Many, many things have changed in the world since Udo Dirkschneider first belted out Accept's theme song, "Balls to the Wall," back in 1983. Communism was abolished all over Eastern Europe, apartheid ended in South Africa, Rudy Giuliani enabled Times Square to become a lot like Disneyland, and the Internet created a whole new generation of technology-minded entrepreneurs. Then there are all the musical changes that took place -- thanks to the Nirvana/Pearl Jam/grunge upheaval that occurred in the early '90s, alternative rock became rock's primary direction. But some things haven't changed much since 1983, and Dirkschneider is a prime example. Mastercutor is a 2007 release that parties like it's still 1983; Dirkschneider remains firmly, stubbornly committed to old-school power metal, and this 50-minute CD is totally oblivious to post-'80s developments in metal. But if Mastercutor sounds dated, that doesn't make it any less inspired. While few surprises occur, Dirkschneider has no shortage of passion on melodic but hard-driving tracks like "Vendetta," "The Instigator," "Walker of the Dark," and "Crash Bang Crash" -- all of which sound like they could have appeared on an Accept album back in the day. Some veteran headbangers have changed with the times; Tommy Lee, for example, embraced alternative metal and rap-metal after leaving Mötley Crüe and launching his Methods of Mayhem project in the late '90s. But on Mastercutor, Dirkschneider refuses to leave the '80s behind -- and given how solid this album is, that is probably just as well. Dirkschneider sticks with the type of metal he does best, and the result is an enjoyable disc that falls short of essential but will please the German headbanger's die-hard fans. ~ Alex Henderson

5 stars The Right Side of Midnight
Danke UDO and camp for such an aggressive offerring. The tiny German with a huge sound. It just amazes me that a man who just turned 55 years young can put out a killer album. Accept had it's place in time and Heir Dirkschneider carried the banter onward. Keep putting these records out and I'll keep buying them. Metal has never left, but if it did; it is most assurdedly back with Mastercutor!

5 stars UDO at the top of his game
This is an outstanding effort by UDO. There are a couple of ballad-ish tunes that don't make this quite a nonstop metalfest, but the aggressive nature of most tracks on this album more than make up for it. Lead guitar is technical & melodic, and the rhythms provide a solid foot tapping (or head banging) foundation. I love it that such an artist exists that hasn't caved in and mellowed with time. This album provides the defiance and aggressiveness I know that I can expect from UDO every time.

5 stars Best UDO Ever
This is by far the best UDO cd ever! It is very similar to Accept Predator disc which is great! It is loud, heavy, and there really is not a bad song on the CD although I could do without the intro and outro which only take away from the attached song! Otherwise this is an exceptional or should I say "acceptional" CD that rates up there with the best Accept CDs which is saying something some 25 years later!

5 stars heavier, aggressive and even sinister
U.D.O. retunrs yet this time, with a definite bent towards the darkly aggressive and pathological. The Accept trademarks from the Breaker-Restless & Wild-Balls to the Wall era are fully intact but I must say, I did not expect such a guitar wailing, in your face romp this time around. The guitars surge with power like no other UDO record before it and bottom line, this band laid it down with a bloody unsettling vengeance.

5 stars best metal cd in the last decade
this cd is simply amazing, its like listening to accept but at light speed, this cd has 12 songs. i have to say that this album from the beginning awakens your headbanging spirit, the metal keeps coming at you song after song, the madness only takes a break with 2 slow songs, which are nicely done i might add, after the break, the madness resumes and ends with you on the floor beaten to a pulp by the mastecutor.
