This is one of those very rare albums that could be released in 2023 and if you didn't KNOW it was written 35 years ago, you would never guess it! An absolute Metal masterpiece! 🤘
The problem is the band went through a mid life crisis and Geoff wasn't as sexy and wasn't doing it for them anymore so they left him for a younger hit number lol now they are dyeing their hair
I caught the end of eyes of a stranger in salt lake ,pissed me off had to watch matalica and justice for all instead, I watched them the next time for promised land,great concert.
I first saw Queensryche open for my other all time favorite band Metallica.Which was also my first time seeing them as well. I was blown away by Tate. Still one of the best Heavy Metal singers of all time and Operation Mindcrime is without a doubt one of their best Albums.
This Band set the blueprints for all progmetal that came later. And this album is the "father" of Dream Theater's Scenes from a memory. Operation: Mindcrime is a masterpiece.
Wow!! I haven't listened to them in a while, almost forgot how good they sound. Pulling out all their CD's to re-listen. Saw then in Omaha May 1991 on their Building Empires Tour. They played the entire Mindcrime Album. So freaking Awesome!!!
It s just amazing how they sound playing live. And i ll be forever grateful to my sister who told me they were coming to play Lisbon and she gave me the ticket. I saw many concerts but it was a huge surprise Queensryche coming to Portugal. And they played the whole Operation Mindcrime. One of the best concerts i saw. I was singing along from beggining till the end. No support band, just the good old Queensryche. Got all the momentos, pré, during and after, carved in my inner self
THAT Voice, THOSE Eyes... THOSE Leather Pants~~ I am Salivating, Dear God.what a GORGEOUS Man Geoff is THEN and NOW., and BEYOND TALENTED.THIS was QUEENSRYCHE and Always will be.
Among all the great songs on Operation Mindcrime this is probably my favourite, even ahead of Eyes of a Stranger. Love how the intensity in the singing grows and how the whole song is a slowly building crescendo to the final chorus and then it finishes off with those fantastic last 20 seconds.
Agreed. The plodding, grimy main riff really give off a mental image of Nikki out on the streets determined, but struggling. This one and Waiting for 22 are my favorites.
I never tire of listening to Queensryche's music, especially the early work, during the 1980s. I saw them open for KISS in 1985 and was blown away! Since then, they've always been one of my favorites. I had the honer of meeting Geoff Tate, Parker Lungren and Scott Rockenfield at the Hard Rock Cafe in Seattle in 2011, before all the shit hit the fan, and was impressed with what super cool people they all are. One of the best experiences of my life!
Sadly this band in all forms is lost and always will without Chris Degarmo. Fortunately there are lots of video for new fans of the classic Queensryche to behold.
I saw them live during this fantastic album and they opened up for metallica during there justice for all tour (: Both bands were phenomonal (: God I miss that concert its was truly an amazing event back then (:
Wonderful Geoff💕all songs are greats, but for me, I’m like ‼️the « Thin line » epic, voice big inning style Iggy Pop, and Chang after👋a pleasure, wouah‼️🙏So beautiful song, KISS Geoff, the bester💋👍
I was already riding around in my Fiero (Bruh....) listening to "Rage For Order"when "Op:M/C" was released. I bought it before a two-hour roadtrip upstate, popped it in the player, spared a joint and spent the best two hours of my life driving high. (I don't recommend driving high now. That was 80s weed).
Saw the Ryche in '95 with Type O Negative opening up. Album back then was Promised Land. Must agree that Operation Mindcrime and Mindcrime 2 would make a helluva opera or even a movie!!!!!

