LYNCH MOB – Rebel (2015)
George Lynch brings the fire alongside Jeff Pilson (bass), Brian Tichy (drums), and the ever-reliable Oni Logan (vocals).
“Automatic Fix”
Modern metal fury. Lynch dives in with barked bends and lyrical legato lines that scream more like a rallying cry than a guitar solo. No shred for shred’s sake—just a sharpened blade of six-string intent.
“The Ledge”
Not here for the solo, just a damn good song that deserves a nod.
“War”
Four solo sections. All of them smoke. Each one has its own identity, from groove to grit to gut punch.
GEORGE LYNCH – Shadow Train (2015)
Lynch’s most politically charged, introspective, and sonically adventurous work.
A double LP born from a documentary about Indigenous culture vs. Western capitalism, “Shadow Train” blends hard rock, funk, blues, and Native American textures.
With Gregg Analla (vocals), Gabe Rosales (bass), Donnie Dickman (keys), and Jimmy D’Anda (drums), this album doesn’t just play, it speaks.
“Vulture”
Opens the album with palm-muted alternate picking and searing legato, Lynch is on fire from the jump.
“Believe”
Funky and soulful. The wah-soaked solo sounds like a back-alley sermon crashing into a bar fight.
“Fallen”
Think “It’s Not Love” meets “Rock and Roll Ain’t Noise Pollution”. Emotional, melodic, and dialed-in.
“Glitter”
A rare major-key jam, and Lynch nails the vibe.
“World on Fire”
Woh oh ohh. Seriously, it sticks in your head like gum on your shoe.
DOKKEN – Return to the East Live (2016)
A live Dokken reunion, with Lynch injecting classic tracks with fresh venom.
Bonus: a new studio cut, “It’s Another Day”, where Lynch basically says, Yeah, I’m back, and I’ve still got it.
PROJECT NFIDELIKAH – Self-Titled (2016)
A wild, genre-smashing trip with Angelo Moore (Fishbone), Pancho Tomaselli, and Chris Moore.
They call it “funk punk ghetto underground.”
We’ll just call it different, in the best way.
LYNCH MOB – The Brotherhood (2017)
The band’s most locked-in lineup in years: Oni Logan, Jimmy D’Anda, and Sean McNabb. This album feels like a battle-hardened brotherhood forged through the tour trenches.
“Main Offender”
Opens with a snarl and doesn’t let go. Lynch’s solo is a glitch in the Matrix, angular, fast, and freakishly precise.
“Until the Sky Comes Down”
A slow burn that builds into a fire. The solo slinks, drips, then explodes.
“Black Heart Days”
Galloping riffs. Soaring leads. It’s triumphant and dirty all at once.
SWEET & LYNCH – Unified (2017)
Michael Sweet and George Lynch ride again. More awesome songs than standout solos.
“Promised Land”
Underrated single. Deserved better.
“Unified”
Signature post-Dokken groove. Anthemic.
“Bridge of Broken Lies”
A power ballad that cuts deep.
“Better Man”
Lynch tones it down, lets the melody breathe. Hooks for days.
KXM – Scatterbrain (2017)
Round two from Lynch, Doug Pinnick, and Ray Luzier. Still weird. Still cool.
“Scatterbrain”
The verse riff is pure legato gymnastics. Solo keeps it mood-driven and minimal.
“Big Sky Country”
Groovy, heavy, has that Bryan Ferry “Let’s Stick Together” vibe somehow.
“Panic Attack”
Sinister riff. Unhinged solo. Melodic chaos.
“It’s Never Enough”
A funk-metal stew. Lynch colors the canvas without hijacking the track.
“True Deceivers”
Funk-blues-metal hybrid. Solo whirls, bends, and rips into a killer outro.
ULTRAPHONIX – Original Human Music (2018)
Corey Glover (Living Colour) + Lynch + an airtight rhythm section = genre-bending rock that actually works.
“Baptism”
Like Live, Sevendust, and Lynch Mob got stuck in an elevator with a gospel choir.
“Another Day”
Lynch’s best solo of this era? Maybe. Think “Like a Stone”, but rawer and dirtier.
“Free”
Big Zeppelin energy, “Kashmir” and “No Quarter” vibes all over it.
“Power Trip”
Funk-soul-rock banger. Lynch leans into the swagger.
THE END MACHINE – Self-Titled (2019)
The closest thing we’ll get to a modern Dokken rebirth. Lynch, Pilson, Brown, and Robert Mason create something that’s nostalgic and fresh.
“No Game”
“AC/DC” stomp meets “Lynch Mob” finesse. Best track on the album.
“Ride It”
Shifts gears mid-song like a concept piece. Solo evolves like a goddamn movie scene.
“Alive Today”
Zeppelin groove, Beatles chorus, Dokken energy. That solo break? Magic.
“Sleeping Voices”
Classic Lynch-Pilson chemistry. Stay for the outro solo, “Mr. Scary” lives.
KXM – Circle of Dolls (2019)
The trilogy ends on a high note. Strange, soulful, heavy.
“Lightning”
Strong vibe. Outro jam rips.
“Twice”
Starts like “For Those About to Rock”, then shifts into melodic alt-rock.
“Big As the Sun”
That solo? Total Schenker vibes. Funk-rock with Euro-metal sauce.
From 2015 to 2019, Lynch wasn’t just busy, he was building his own multiverse. Whether shredding, grooving, or experimenting, he never phoned it in. He gave his best. Every project felt like a different side of the same mad scientist and the results were wild, unpredictable, and at times, absolutely brilliant.
