Our Take

Ah, DOKKEN, the beloved hair metal band that brought us classics like "Dream Warriors" and "In My Dreams." Now we have been gifted with a collection of their lost songs from 1978-1981, and let me tell you, it's a wild ride.

The album kicks off with "Step Into the Light," a track that oozes with that signature DOKKEN sound - catchy hooks, shredding guitars, and powerhouse vocals from frontman Don Dokken. It's like stepping into a time machine and being transported back to the glory days of 80s rock.

Tracks like "Back in the Streets" and "Felony" showcase the band's raw energy and determination to make it big in the music industry. You can practically feel the grit and sweat dripping off every note.

But it's not all high-octane rockers on this album. The ballad "Day After Day" shows a softer side to DOKKEN, with poignant lyrics and heartfelt melodies that will tug at your heartstrings.

Overall, The Lost Songs: 1978-1981 is a must-listen for any DOKKEN fan or anyone looking to discover the roots of a legendary band. It may be lost songs, but they are definitely not forgotten. So crank up the volume, throw up the horns, and get ready to rock out like it's 1981.

About the artist

Dokken

The Fab Four of hair metal, DOKKEN burst onto the music scene in the 1980s with their infectious hooks, soaring vocals, and gravity-defying locks. Led by the enigmatic frontman Don Dokken, this California-based band quickly carved out a niche for themselves in the crowded landscape of glam rock. With classic albums like "Tooth and Nail" and "Under Lock and Key," DOKKEN became known for their anthemic choruses, blistering guitar solos, and lyrics that tapped into the angst and rebellion of the Reagan era. Tracks like "Alone Again" and "Dream Warriors" showcased the band's versatility, blending power ballads with hard-hitting rockers. Despite internal tensions and lineup changes over the years, DOKKEN's music has stood the test of time, influencing countless bands and earning them a dedicated fan base around the world. From sold-out arena tours to appearances on MTV's Headbangers Ball, these rock icons have left an indelible mark on the music industry. Whether you're a die-hard metalhead or just looking for some good old-fashioned rock 'n' roll, DOKKEN's discography offers something for everyone. So grab your leather jacket, crank up the volume, and let the anthems of DOKKEN take you on a journey back to the glory days of hair metal.