Chris DeGarmo: The most underrated lead guitarist in rock history.
Whip ,too is under rated
the best lead guitarist...with the best lead singer of all time. Yup
I agre
VLHulcy95 And a phenomenal songwriter.
Great solos, incredible harmonies, and beautiful transitions one of the all time greats
What you are seeing and hearing is here is the greatest band performing the greatest album while at the top of their game. Magic.
Amen to that brother!
Just watching this video senior post you're absolutely 100% right that's one feels the way I do
Best fucking band in the Universe in their day... Like lightening in a bottle...
I missed out on Tommy but I was there for Queensrÿche
Indeed!
Mindcrime is one of the greatest albums ever recorded. The story line is very close to the way the world really is today.
Still true today.
Even more so nowadays....
The scary thing is that this album came out in May of 1988 and look how much it does match up with reality in 2021
@@kevinwakeman4 LISTENING TO THIS ALBUM, WHILST READING GEORGE ORWELLS 1984 TODAY IS SCARY. SLEEPLESS NIGHTS!
one of the greatest albums? name the others? it is the greatest actually
32 years later and I still love this album.
This is the real Queensryche
One and only ✌️
There's another?
God damn right real queensryche
Once upon a time. What exists now is at least keeping the music alive to audiences.
DeGarmo and Geoff Tate: can it get any better/perfect than that?
I really miss this line up. The most emotional metal ever. If only heads could be removed from the asses, ego's forgotten, reunite and continue on.
This is the only line up for Queensrÿche
The problem is the band went through a mid life crisis and Geoff wasn't as sexy and wasn't doing it for them anymore so they left him for a younger hit number lol now they are dyeing their hair
God I Love the old stuff with Geoff and Degarmo,Wilton
a concert you could never forget, very lucky to have seen them live once \m/
wumpscut1 I saw this concert live in Denver. Will never forget how amazing it was.
I caught the end of eyes of a stranger in salt lake ,pissed me off had to watch matalica and justice for all instead, I watched them the next time for promised land,great concert.
Fortunate to have seen it twice in 2 weeks. Best concert ever!
Rochester, NY. Sung along at the top of my lungs.
I have seen this 4 times live! I can’t get enough!
THE MOST EPIC ALBUM EVER-----MADE NEARLY 2 AND A HALF DECADES AGO....MORE RELAVANT THAN EVER!!!!!!
Scott Rockinfield. One of the most underrated drummers in the world!
This album is a masterpiece!!
I first saw Queensryche open for my other all time favorite band Metallica.Which was also my first time seeing them as well. I was blown away by Tate. Still one of the best Heavy Metal singers of all time and Operation Mindcrime is without a doubt one of their best Albums.
Joseph Kelly That was an incredible show. Saw it in Dallas.
I was salt lake for that,but only caught there last song,so I watched Metallica instead, I was kind of pissed because I missed qieensryche.
@@aherrmie Was There - Epic..
When Metallica was doing Injustice for all🙂....and Queensryche where Doing Operation Mindcrime...one of the best concerts ever!!!
This should be on EVERY classic rock station's play list
omg I totally agree! Geoff's voice deserves to be on every station! :D
K Bear this should be the soundtrack for revolution
I wish. Q 94.5 sucks.
Some of the best music ever recorded, glad I got to see them 7 times.
This Band set the blueprints for all progmetal that came later. And this album is the "father" of Dream Theater's Scenes from a memory.

Tough but this is my favorite song on the album. So much pain and moral struggle. Exceptionally good band live!!!
Julie Engvall mine favorite is Suite Sister Mary but this one is number 2
You can definitely hear the turmoil the character is going through in Geoff’s voice. Absolutely brilliant songwriting throughout the entire album.
It’s my favorite too.
Mindcrime is my favorite and it is my go to for driving long distances.
GOOSEBUMPS STILL, 33 YEARS LATER

Eis um álbum q nenhum música é chata, pq cada música complementa a outra, melhor concerto e performance q já vi, e olha q já tem 30 anos esse concerto
The album only becomes more relevant with each passing year. Sad statement, great album.
My dream is for Queensrÿche to have a reunion with Geoff and Degarmo. And for them to to tour this album and have an encore of songs from past albums.
THAT Voice, THOSE Eyes... THOSE Leather Pants~~ I am Salivating, Dear God.what a GORGEOUS Man Geoff is THEN and NOW., and BEYOND TALENTED.THIS was QUEENSRYCHE and Always will be.
"I want you to reach deep into your hearts & pocketbooks...& take his hand...",🤣🤣🤣 ❤
Beetlejuice, Beetlejuice, Beetlejuice?
these were Queensryche's good old days, before all the punching, spitting, and lawsuits.
Yeah. I don't really care for the new band. It's just not the same without Jeoff.
Geoff can't sing anymore, sadly :/
Who the fuck is Jeoff??
Michael Holmgaard
WRONG
+troubleboy4050 Mister Internet Police Officer!!!!
Among all the great songs on Operation Mindcrime this is probably my favourite, even ahead of Eyes of a Stranger. Love how the intensity in the singing grows and how the whole song is a slowly building crescendo to the final chorus and then it finishes off with those fantastic last 20 seconds.
Rare album. The stars all aligned for this one. Few albums is its equal and none that are better.
It all builds towards that final verse chorus and outro...
Agreed. The plodding, grimy main riff really give off a mental image of Nikki out on the streets determined, but struggling. This one and Waiting for 22 are my favorites.
The original and only Queensrÿche was The Who and Pink Floyd of Gen X
I never tire of listening to Queensryche's music, especially the early work, during the 1980s. I saw them open for KISS in 1985 and was blown away!

