Bio:

Band formed in 1989 in Germany.Roko is a German hard rock / melodic hard rock project by Roko (Robert Kohlmeyer) also in JoJo and German Rock Project.The first selftitled album was released in 1990, followed by "Open Invitation" (1992) and "Think About Tomorrow" 1994.

Album:

Melodic rockers ROKO were founded former JOJO man Roko Kohlmeyer. The debut album ROKO was produced by star producer BOB MARLETTE (AIRBOURNE, BLACK SABBATH, ALICE COOPER, MARILYN MANSON, SHINEDOWN, GLENN HUGHES). It includes a cover version of JEFFERSON STARSHIPs classic JANE. The video for the first single ONE NIGHT STAND was on rotation on MTVs Headbanger's Ball. The band toured together with U.D.O., ALICE COOPER and MAGNUM throughout Europe in order to promote the album.The self-titled debut album is definitely a good start.Easy-going melodies, memorable, but not too cheesy, quite hore-oriented - that's the way to describe the sound of the quintet. The voice of the master (good and high) withstood international comparisons, the songs could pass smoothly at American AOR stations. ROKO are not very hard, but have a punchy production on their pallet. Unfortunately, one does not understand how to introduce more variety - in the end, not much is left of what you're listening to, if at the end of the disc you can distinguish the songs more or less only by the titles.ROKO rocks!

Album:

Shamely this one is less consistent than their debut one but still pleasant, release in 1992 on Polydor Germany, recorded and mixed at the famed Wisseloord Studios in the Netherlands. Jürgen Beitel has left, leaving the quartet: Ricky, André, Marc and of course Roko. (Koen van Baal is credited with keyboards for this recording.) Singles from this release were “Is It Love”, “Heaven”, and the uplifting “All Your Love”. Open Invitation is full of fantastic riffs and memorable solos. There are some pretty ballads, too. “Hot Nights In Africa” and “Deadline” contain killer riffs, “All Your Love” and “You Are An Angel” are great examples of catchy AOR.All music composed by Roko Kohlmeyer, Marc Bugnard, André Pasquier and Ricky Lee. All lyrics written by Roko Kohlmeyer.

Roko Kohlmeyer - lead vocals, guitar (Ex-JoJo)

Album:

Third album from German Hard Rock band ROKO recorded At – Roko Soundstudio.This Japan version issued in a standard jewel case with 18-page booklet in English release information and lyrics, with Japanese lyrics and commentary.Lyrics By – Robert Kohlmeyer.Good and solid melodic hard rock.It is a lot heavier than the previous releases, and is nowhere near as good as 'Open invitation'.The title track is great and elsewhere it's consistent melodic hard rock - even though it is not as instantly catchy as their earlier stuff.In the same league of Pink Cream 69's "Food For Thoughts" and (Swedish) Masquerade's "Surface Of Pain".They are not really Grunge but,yes,they are modern style of Hard Rock.Still an acceptable release but obviously far from reaching the status of their previews 2 albums...my faves are "Stranger Warrior","Nightmare","Think About Tomorrow","Lady"(nice acoustic),"Wrouummm"(excellent rocking' instrumental) & "Leave This Way"(also rocks!).I consider Roko one of the best hard rock bands out in Germany,their first 2 cd's are in my top 20 cd indeed.This one is not bad,solid hard rock,great prodution,maybe 2 fillers but the rest is very good but not at the top as their origin IMO.Some riffs here are great,expecially in"stranger warrior","nightmare"and"lonely"(great change of time here!).Roko are great and will be awesome forever!!

Roko Kohlmeyer - lead vocals, guitar (Ex-JoJo)

Album:

This is basically just a solo album by the lead vocalist, and man do I wish it had been titled and sold as that, because what this actually has to do with the awesome melodic hard rock band that released three great slabs of hard rock is... well, the voice.'Fantasy' portrays a much more personal and deeper side to Roko.Upon first taste it was a big surprise to find such a laid back sound.It did take some getting used to. I guess I still yearned for a return to the debut, but once I got past that I found a very mature, intelligent and stimulating album. This is their weakest album and their last one recorded by the way...for me it was quite good but nothing to do with their traditional sound of the past..."My Best Friend","My Song For You","I Want To Get My Heart Back"(AORish),"Dancing In The Streets"(AOR)& "Dreaming" are very nice songs but mellow ones if you compare them with other songs of the band.Some good AOR Hard Rock songs on this disc including the sweet ballad "My Song For You".

Roko Kohlmeyer - lead vocals, guitar (Ex-JoJo)

01. My Best Friend
