Our Take
Our Take
Ah, DOKKEN's "Under Lock and Key," a true gem of 80s hair metal cheese. This album is like a time capsule of big hair, tight pants, and over-the-top guitar solos. Think Spinal Tap meets a really serious episode of MTV Cribs.
From the moment you hit play, you're transported back to a time when MTV actually played music videos and leather jackets were a wardrobe staple. The opening track, "Unchain the Night," sets the tone for what's to come - catchy hooks, shredding riffs, and lyrics that would make even the most seasoned rocker cringe.
But hey, that's part of the charm of DOKKEN. They were never afraid to fully embrace the excesses of the 80s rock scene, and "Under Lock and Key" is no exception. Tracks like "The Hunter" and "In My Dreams" are perfect examples of the band's ability to fuse hard-hitting riffs with melodic choruses that will have you singing along in no time.
Sure, the lyrics may be a tad on the cheesy side, and the production may sound a bit dated, but there's something undeniably infectious about this album. It's the kind of music that you can't help but crank up to 11 and pretend you're a rock god for a few minutes.
So, if you're in the mood for some good old-fashioned 80s nostalgia, give DOKKEN's "Under Lock and Key" a spin. Just be prepared to whip out your air guitar and bust out your best rock star poses. It's a wild ride, but hey, isn't that what rock 'n' roll is all about?

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.
