Artist: DOKKEN
Album: BROKEN BONES (CD)

Release date: 2012
Media type: CD

Dokken exploded out of the boiling hard rock/heavy metal scene in Los Angeles in the early 1980s. Such classic albums as “Tooth and Nail”, “Under Lock and Key” and “Back for the Attack” all became Multi-Platinum. Songs like "Alone Again", "Just Got Lucky", "Into the Fire", "In My Dreams", "Unchain the Night", "Dream Warriors", "Burning Like a Flame" and "Heaven Sent" are still nowadays regarded among the genre’s finest. Dokken shared the stage with AC/DC, Metallica, Aerosmith, Judas Priest, Van Halen, Kiss, Scorpions, as well as Bon Jovi, just to name a few.

Dokken are now coming back with their eleventh studio album. “Broken Bones” is a true and definite return to the classic sound of the heydays, following the path that Dokken successfully took already with their latest release "Lightning Strikes Again”.

"Broken Bones" was produced by DOKKEN frontman and namesake Don Dokken and was mixed by Bob St. John (EXTREME, DURAN DURAN, COLLECTIVE SOUL) and Wyn Davis (BLACK SABBATH, DIO, WHITESNAKE) and mastered by famed engineer Maor Appelbaum (HALFORD, YNGWIE MALMSTEEN, SEPULTURA). The new set features a return to the band's signature sound of catchy melodies, hot riffs and monster production.

The drums for the CD were laid down at MOTLEY CRUE drummer Tommy Lee's The Atrium studio in Calabasas, California.

Dokken is going back to the roots of its sound and exposes with a monster production the hot riffs and incredible melodies that built the band’s success. “Broken Bones” rocks hard but still caresses with velvet melodies, this is exactly what the fans have been waiting for !
