Our Take

Ah, Dokken's "Breaking The Chains" - the album that's as tangled as my headphone wires after a night out. This 1983 release kicks off with the titular track, a classic hair metal anthem that's more rebellious than a teenager sneaking out past curfew. The song's infectious guitar riffs and soaring vocals will have you headbanging harder than a bobblehead on a rollercoaster.

But don't let that fool you - this album is more than just a one-trick pony. Tracks like "In the Middle," with its catchy chorus and blistering guitar solos, showcase Dokken's versatility and range. Frontman Don Dokken's vocals float effortlessly over the intricate instrumentation, painting a picture as vivid as a Led Zeppelin album cover.

The band's chemistry is undeniable, with Mick Brown's thunderous drumming and George Lynch's face-melting guitar work combining to create a sound that's as tight as a pair of skinny jeans. And let's not forget Jeff Pilson's bass, grounding the whole affair like a trusty sidekick in a buddy cop movie.

Overall, "Breaking The Chains" is a must-listen for any fans of 80s rock - a time capsule of leather jackets, teased hair, and anthemic choruses. So put on your spandex, crank up the volume, and let Dokken take you on a wild ride through the heyday of arena rock. Just make sure to stretch first - you'll be headbanging for days.
