Our Take

DOKKEN's The Lost Songs: 1978-1981 is a treasure trove of forgotten gems, unearthed from the depths of the hair metal legends' early days. This collection of demos and unreleased tracks gives fans a glimpse into the band's formative years, showcasing their raw talent and unbridled creativity.

From the moment the needle drops on the opening track, "Step Into the Light", it's clear that DOKKEN were destined for greatness. The blistering guitar riffs, soaring vocals, and thunderous drums combine to create a sound that is both nostalgic and ahead of its time.

Tracks like "Felony" and "Day After Day" showcase frontman Don Dokken's powerful vocals and the band's tight musicianship, while "Back in the Streets" and "We're Going Wrong" reveal a more experimental side to the group, with intricate arrangements and unexpected twists and turns.

But it's not all high-energy rockers and shredding solos - the band also shows their softer side on tracks like "Rainbows" and "Live to Rock (Rock to Live)", proving that they were more than just a one-trick pony.

Overall, The Lost Songs: 1978-1981 is a must-have for any DOKKEN fan, offering a unique glimpse into the band's early years and reminding us why they became one of the biggest names in rock. Don't miss out on this hidden gem - it's a true treasure for any music lover.
