Free Music Review: Dokken's best album *
Hit: 5 Stars
On Lightning Strikes Again, Dokken has the comeback of the year and quite possibly the best hard rock record of 2008. For the fans-this is exactly what we've been waiting for. This may be Dokken's best album ever-in terms of songwriting, lyrics, inspired arrangements and quality production. As far as band member performance, John Levin has that classic George Lynch sound down perfect, but enough of his own style to make it interesting. Having Mick Brown still on the drums as tight and punchy as ever is great to hear, he's an excellent drummer. Barry Sparks on the bass has got the perfect style, unobtrusive and solid. Some reviews have made negative comments about Don Dokken's voice on this cd...for me, his vocals are awesome. Yes, it's true he can't sing quite like he used to 20 years ago, so what? Who can? I actually like his voice on this cd, sounding a little raspy and even mildly straining at times. It's real, it's raw, and it's still got that fire. There's an old saying that a lot of music snobs don't get these days, and that's: "It ain't perfect but it's close enough for Rock & Roll".
To Don Dokken- kudos, and bravo to you, for bringing the real ROCK! As far as favorite songs, tracks like "Oasis", "Give Me A Reason", "Standing On The Outside", "Point Of No Return", "It Means" and "Judgment Day" certainly rank right up there with the band's all time classics from their heyday. These songs are catchy, have enough hooks, killer riffs, and strong vocal melodies, to get stuck in your head on the first listen. Lightning has struck again, and Dokken is back for the attack!
Lightning Strikes Again Poster
Singer Don Dokken says he set out to prove something with Dokken?s tenth studio album, Lightening Strikes Again. Taking its title from a track on the band?s platinum 1985 classic Under Lock & Key, the new songs bring the group?s sound full circle. "It?s time that a band from our era did something special and proved that our brand of music is still valid," he says. "Our goal was to create an album that was our best since our heyday." Dokken returns to the band?s roots for its Rhino debut, Lightening Strikes Again. Mixed by Wyn Davis (Dio, Great White), the album features Don Dokken (vocals), Mick Brown (drums), Jon Levin(guitar), and Barry Sparks (bass). Lightening Strikes Again contains 12 tracks, including the breakout songs, "Standing On The Outside," "Oasis," and "Heart To Stone." The album captures the signature mix of barbed-wire riffs and razor-sharp melodies that made Dokken one of the most dominant creative and commercial forces in the world of melodic hard rock.Hard Rock & Metal Music CDs
