PARABNORMAL
A new abstract word conceptually that brings to mind Abnormal and Paranormal. Beyond scientific explanation or a deviation from the norm. Thus is the title and inspiration for the second full length record from BAGORAH, a studio project devised entity formed in 2019 that encompasses members from the USA and Canada.
Artwork by Mo Sherwood. Engineered by Erik Hellerman at Hellerman Studios – Nashville, TN
Set for release on April 1st, 2025, nine tracks that mixes progressive and heavy rock with a melodic sensibility that harkens back to the glory days of 70s Arena Rock.
Preorder for release will be available starting March 1st at Bandcamp in both physical CD and digital formats.
Look for the World Track Premiere of “Something from Nothing” at Decibel Magazine Webzine on their Track of the Day – March 3rd, 2025.
Formed in 2019, four veteran musicians based in different locations covering the US and Canada came together to spark creativity and become a studio project based entity to focus on delivering heavy progressive rock songs that draw from a wide range of influences where nothing is off limits.

ALBUM REVIEWS
“One of the rare gifts the pandemic gave us is remotely made music by collections of musicians who had a lot of time on their hands and a similar amount of pent-up creativity. Count Bagorah as one of those gifts.” Read the full review at DECIBEL MAGAZINE
“I grew up with music like this, its been a great distraction from all the extreme albums that comes our way. It also helps that this is a really good album.” Smorg Magazine
“There is no way to describe them. They are an eclectic blend of so many different things that there is no way to point to one and say “there that’s them.” It is pretty refreshing to hear something this bold, brazen and off the beaten path.” Read the full review on Metal-Zenith. Com
BAND INTRO
Sometimes the toughest of times can spark endless creativity. In our changing and challenging world the art of making music has changed. Not willing to wait for the way things used to be done, four veteran musicians based in different locations covering both the US and Canada came together over the past two years to write and record ten new heavy progressive songs that are loaded with memorable riffs, beats, vocals hooks and melody. The band, the project and art has come under the birth and title of BAGORAH and our first full length release is “The Art of Deviant Behavior.”
BAGORAH is Lenny Burnett on guitars, Richard Sims on bass, Tom Moller on drums and James Phillips on vocals.
With Erik Hellerman at the helm in Nashville, we individually recorded tracks in studios in our different respective locations and with the magic of modern times sent those to Erik to mix and master. Song titles include Secret Society, The Silent Type, The Humans and more.
Promotion is handled by Clawhammer PR and supported by official videos for “Secret Society, “Supernatural” and “All Of Our Lives“.