ha!!! That was the first time I was introduced to them also, the Animalize tour if I remember correctly.
I forgot how good this song was, with all the other greats on this album. Amazing, the way it builds in intensity and drama.
An absolute awesome performance, the epitome of 1990's concert excellence captured on film.....
i love queensryche it so puts me in the mood ..........
lol what's with hot chicks loving QR? I know Geoff Tate is irresistible, but damn...lol, my ex gf was in love with 90's Tate.
Nice
Sadly this band in all forms is lost and always will without Chris Degarmo. Fortunately there are lots of video for new fans of the classic Queensryche to behold.
Saw them as opener for Ozzy on Ultimate Sin tour..great show all the way around...
this and rage for order are their best 2 albums
Totally agree!!
empire 3rd
That SOLO!!
The Mission is my favorite song from this album. Damn, DeGarmo was a legend.
inspiring,melodic,dramatic.......Queensryche!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
δακρυζει κανεις με τους στιχους
I'll never tire from these great songs & videos!
jamie casteel How are you doing?
jamie casteel Good, thanks
I'll never tire iron ;)
Sean Morpheus So true
Kristen Dokken i never get tired of your great taste in music and your love for queensryche
Awesome box set I have it on VHS and cassette. Classic song. Takes me Way back.
Every now and then a band comes along that has all the right ingredients. They were that band.
Always will love this band got me thru some crappy times in my life! I could listen to them forever and ever! Best ever!
I would’ve loved to see them back then
Ions of the most epic choruses ever written and the best concept album ever.
such an amazing band! I cant get enough of Tate's voice and the whole band intensity of their songs, just wonderful.
Ese disco fue una obra maestra, completo! Operation mindcrime!
I saw them live during this fantastic album and they opened up for metallica during there justice for all tour (: Both bands were phenomonal (: God I miss that concert its was truly an amazing event back then (:
Angel R. Diaz It was an incredible show.
@@aherrmie Yes it was (: Truly a unforgettable show (:. God where's the time machine (:
Absolutely the GREATEST GUITARIST EVER.
one of their best ever songs
This verse has the greatest riff of all time imo.
Happy Birthday, Geoff!! You are very missed!!
Where did he go?
Legendary shit!!! Glad I was there to partake
This melodic guitar riff by DeGarmo in this piece is absolute pure genius..................
YESSSS!!!! Queensryche is the greatest..I've always liked them..This song is so awesome..Thank you for this awesome post...
my favorite song off Mindcrime. Epic, deep, and dark.
Blessed to have lived this era.
perhaps the greatest concept album of ALL-TIME! HAIL QUEENSRYCHE!
Song just absolutely kicks ass! Seen this tour and they were amazing!!
I love this whole album 😁
One of the few bands from the era (if not all progressive musical history) that did it RIGHT! Legends in their own time.
Greatest song Queesryche ever wrote and performed.
Epic, it’s « the Mission » 🙋🏽♀️Great Song , video👍
Saw this concert twice in the same week at different venues, just awesome , still one of my favourite albums 🤘
You lucky SOB!
GREATEST live performance EVER!!!!!!!!

Wonderful Geoff💕all songs are greats, but for me, I’m like ‼️the « Thin line » epic, voice big inning style Iggy Pop, and Chang after👋a pleasure, wouah‼️🙏So beautiful song, KISS Geoff, the bester💋👍
An unbelievably legendary performance. This was simply mindblowing.....
DeGarmo's kicks are ferocious!
Chris. Geoff. Scott. All gone... do sad. This band in their days should have been on top of the world
All the songs a so good on here. Takes me back to high school.
I search the past back to a time when i was younger, a target for the new society...
Só de ouvir esta música linda, já da pra constatar que o melhor álbum da banda queensryche é operation mind crime.
The Mission Always a great Ryche tune to Rock out to! Classic!
Way before their time!
My fave song by them!
All 5 of them are gods!!!!!!
Their brilliance will never be matched. Mindcrime is a masterpiece.
Unbelievable audio on this live recording. This is almost better than the album version....
Wish Chris would join the group again. He's the one with that Progressive writing talent.
Miss them so much....Chris....wish you guys Come together one more time
Livecrime was amazing.
*greatest band ever*
Fantastic song.
Geoff tate magical voice!!! Queensryche forever my fav band of all time
3:22 outshined 🎸
Chris DeGarmo was the heart and soul of this band.
God damn if I had a time machine…..
I was already riding around in my Fiero (Bruh....) listening to "Rage For Order"when "Op:M/C" was released. I bought it before a two-hour roadtrip upstate, popped it in the player, spared a joint and spent the best two hours of my life driving high. (I don't recommend driving high now. That was 80s weed).
One of there best IMHO.
2021...Yep...Still rocking as hard as ever .
This is in my top 3 Operation:Mindcrime songs. Revolution Calling, Eyes of a Stranger and this. But they're all awesome.
My favorite album of all time❤️it!
Quanto erano grandi !!!! Mi manca questa musica e queste voci non contraffatte 🖤🖤🖤🖤
2:31 ... Oh, Geoff... lol
this song and roads to madness are my fav tri-ryche songs ever!!!!
This is the best song in the 90's, sir.
Saw the Ryche in '95 with Type O Negative opening up. Album back then was Promised Land. Must agree that Operation Mindcrime and Mindcrime 2 would make a helluva opera or even a movie!!!!!
Geoff Tate right up there with Dio,Halford,and Dickenson.
Damn! I love this song!!!
