Album of the weekend

Sweet & Lynch-Only to Rise

An album from the duo of Michael Sweet from Stryper and George Lynch from Dokken, I bought this on a whim while going on a road trip a few days ago. It has a very 1980's rock to it, if that's not your thing than don't waste your 10 dollars on this. The entire album is good though, with only one or two songs that aren't worth the download. 

The song "Rescue Me" has a slight country feel to it, but it's still enjoyable. The ballad, "Me Without You" sounds very retro and a little over produced-it's one of the few duds. "Recover" and "Only to Rise" are two of the stand outs, and the song dedicated to September 9/11, simple called "September" is touching. 

It doesn't sound like Stryper and it doesn't sound like Dokken. It's a good album though.
