4 out of 5 Stars!
Back for the Attack was the fourth and final Dokken album during the band’s initial phase, and probably my favorite of the four, thanks to George Lynch’s shredding guitar riffs and solos on songs such as “Kiss Of Death,” “Sleepless Nights,” “Cry Of The Gypsy,” “Standing In The Shadows,” “Burning Like a Flame,” and especially the killer instrumental track “Mr. Scary.”
It’s hard to deny that, when it came to producing melodic, memorable, and quality Hard Rock during the mid ’80s in America, Don Dokken and his bandmates were generally way ahead of the pack.
