| Good AOR album, indeed. Very clean, well balanced, with good songwriting and performances. Reminds me a little of Melodica, but without the great Ted Poley, of course. Recommended for fans of good AOR with a Hard Rock touch.

| Good disc, good production, good harmonies but with all the hype surrounding this release I was expecting a bit more. Don't get me wrong - its good - but it could've been great.

| Hey!!! Paul Bonrud is a nice American AOR/HARD ROCK artist, my congratulations, bombastic songs, but your voice sound very similar to TERRA NOVA's Fred Hendrix vocals!!! And BONRUD - Self-Titled Front-Cover is pure clone for JOURNEY Front-Covers!!! BTW...my sincere rating for BONRUD is 80/100.

| This is a rock solid CD. The songwriting, guitar playing, and vocals are all top notch. The highlights for me are "Desperate Heart", "I've Changed", "The Phoenix", and "Date With Destiny". I highly recommend this CD to anyone who loves melodic rock.

| Paul Bonrud hasta ahora no lo tenía en mis registros hasta que por medio de Internet di con su página www.bonrud.com y me di cuenta de que este músico merecía un espacio en el ambiente latino para que metaleros de otros lados sepan que este artista tiene un disco bajo el mismo nombre de muy buena calidad. Como he aclarado en otras oportunidades, no comento cosas que no crea que pueda decir cosas favorables, por eso van a encontrar que este comentario les alentara a escuchar a este grupo: Bonrud.

| Casi 45 minutos de Heavy Metal y Hard Rock, con guitarras bien machacantes, bases agresivas y una voz melódica (de Pablito) son características fáciles de apreciar en este lanzamiento. Empieza con “Leap Of Faith”, que suena bien a canción de película adolescente de los ochentas, se acuerdan esas bandas tipo Survivor? donde sus canciones eran una especie de Pop Metal bien comercial, ahora en su segundo track “The Phoenix”

| es donde Bonrud captó mi atención. Escucho a “I’ve Changed” y siento que estuviera escuchando a un Bryan Adams un poquito más pesado, pero más dentro de un Rock And Roll, tal vez coincidiendo a como suena “Leap…”. “Take Me Home”, segundo soft del album (el primero es “Desperate Heart”) nos denota el lado más sensible de Paul, cuando empieza me trajo una sensación de que estoy escuchando un lento de Warrant. El CD finaliza con una balada “Hollywood Movie Star” cerrando así 11 canciones

| las cuales merecen ser escuchadas por aquellos que busquen artistas más actuales. Como agregado cabe mencionar que el disco está producido por Keith Olsen, quien ha producido discos de Foreigner, Whitesnake, Ozzy, Night Ranger, y Sammy Hagar, logrando vender sus producciones más de 115 millones de copias. En su página van a poder escuchar sus mp3 gratuitamente, y los invito sinceramente a que escuchen su buen Hard Rock.

Simple, banal rhyming lyrics, weak drum sound, every cliche in the book on deck... but you know what? I love every second of it! Except the filler.  But 'Leap Of Faith' is a great cliche ridden opener, 'Desperate Heart' is essential melodic rock, 'I've Changed', 'Give Me A Chance', 'Date With Destiny' and 'Once In A Lifetime' are all killers as well. The closer, 'Hollywood Movie Star' is also a highlight. 7 gems, 4 fillers - bloody good odds for me. Great album! Recommended to all.

| Bueno, no es la maravilla de album este de Bonrud pero está aceptable, Melodic rock simple pero directo y con mucha melodía. Bonrud es el productor y ingeniero de sonido según leo en su folleto, Mr. Olsen solo se encarga de la mezcla. La bateria si que suena debil ehh no me gusta en lo particular. El disco en general es muy parejo. "Desperate Heart" es mi tema favorito del disco. Recomendado. 8/10

| THIS IS MELODIC HARD ROCK. "LEAP OF FAITH", "I'VE CHANGED", "GIVE ME A CHANCE" SOUND VERY SIMILAR TO THAT ALBUM "BURNS-BLUE" BY VINNY BURNS AND SAM BLUE, THE VOICE IS THE SAME (SAM AND BONRUD), I LIKE TOO MUCH "THE PHOENIX" A FULL HARD ROCK SONG, THE POWERFUL BALLAD "DESPERATE HEART" IS ANOTHER HIGHLIGHT, "HOLLYWOOD MOVIE STAR" MOVES IN THE SAME VEIN, IS A GOOD ALBUM OF MELODIC HARD-ROCK CAN BE. 9/10. LONG LIVE TO HARD ROCK AND AOR.

| First time I heard "Desperate Heart" on one of the MelodicRock.com samplers I was overwhelmed and I had to get this CD. Great decision ! This is an awesome AOR release as already described above by Rock Fan and rocknroll. I can't add much to this. Buy it !

A decent release or may i say acceptable...not as good as its recently edited follower "Save Tomorrow" IMO...ok you have some catchy tunes such as "Leap Of Faith","I've Changed" & "Give Me A Chance" plus some nice songs such as "Live Your Dreams" & "Hollywood Movie Star"(very nice song indeed!)...84/100

| super class aor record.the 12 songs are excellent and could be a hit.the japan bonus track is at the same level than the others songs.the singer is really excellent ,sound perfect for the bass guitar the guitars and the voice .but the sound of the drums is a shame.i have the feeling to hear the lid of a trash.nevertheless this very great record is hightly recommanded to lovers of melodic rock music!!!!!!!!!!!!!
