Customer Reviews

This is a supprise
I missed Oni Logan a lot, since he is one of my fav.. vocalist. First Lynch Mob album is one of my favorite albums.
This album is even stronger when it comes to songwriting.
The title track smoke and mirrors, is one of the best songs I heard in a log time.
It reminds me of good old whitesnake, when they had the blues feeling.
Oni Logan sounds fantastic, so does George. The bassplayer is also nice. The drummer is a little boring to me, does the job, nothing more.
This was unexpected. Don't listen to the first reviewer. This album is a big supprise, and you will love it.

I can't get the song "smoke and mirrors" out of my head :D

George's lame attempt to get his old fans back
There are so many things that make George Lynch special, and they usually shine the brightest on his not-so-popular albums such as Lynch Mob's "Smoke This" and Lynch/Pilson's album. His intense riffs, his skilled and sometimes beautiful songwriting, his schizophrenic guitar playing throughout a song... there's so much to this guy that makes him the best guitarist ever. However, he has been cursed by a group of fans who tend to hate when he tries to grow as a musician. Due to the majority of his fans always hanging onto the Dokken and old Lynch Mob days, this album is George's lame attempt to get a bunch of his fans back. What a dud this record is. He actually has a song on here that's a rip-off of the much better "Jungle of Love", which was a song influenced by "Wicked Sensation". You made your point with "Jungle of Love", George, stop already.

In short, these riffs, solos, and vocals have all been heard before and are a poor man's "Wicked Sensation" with just a few updated elements that really don't do anything for these songs. Why doesn't George realize that his best music comes when he does what he wants and doesn't compromise? Yes, I realize he doesn't sell records or attract crowds that way, but there's nothing stopping him from giving in and just opening at shows where nobody knows who he is but WILL know by the time his set is over. Seriously, open for a big club band, blow them out of the water, and you'll make a name for yourself, George. And why not play more in Japan and South America, where they'll love anything you do? God, Souls of We was bad enough, but bringing Oni back for this rehash junk is ridiculous.
