“Acceptance Speech” is the title track of Dance Gavin Dance’s fifth album. It’s also the second single released from the album.

“Acceptance Speech” can be described as an aggressive burst of angular post-hardcore, a brief moment of total chaos followed by a soothing catharsis, this is modern Dance Gavin Dance firing on all cylinders. Pearson’s layered vocals in the second half are haunting. Guitarist Will Swan ends the track with a short rap verse.
