Lynch found fame in the 1980s as the lead guitarist in the band Dokken (of which he had been a member since 1980). Dokken had a string of successful platinum albums such as Under Lock and Key and Back for the Attack that prominently featured Lynch’s inventive lead guitar work. The instrumental track “Mr. Scary” on Back for the Attack contributed to his popularity among guitar players. The band earned a Grammy nomination for Best Metal Performance in 1990.

This prompted Lynch to reunite Lynch Mob members, calling up Oni Logan, Anthony Esposito and Mick Brown. The group entered the studio and demoed three songs (later released as an EP titled Syzygy), but Logan decided to pursue other projects before a full album could be completed. Mick Brown decided to stay with Dokken. George organized a short 13 show U.S. tour for Lynch Mob in 1998 with Artension frontman John West, Anthony Esposito and others.

The album did not do as well as expected and the band was dropped from the label. Dokken then signed on with CMC International and released an “unplugged” show performed in late 1994 titled One Live Night. By 1996 the band entered the studio and hired producer Kelly Gray who, along with Lynch, Pilson and Brown, wanted to take Dokken in a new direction, to the dismay of vocalist and founder Don Dokken, and released Shadowlife, a complete switch from melodic rock to a more alternative sound. By 1997, tensions had again flared between Don and Lynch, which led to Lynch being replaced by former Europe guitarist John Norum.
