Germanic hard rock/heavy metal driven by guitarists Johann Meyer and Fritz Friedrich's melodic solos and harmonized leads influenced by both blues rock and European classical style, Rook, is a dynamo machine that turns out solid music with melancholic undertones.

​

In the same realm as the Scorpions, Gamma Ray and Helloween, their songs are often slice of life creations touching on emotional situations and eclectic moods.

Creation: I came up with an eagle motif for the band High Relief almost by mistake. I was going for something more raven-like. The raven idea stuck and resurfaced when I created a band with a vocalist that had a European accent. The name Rook comes from the card game with the same name.
