    Press Reviews
    A review of the rock band "Bodragaz" by Roger Brosel. Bodragaz? Yes, before you start wondering I had the same question coming to my mind. What does that mean? Well, Michael Layer, vocalist and guitarist of the band, explained to me it was the name of a Swiss town (hence the title of the album). What came as a surprise was the fact that this was not the only sign of originality. The sound of this band is a fantastic combination of modern sound with our old AOR. It has the edge, the groove but also the melodies and the keys. I have always liked this bands that create a crossover sound with style and not only trying to jump on the train of easy cash. "I Will Not Forget You" is the cracking start with hard guitars and good chorus. There are some tunes that are reminiscent of Melodic Rock mixed with some Smashing Pumpkins/U2 elements and, at the risk of seeming crazy, I must say that like them very much. Certainly this album will surprise you and quite probably won't appeal those with not open tastes but I can't deny this is good. The sixth track "Eyes All Around"is also great with some dark chorus and the moody "Feel the Sun" contains some ambient keybords which create a great surroundings. All along the record there are plenty of mid-tempos more than rockers and that appears as a good choice because this approach seems the very right one for Bodragaz songs. Innovative, melodic, creative. Bodragaz are a band to watch out in future releases. Very interesting.
