[02/17/08] DOKKEN'sLightning Strikes Againwill be released in Europe on April 11, 2008 on Frontiers Records. This is Dokken’s 10^th studio album and echoes one of the band’s classic songs from Under Lock & Key. The band says that the new cd marks a true and definite return to the classic sound of their heyday. “We have been more focused on this project than any we've done in years” says singer Don Dokken. "Yes, it has taken a long time but in the end the fans will have a Dokken cd that is as good as any we did in the 80's. Our goal is to deliver a CD that will shake up the rock world... and so far everyone says it is the best Dokken cds since ‘86. It’s time that a band from our era did something special and prove that our brand of music is still valid. And I think we’re close, if it does not have success it won't be because we didn't give it a thousand percent effort."

In this interview Bill talks about FireHouse's latest release, Prime Time (a truly killer 80s hard rock platter!), the fans' expectations, rock radio, and his previous solo album, Wanderlust.
