SWEET & LYNCH — the super-band featuring guitarist / vocalist Michael Sweet of STRYPER, legendary guitarist George Lynch (ex DOKKEN, LYNCH MOB), bassist James LoMenzo (White Lion, Megadeth) and drummer Brian Tichy (Whitesnake, Billy Idol, Dead Daisies) — will release its sophomore album, “Unified“, on November 10 via Frontiers Music.
A few years back we got Only To Rise, the first album from a collaboration between Sweet and Lynch. While more melodic rock and commercial than both artists’ other recent endeavors, the release still impressed, and proved that they twosome had surprisingly strong musical chemistry.

The duo’s debut album was an unexpected surprise, and definitely has had fans excited for the second release and their equally-notable rhythm section of LoMenzo and Tichy.
So, how does “Unified” stack up? Is the second Sweet & Lynch album another success?

Without looking it up, my first thought was that Within Silence was...
