      I would semi-agree with this. I started with their EP (I actually discovered QR on a mixed band cassette I had with other "up and coming bands" so, I was exposed to them from the some "Queen of the Ryche" I think). Anyway, as much as this album is truly epic, Rage for Order was also way before its time. Very dystopian and disturbing and fantastic. I of course lost my mind when OM came out like everyone else, but for me, the pre-OM albums are on par if not better (if for the nostalgia factor). But there is no denying this album is a masterpiece.

    When the Grammy's added a Heavy Metal category in 1988, everyone was pissed Jethro Tull beat out Metallica, but Queensryche was the one that got snubbed. I love Metalica, I saw with Cliff Burton, but Mindecrime was fricken genius level metal. And, every song rocks and could stand alone.

    Don't know if you ever found the answer ... the female singer on Suite Sister Mary is Pamela Moore. She has toured with them on and off since this album came out, and especially on the Empire tour, in which they did Empire hits in the first act and this album in it's entirety for the second act.

    I love that this album still has the impact it does. The really mind blowing thing is the fact that they can do it live.

  • @purplekat5864
    @purplekat5864 2 года назад +19

    Queensryche (original line-up) is my favorite band in the universe! And I've really enjoyed your down-to-earth approach to the songs you listen to. You're honest, but not unnecessarily critical, acknowledging, in so many words, that music is very subjective.
    I totally loved watching you hear O:MC for the first time. And then I scrambled to find your podcast with your friend (who did a GREAT job of recapping each song. He's one of the few people I've heard that has really gotten the finer nuances of the music, lyrics, and overall storyline)!
    May I add that The Mission was one of my least favorites on the album until I heard it several times. Now it's one of my favorites. I don't know if it was by design or subconsciously done, but the part where Nikki is saying how his mission saved the world, and how they'd all stand proud was brilliantly done so that the music under those lyrics was belying the words. There was no triumph or feelings of victory in the music, rather regret and sorrow. And I agree, Nikki's starting to realize the movement he's become involved in is NOT a good one, but he's trying to convince himself otherwise.
    I agree that the title song is great except the chorus isn't quite as captivating as the others.
    But this whole album is truly a masterpiece in every respect. I NEVER get tired of listening to it even after 3+ decades!
    I hope you'll do more QR in the future. I like your approach and comments. I like hearing someone else's perspective.
    QR is a very versatile band. They always pushed out in different directions, yet always maintained that driving intensity and decided QR flavor. Not to mention Geoff''s incredible voice!
    There's one kind of sad but funny little snippet during the intro to Eyes of a Stranger. You'll hear one of the patients faintly in the background informing a nurse, "I don't want to take a bath!"
    Always makes me smile.
    Sorry for going so long. (I'm a little chatty).

      Spreading the disease is as hard as anything you can get from the lyrics to the music. Thrash metal and guttural screeching on them or death metal or nu metal cannot compare in the intensity as far as I am concerned. Then you have the needle lies, as the Norwegians would say "OFTA"!

    Great reaction. I'm gonna hunt down that podcast and check it out. It's very hard to place Queensryche into one genre of metal. The hair-band thing was purely the image - the way they dressed, appeared on stage, album covers, etc. You KNOW that was a studio exec decision, not theirs. What's funny is the transition they make in the follow-up album to O:MC, "Empire," Queensryche's MOST commercial hit. After the success of Mindcrime, they developed enough cred to write their own way, without studio interference, so their transformation both in sound AND in image from their previous album is stark lol. The term "hair band" definitely went out the window, and fans classified them more of a progressive metal band, not so much in terms of their musical intricacies, ala Dream Theatre, but more in their conceptual releases.

      The QR fan chose The Mission! Wow, I didn't expect that at all as its my Favorite song on the album. You picked OM and thats fine because you can really pick one song out of so many great ones. For the record: Michael wilton is also a lead guitarist, they share the duties evenly.

    You could have reacted to the visual album or the Livecrime concert if you wanted visual. Most people don't know they exist though. I still highly recommend! The visual album is like watching a movie or musical. And the concert is pure Rock Opera Theatre and its brilliant!

    Among my top 3 favorite secular albums (I prefer Christian Metal/bands). My other 2 favorite secular metal albums...Back in Black...Screaming for Vengeance. Too many favorite Christian Rock/metal albums to list. Here’s a few...’Snakes in the Playground’ by Bride...’This Might Sting a Little’ by Disciple...’Stop the Bleeding’ by Tourniquet. God bless and Metal on!

    Dude, I'm posting this too early I guess, but are you really doing the whole album? How fucking cool! If you keep doing this I'll be a subscribed fan. No one does this. You get the whole picture of the message being sent by listening to the whole album. This one is metal opera. Only other one I can think if is The Wall. Too cool! Ps: my favorite metal album before 1990. Can't miss a song, must listen from start to end.

      Yeah, I don't know if I could chose between the two. I listen to both more than any other of their albums (And I have them all, Tate era). The "Warning" is a bit of a concept album in it's own rights.

      What's hard about picking favorite albums and songs with QR is that there are so many different elements to love in their songs, and they're pretty diverse in the variety of songs they write ... Well, it's just VERY hard to pick! But if I could only bring ONE CD to a desert island, it would have to be O:M.
