George Lynch - Kill All Control
Posted on 22:00 by Unknown
The once credible and mighty axe man from Dokken drops another album post Dokken glory days. So far he's really been a misfiring maniac. Outside of the first two Lynch Mob albums from '90 and '92 he's really dropped a ton of crap music. This isn't the case with Kill All Control as I play this album with no expectation of it being remotely listenable. The album isn't a total wash and does have some good songs now and again.
The album has multiple vocalists one of being Marq Torien of the Bullet Boys and he's another of the hair metal alumni that hasn't done much worth listening to himself. Here he does a fairly good impression of Don Dokken and Jeff Pilson on two of his three tracks. The last of his songs "Here Comes The Sun" sounds more like his Bullet Boys wail but its really produced well and kept in control. A pretty slick hard rocker with his other two being a little more modern sounding but his vocal on the title track is awesome and one of the best he's ever recorded.
London LeGrand plays a part on this album as well, his stint working with Nikki Sixx's Brides Of Destruction didn't make me go ooh that guy cool it was more like oh that guy sorta sucked. His first track on the album is a modern rock snoozer ballad type song and then I listened to another of his efforts where he sang better but again another mid-paced melodic modern rock tune. Nothing great just bland which brings us to his final vocal "Go It Alone" which is a snotty sleaze rock tune that has a bit of a punk feel mixed in for good measure.
Will Martin of Earshot and Keith St. John of Montrose both make appearances. Neither are stellar nor are they terrible. It's a pretty average affair and if you've got money to spend it could find a better investment for sure.
Song Highlights: Kill All Control, Son Of Scary, Resurrect & Sun
