A ten-year chapter in the legendary heavy metal band Accept‘s illustrious career has come to an end with the announcement of guitarist Uwe Lulis’ departure. As reported from MetalInjection, in 2014, Lulis joined Accept as a replacement for veteran axeman Herman Frank. Having toured the world with the group and appeared on critically acclaimed records, Lulis makes a lasting impression on Accept‘s contemporary era. Lulis will continue to pursue his musical career as a producer and with his Uwe Lulis Project, while Accept continues to play with their traditional two-guitar lineup.
