SEATTLE, WA | March 10, 2017 – Riding high on the release of their sophomore album that was over a decade in the making, Acceptance proved they still have the magic that made them so special to their continuously loyal fans. The 11-track offering, ‘Colliding By Design,’ perfectly re-introduced the band and was released to high praise and critical acclaim. The album absolutely crushed in sales and made serious noise on the Billboard charts – debuting at #1 Heatseekers, #7 Independent Albums, #14 Alternative Albums, #40 Top Albums, and #134 Billboard 200.

Just ahead of their Australian tour with Taking Back Sunday, the Seattle rockers have partnered with UPROXX to unveil their hypnotic music video for radio-ready jam, “Fire and Rain.” When asked about the inspiration behind the video, guitarist Christian McAlhaney shared, “With the video for Fire and Rain, it was vital, as it will always be, for us to push ourselves to best represent the songs from Colliding by Design in a visually unique way that captures the feelings we attempted to convey with the song. We are so thrilled to have had the opportunity to work with Matthew Ryan Ford and produce this video, and we really think this visual representation adds a different dimension to our song. Thank you for watching!”
