Is it an American accent, or an English-type (British/Irish/Scottish)

I don’t know the accent in the Depths of Depravity - I figure it’s some type of drunken slurring.

My sincerest apologies.

I have actually been warned about that before, and was going to put a disclaimer in there, but my boss walked in.
