Matt “Gonzo” Röhr – Blitz & Donner

Releasedate: 19-08-2011; Label: Gonzo Music Records (Soulfood)
By: Nina Mende

Matt “Gonzo” Röhr is a German guitar player and used to play with the German rock band Böhse Onkelz. Since 2007 he is also releasing solo albums. This is his fourth album called “Blitz & Donner”.

Twelve tracks are on Matt “Gonzo” Röhr’s new release. Twelve tracks that will please you well. The cover reminds of a biker logo, carrying the spirit and soul of true rock’n’roll. And a little dirt. And all this is also reflected in the music. Dirty rock’n’roll, music you listen to when hanging out in a bar with your buddies, music you listen to when riding your bike – or vintage car. All lyrics on “Blitz & Donner” are in German, taken out of life. The smoky voice of Matt “Gonzo” Röhr along with the great music arrangements revive the rocker in you. This album is for tough guys – and gals – for people that love and live rock. For people that carry the spirit in their hearts. A beautiful album, reminding of the past, of how life used to be. “Blitz & Donner” forces you to carry on and look forward but keep the past at heart, because it is a part of you. If Sons of Anarchy were German, this would be their soundtrack. Cheers!
