Queensrÿche
Empire is the largest-selling album in Queensrÿche's history. Following up the band's first commercial success (Operation: Mindcrime), Empire couldn't be more different musically. Empire's songs all stand by themselves as tough singles, though arguably "Silent Lucidity" stands head and shoulders above the rest. Empire opens with the frighteningly ...

Empire
(1990)

by
Queensrÿche
One of the most praised metal albums of the late '80s, Operation: Mindcrime was an extremely tough act to follow. But while Empire isn't quite on a par with that gem, it is certainly one of the most absorbing headbanger efforts of 1990. Highly conceptual and anything but redundant, Empire demonstrates beautifully just how imaginative Queensrÿche ...

Queensrÿche
Queensrÿche scored their breakthrough success with the ambitious concept album Operation: Mindcrime, which tells the story of a fortune hunter whose disillusionment with Reagan-era American society leads him to join a shadowy plot to assassinate corrupt leaders.

The Warning

by
Queensrÿche
1984's The Warning proved to be a holding pattern for Seattle's Queensrÿche, offering quality classic metal with lyrics tending to the mystical and occult. The band would soon embark on a massive creative growth spurt, but they seem to be treading water on tracks like "En Force," "Sanctuary," and the pedestrian title cut. Bright spots include the ...

Queensrÿche
Tribe is, in so many ways, a make or break album for Queensrÿche. While the Live Evolution set brought home 30 tracks of the Rÿche's concert material -- with or without founding guitarist Chris DeGarmo -- the band's studio output since Promised Land (and some would debate the validity of that album) has been inconsistent. For starters, there was ...

In fact, their 1983 self-titled debut EP, while largely ignored in America, became a sensation in the U.K. and Europe. The band displays an obvious Iron Maiden influence in their early songs, ...

Queensrÿche
After tasting success from both their self-titled debut EP and The Warning, Queensrÿche lost their edge a bit on this release. The hair metal movement was fast approaching and this once-unique band now looked -- and for the most part, sounded -- like the average metal band of the day. The signature sound of Queensrÿche is still unmistakable, as ...

Queensrÿche returned from a four-year absence with Promised Land only to find the hard rock landscape very different than the one they left in 1990. But Queensrÿche did something smart. Instead of trying to adjust themselves to fit into the world that their Seattle brethren had created, they simply stayed the same. Not only was the record a ...

One of the great unknown facts of '90s metal was Queensryche's consistently intriguing, satisfying output. Although the mainstream left them behind after grunge, they never totally revamped their sound, in hopes of regaining a wide audience. They kept on with their ambitious, layered fusion of metal and prog rock, turning in albums that were ...

How do you make a bona fide classic better? EMI certainly has their idea. There was no way they could let Rhino steal the glory -- and the money -- with their fine issue of Operation: Mindcrime II. That recording had all the elements that made the Queensrÿche original great, using '80s studio technology to create a seamless sequel to the original. ...

That means there's a preponderance of hair metal, but in this case, that's a good thing, because the songs included are consistently memorable and instantly recognizable. There's also a nice blend ...

This was inevitable. In 2006, Seattle's proto-'80s and '90s metal rockers Queensrÿche released a sequel to their critical and commercial classic Operation: Mindcrime, entitled, appropriately enough, Operation: Mindcrime II, recorded by using the same technology they'd used to do the original in 1988. Far from being cheesy, the experiment worked: ...
