==History == The band was formed by Fabian Fenk, Anton K. Feist and Alex Stolze in 2005.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.myvideo.de/musik/bodi-bill |title=Bodi Bill – Alle Musik Videos und Songs vom neuen Album kostenlos |publisher=Myvideo.de |accessdate=2015-05-29 |url-status=dead |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20150529221718/http://www.myvideo.de/musik/bodi-bill |archivedate=2015-05-29 }}</ref> Their style of music contains elements of techno, art-rock, glitch and folk.

''No More Wars'' was the first album that got published in 2007 via the berlin-based independent label Sinnbus.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.sinnbus.de/content/sr020.php |title=sinnbus - sr020 &#124; Bodi Bill - No More Wars |publisher=Sinnbus.de |date= |accessdate=2015-05-29}}</ref> Just one year after a new album ''Next Time'' was released.

The third album ''Two in One'' got international attention as it is said to "''achieve […] something new to the table, an indie band that have been influenced by their musical surroundings. It just so happens that it’s German Techno and its many variations. It’s not club music. But it’s not meant to be, they have brought indie and electronic music together in a perfect balance.''" <ref>{{cite web|last=Rafter |first=Andrew |url=http://www.harderbloggerfaster.com/2010/05/bodi-bill-two-in-one-album-review/ |title=Bodi Bill 'Two In One' album review |publisher=Harderbloggerfaster.com |date=2010-05-27 |accessdate=2015-05-29}}</ref>
