Official Queensryche Thread - NEW ALBUM INFO. p. 30

For me personally, I would say it's a safe bet/prediction, that this will be album of the year.

[The King in Crimson]

That was a good song.

I liked it much more than Redemption.

[PowerSlave]

For me personally, I would say it's a safe bet/prediction, that this will be album of the year.

It might be for me as well. I'll have to weigh it against the new Fates Warning album when it arrives and I'm still somewhat interested in hearing what DT does as well.

[Lolzeez]

This.

[wolfking]

Pretty killer song.

[Mister Gold]

If you guys liked Fallout, here's Where Dreams Go To Die. Parker knocked it out of the freaking ballpark with this song, IMO.

Shit quality but that song sounds incredible.  This is going to be one killer album.  This song alone is better than the entire FU album.

I stayed up to hear the live debut on the radio last night and the audio quality was a lot better there. But yeah, amazing song.

That's an awfully bold statement with all the albums already out, and still to come - Spock's Beard, Avantasia, Dream Theater, Ayreon, Transatlantic ... and a lot others on my radar.  I'll just be happy if it cracks the top 10, and extremely impressed if it hits top 5.

Yeah it's a bold statement for sure! But I have been hoping for a true heavy metal/hard rock release from Queensryche since the late 90s; now it's officially going to happen. That's probably going to have a lot to do for me personally in regards to the enjoyment of this release. Based on the three songs I've heard, this will be an amazing disc. There are still Fates Warning, DT and hopefully Priest releases to come!

A lot of the prior links for Where Dream Go To Die were taken down, but there is now an official link up:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h9KOvIdk8gc

IMO, each of these three songs is much better than anything on Dedicated to Chaos or F.U.

[Lowdz]

So looking forward to this. QR are back. I think tate's statement that the rest of the band can't write a song is dead in the water.

[ColdFireYYZ]

I really liked Redemption at first, but I had no desire to listen to it again after hearing it a few times. Fallout sounded much better, despite the poor audio quality. I'm listening to Where Dreams Go To Die right now and I'm really enjoying it. It's easily my favorite of the three I've heard so far.

I doubt that this album will crack my top 10 of the year, but that's only because there were so many other great new releases this year (with many more to come). Based on what we've heard, I'm certain that this will be a great album!

[bosk1]

...only because there were so many other great new releases this year

[TAC]

Like Jboy said, that is pretty bold. I hope you're not disappointed.

[Zook]

Bosk does not agree.

[ColdFireYYZ]

...only because there were so many other great new releases this year

I'm not sure I get what's funny. Are you laughing at the fact that I think there were good albums released this year, or did I word it badly and it only makes sense to me? 

[bosk1]

No...I assumed you were joking when you said it has been a great year for new releases, so I was laughing with you since I find that hilarious.  Apparently, you weren't joking?

[Zook]

Well nothing is going to beat Stone Sour for album(s) of the year, but these 3 songs released by Queensryche prove that Tate was the problem all along... Not that it wasn't obvious.

WOW!  ...... it's amazing to hear this band this way again!

[ColdFireYYZ]

Not joking. The new Steven Wilson, Big Big Train, Riverside, Renaissance, Spock's Beard, Bowie, Believe, etc albums are all excellent.

But anyways..back to QR...

[Mebert78]

I've been listening to "Where Dreams Go To Die" all day over and over again at work.  Oh, mama.  It's a beast.  Love it!

[abydos]

I prefer Redemption to this one.

[fibreoptix]

I can't get over how weird it feels to be enjoying brand new QR material again after such a long time. Ever since American Soldier dropped I've missed this excitement.

[jingle.boy]

I can't get over how weird it feels to be enjoying brand new QR material again after such a long time. Ever since American Soldier Tribe dropped I've missed this excitement.

I know how you feel.

[TAC]

Yup.

American Solider was decent, I liked it, but not classic Ryche.  Tribe on the other hand I love, incredible album.

[MoraWintersoul]

Yes this song is awesome yes more please yes album now yes I would have Todd's babies if he asked me nicely enough and the planet was in vague danger.

[King Postwhore]

Man this song is so good!! YES!!

[Dark Castle]

No...I assumed you were joking when you said it has been a great year for new releases, so I was laughing with you since I find that hilarious.  Apparently, you weren't joking?

(List of bands you probably don't give a shit about proving you wrong)
I feel sorry for you if you don't think there's been a lot of good music that's been put out this year so far, because you're missing out on an amazing amount of music that has come out that's absolutely fantastic, and you'll probably be missing out on much more that's yet to come out.

I dig the new song, and feel like this album is going to be quite radular!

No need to feel sorry.  I thought it was pretty much a consensus that this has been a crap year for music so far (and isn't really shaping up to be that great a year in total based on what is coming up).  Hence why I thought he was joking.  But, hey, if there are people out there who actually like some of the stuff that has come out, that's great.  Enjoy. 

[Dark Castle]

If anything, I've heard and found it to be the exact opposite of what you've been hearing...This year's only just about halfway through and there has been an astounding amount of fantastic output that ranges the whole gamut in music and I just find it odd that you think so poorly of this year. I mean I guess a lot of my examples could be classified as "extreme" in tastes for a lot of this board, but even in the alternative/electronic/classic metal/rock atmospheres, there's just been a whole bunch of treats.

[bosk1]

Okay, cool.  I disagree, but, hey, tastes vary.

In Bosk's defense, you could be talking about Taylor Swift. Everyone has different tastes. What you think is amazing, others might think is shit.

EDIT:

[bosk1]

Wow.  Zook is defending my honor.
