook Edition includes Russian version of the "Cry Soldier Cry", three bonus-tracks and video clip "The Wrong Side of Midnight".
“Mastercutor” is a sure musthave for every U.D.O. and Accept fan!!

Extra: "The Wrong Side of Midnight" (Video)

25th Anniversary Edition first re-release of the second full-length album by the legendary German Heavy Metal singer (ex-Accept) and his band.
Udo Dirkschneider will always be remembered as that wild little guy on a giant ball smashing into things on MTV for the video to Accept’s “Balls to the Wall”.  Only a few years after that iconic Heavy Metal video, Udo went out on his own and formed the band U.D.O.  In 1988, he released his second solo effort titled "Mean Machine". This was, in many ways, his first solo album, as his first release were songs written by Accept. On "Mean Machine" these were his songs and his former band's. Not that too much changed, as the voice was still as mean and snarling as ever. The guitars were distorted and the rhythm section played like a locomotive.  
"Mean Machine" is one of the best U.D.O. ever released albums, as well as the title track is one of the best tunes he ever released. “Dirty Boys” is an ode to that Rock and Roll lifestyle while “Streets on Fire” is an epic rocker. “Don’t Look Back” kicks off the show by smacking you between the eyes with a loud riff while “Break the Rules” summed up what Udo’s fans wanted out of life… to rock out and break the rules! 
The album still sounds great. So, crank it up and get your German Rock out as Udo has always done it right! This is a great trip back in time!!
Remastered re-release. Gatefold 180 gram Red Vinyl. Includes live bonus track “Break The Rules”.

Debut DVD by the legendary German Heavy Metal band.
After many solo albums with his own band U.D.O., ex-Accept frontman Udo Dirkschneider finally released his first DVD for his numerous die-hard fans.
This DVD is jam-packed with U.D.O. goodies and the most interesting one is certainly the "Live in Russia" concert recorded in 2001. The overall picture is very average but acceptable (with sometimes some annoying black and white and distorted effects), and the sound is rather surprisingly good for a 2.0 audio mix. However, the footage is limited to only nine tracks - a 45 minutes set list, instead of a full concert. Nevertheless, the gig is awesome and it's so great to see U.D.O. perform their songs and the Accept ones so well and accurately.
The videoclips section is also fine to watch. The best ones being "They Want War", "Heart Of Gold" (videoclip and Hit Studio TV show appearance in 1989), "Independence Day" and "Still", an Aria song during which Udo appears and sings in Russian with the band! "Timebomb" (electronic press kit), which explains the story of the band up to that album.
There are also seven previously unreleased audio tracks on the DVD. Five of them are there in demo version but the sound is as good as a final studio track. "Recall The Sin" is rather quite different than the studio version included on "Holy". "X-T-C", an Accept track on "Eat The Heat" (the only Accept album which doesn't have Udo as the lead singer), is played very well. "The Key" is an excellent bonus track off the album "No Limits". This is more than 30 minutes of pure U.D.O. audio!
There are also other sections on the DVD like "Behind the scene", three separate footage totalling about 45 minutes of U.D.O. on tour in Russia, in the USA, and finally one where we can see Udo makes a parachute jump! There are also a short photo gallery, a biography of each member and links to Web sites. But the most impressive section is the discography, which includes cover art, lyrics, years, other information and especially excellent audio samples of all songs!!
It's definitely a must have for any die-hard U.D.O. fan. You get a very good retrospective of the U.D.O. history with this DVD. Finally, hail to ex-Accept Udo and Stefan for keeping on going after all these Metal years!!!
