That release received praise as great hard rock/heavy metal album from many fans as well as from music critics, with the All Music Guide's Eduardo Rivadavia stating that many songs "find the band locking on to a powerful groove". Despite poor sales, many felt that if it had been recorded a few years earlier it would have sold very well and maybe even hit number one.
Still, the group solidered on, and 1992's self-titled follow up Lynch Mob featured new vocalist Robert Mason in Logan's place. Yet, in the wake of even poorer sales figures and some critical reviews, the group disbanded in 1993.
Lynch spent the mid-90s in a reunited Dokken line-up, but by 1998 he had once again quit Dokken and was working on a new rap-metal version of Lynch Mob. 1999's Smoke This was poorly received, prompting another split.
In 2003, Lynch, Mason and original bassist Anthony Esposito reformed yet another incarnation of Lynch Mob, this time updating their original sound rather than follow the rap-metal direction of the late 90s iteration of the band.
This line-up didn't last long, and Lynch soon turned his attention to solo albums and his band with former Brides of Destruction singer London LeGrand, Souls of We.
In 2008, the original line-up of Dokken was slated to play Rocklahoma, but when the reunion fell through Lynch used the opportunity to reunite Lynch Mob with original vocalist Oni Logan.
The album Smoke and Mirrors was released in 2009, with Lynch and Logan describing it as the proper follow-up to Wicked Sensation.
Unfortunately, despite the album receiving a relatively positive reception from fans, Lynch Mob's line-up has been especially volatile in recent years. Numerous members have come and gone, including bassists Marco Mendoza and James Lomenzo and drummer Brian Tichy. Mick Brown also rejoined the band briefly. A few shows in 2010 even saw vocalists Marq Torien (Bulletboys) and Keith St. John (Montrose) fill in for Logan.
In July 2011, when Lynch Mob was set to embark on a US tour, Logan suddenly quit the band. Chas West (ex-Bonham) was quickly brought in to finish the tour.
In January 2012, Lynch announced that Jesse Forte (ex-Vains of Jenna) would be the new singer of Lynch Mob. However, soon after, Forte explained that Lynch informed him by phone that he and Logan had reconciled. Lynch later announced that he and Logan were working on a new album.
in October 2022, Lynch resumed performing under the Lynch Mob moniker and would release a new studio album, "Babylon", in the fall of 2023.

Lynch Mob Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
It's a time I can't forget
'cause you're a ball of fire burnin'
Every woman needs a man
So baby, here I am
To make your wheels of love keep turnin'
No, tell me I'm not dreamin'
To keep me screamin'
Through the night
You got a lot of love
And I want it
Let me take you
Let me make you mine
You got a lot of love
And I want it
I can't do without you
One more night
I'm spending every endless night
Let it burn with all my might
Honey, nothing gets me higher
Baby, if you just give in
We can both begin
To feelin' every burnin' fire
No, tell me I'm not dreamin'
Tease me just enough
To keep me screamin'
Through the night
You got a lot of love
And I want it
Let me take you
Let me make you mine
You got a lot of love
And I want it
Never saw a woman
Look so right
Ooh, I can't do without you
One more night
I've been watching you, yes, I have
You got a lot of love
And I want it
Let me take you
Let me make you mine

Never saw a woman
Look so right

And I want it
Let me take you
Let me make you mine
You got a lot of love
And I want it
I can't do without you
