Rock/classic rock/melodic rock – SWEDEN
Bodinrocker aka Anders Bodin is a musician whose releases I have had the opportunity to write about several times. He has been present on the scene for a long time, and the fact is that he is one of those musicians who have not changed much over the course of their career, remaining faithful to their basic expressive principles.
Bodin writes the majority of his songs together with his friend Jaan Lentjes, and on this release we also have one track sung in Swedish. Bodinrocker is faithful to a traditional approach that was most popular during the 70s, less so in the 80s, which is a variant of classic/melodic rock, with melodically conceived arrangements that most closely resembles the sound of Status Quo, as well as numerous glam bands from that era.
The 70s represent a key inspiration, and it seems that on the current release, songs of medium and moderately slow tempo prevail, where only the vocalizing becomes more prominent. Generally, more or less, the Swedish musician does not change his approach, there is no reason for him to treat his songs differently, and there is no doubt that such an expressive approach still has a sufficient number of loyal followers.
Bodinrocker aka Anders Bodin je muzičar o čijim izdanjima sam imao priliku da pišem više puta. On je već dugo prisutan na sceni, i činjenica je da je jedan od onih muzičara koji se tokom karijere nisu puno menjali, ostavši verni svojim bazičnim izražajnim postulatima.
Glavninu pesama Bodin piše zajedno sa svojim prijateljem Jaanom Lentjesom, a na ovom izdanju imamo i jednu numeru koja je otpevana na švedskom jeziku. Bodinrocker je veran tradiciji pristupa koji je bio najviše aktuelan tokom 70-tih, manje 80-tih godina prošlog veka, a to je varijanta classic/melodic rocka melodično koncipiranog koji najviše podseća na sound kojeg su imali Status Quo, ali i brojni glam sastavi iz pomenute ere. 70-te predstavljaju ključnu inspiraciju, a čini se da na aktuelnom izdanju više preovladavaju pesme srednjeg, i umerenog srednjeg tempa, gde samo vokaliziranje više dolazi do izražaja. Uglavnom, manje-više švedski muzičar svoj pristup ne menja, nema ni razloga da se prema svojim pesmama drugačije odnosi, a nema sumnje da ovakav izražajni pristup i dalje ima dovoljan broj vernih pristalica.
