      Balls to the walls is a old saying. Definition of balls to the wall
      English, informal + sometimes offensive
      : with maximum effort or power : ALL OUT
      It's either get there when you get there or go balls to the wall. There's no in between. When London was getting bombed in by the Nazis in WW 2 Churchill famously made the statement to the British press in which he stated the Nazis had the British people's Balls to the wall.

    "We've always been interested in politics and in human rights and things like that, so a lot of the lyrics that we had in those days, and to the end actually, were dealing with human rights, for instance, and that's really what 'Balls To The Wall' is all about. 'One day the tortured will stand up and kick some ass!'"

    Everybody thinks "balls to the wall" is dirty. It isn't. It's an old military term to refer to "full throttle" in aircraft. The throttles had ceramic or plastic balls at their end, and when you pushed them all the way forward, "to the firewall" the engine was going at full throttle.

      I’m pretty sure this song is in reference to the phrase some cops use to say before they searched you. That’s why you see all the people up against the wall in the video, it’s the stance a cop will usually want you in while they search you.

    This song was somewhat of a premonition of things to come...as someone else said, it was a bit of a political statement. You may not be too familiar with the Berlin Wall and the Cold War...at the time, Russia was a country INSIDE the USSR...Berlin was split in two, between east and west. Accept (a German band) released the album 'Balls to the Wall' in 1983...it was kind of a battle cry in those days...and 6 years later, the Berlin Wall fell. Oh yeah, if you want to hear another amazing Accept song, check out 'Restless and Wild' (from the album of the same name). That song broke them onto the scene after years of hard work.

    Balls to the wall was a commentary on the Berlin wall and how East Germany and east Berlin were slaves to the communist regime. It is a Metal Anthem similar to great songs like Thunderstruck, Rock you like a hurricane, Master of puppets, Welcome to the jungle, ect. Accept, Scorpions, and Warlock are all German bands who made a splash in the U.S. in the 1980's. Accept have a different singer now but are still making albums today, so is Udo Dirkschneider the ex lead singer as U.D.O. You should check out Warlock "All we are" it's another great Metal Anthem.
