DOKKEN Mainman Don Dokken On New Album - "You Could Say The Sound Is Very Heavy Like 'Kiss Of Death'"
April 25, 2007, 17 years ago
DOKKEN mainman Don Dokken spoke to Deb Rao from KNAC.com recently about a number of topics including their forthcoming album, Lightning Strikes Again, due out in September. A few excerpts follow:
KNAC.com: Tell me about your time in the studio recording your soon to be released Lightning Strikes Again.
Dokken: Our new album is going to be better than ever. You just have to write what you feel. I don't want to write the same record over and over again. These days are much harder to get promotion. Everybody downloads, and it is a whole new world. Record companies don't work like they used to. Now the Internet is taking control.
KNAC.com: What kind of style will the new album have? Will it have that early Dokken signature sound?
Dokken: It will be a very heavy, progressive record. Just some cool songs, some dark songs, and some medium tempo. Some of the best work that I have done in years. I am not looking for any kind of sound. I am just writing whatever spiritual inspiration comes to me. You could say the sound is very heavy like 'Kiss Of Death'.
