EP
Rich and Famous
Rich and Famous is an EP by the German heavy metal band Accept, released on 15 July 2002 through Drakkar Records. It arrived during a quiet stretch for the band, who had broken up in 1997 and would not reform properly until 2009. A brief touring cycle followed in 2005.
That places it between two chapters of the Accept story: the run of albums that ended with Predator in 1996, and the revival that began with Blood of the Nations in 2010. For anyone tracing the band's history, it is a small marker from the years when the group was largely inactive, and it sits apart from the studio albums on either side.
