Dokken 'Lightning Strikes Again' album

Singer Don Dokken says he set out to prove something with Dokken’s tenth studio album, LIGHTNING 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, LIGHTNING 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). LIGHTNING 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.
