Loving the line of the 3 last albums. Todd gave the band's Prog/Metal punch from the 3 first records, with a modern production. Will surely buy the album (Sergio Mazul - SEMBLANT)
People piss and moan about bands putting out records! When are we gonna get one they ask? Then when they get a taste of a new record well you know the rest! Lol!
@giftofgab247 Actually I'm the one not sure what you're talking about cause this is in the same vein as rage for order and has hints of operation mindcrime! What exactly do you think queensryche sound like? Q2K?
@giftofgab247 Dude I have every one of their albums in my truck and I listen to at least one a day cause I drive an hr and a half to and from work everyday. Does it sound like a carbon copy of those albums, no but it sounds like it could have been an album in the early catalog before they turned to cheese rock like Q2K! Their one of my favorite bands but there towards the end with Tate they sucked and for years I wanted a return to the heavier side of queensryche and here it is. I guess you're a fan of their cheese rock years?
@@NomahsSportsCards absolutely agree Parker Is absolutely awesome !!!!! The band as it is now ,is sounding the very best since Operation Mindcrime .....
@giftofgab247 Exactly. Great job by Todd. Taking the group to its Warning/Rage for Order days. Exellent comment by you. Thanks for the reply. You are a true Ryche fan for wanting them to return to their 80s glory. Once again, great comment by you. I salute you.
@giftofgab247 Been a fan for over 30 yrs. Seen them many times with Geoff. Handful of times with Todd. Geoff's behavior the last few yrs with the group was abominable. His last few albums with Ryche sucked to say the least. Todd has breathed new life into the band. He is awesome live. His voice is quite strong and can easily hit the high notes. I love that this new album might harken back to their 80s heyday. So well done Todd and the band. Good to see that the whole band contributes to the songs instead of Geoff and outside writers. But you've moved on from the band and that's quite okay. So once again. Great job by Todd and I look forward to see the band out on the road.
No doubt ... I give credit where it is due and they definitely have me listening again ... Always be a Tate fan but we do need some new rock n roll ....
The Verdict and Condition Human are both excellent albums and excellent QUEENSRYCHE albums. Best since Promised Land. I haven't heard the self titled with Todd yet though.
Queensrÿche is definitely back! I can't wait to hear the full album. I am so impressed with the direction that they're heading and the sound is just fantastic. THIS is what we've needed to hear from the band for the last 25 years. Now that Tate is a distant memory, the guys can move forward and kick ass!
This has some really awesome lyrics!!! Queensryche is the thinking man’s band and this really proves it!! Grooving bass line and rhythm...killer solo! This album will be EPIC!!
Love the lyrics "So hail, hail to deathmocracy Hell for your thought crimes, hail to your piety Oh, the irony, the antidote is the desease The balancing of ignorance and atrophy"
Wow, the musicality is back and it's just so cool to see this band revitalized!!! Todd understands the "project" that Queensryche is for each song. There's a meaning and/or a message...left to your own point of view. Parker Lundgren gets that same vibe and is only getting better at creating original contributions in song-writing and melodic leads. The song-writing is back between all of the band members and it sounds like everyone's contributing! Please just keep getting better guys!!!
Operation Mindcrime. On vinyl, back in November '88. Still remember listening into it at my favourite local record store, marking it as the first record (out of seven) to buy that day. (Among the others were Coroner - Punishment For Decadence, Anthrax - State Of Euphoria, Overkill - Under The Influence, Destruction - Release From Agony and probably Helstar - A Distant Thunder. My memory is kinda foggy. When MTV used to play music and Vanessa Warwick presented Headbanger's Ball.
Wow... just wow. This is about the 20th time I've listened and I just keep hearing more and more. The dynamics are back! I got goosebumps listening just now.
Yeah it's pretty fucking great. Seriously takes me back to when I first heard Queen of the Ryche. Not exaggerating. It has that same effect for me.. that, holy shit who are these guys effect. Far cry from Dedicated to Chaos.. far cry.
i wish song was a bit longer only complaint on the song man the machine .such a epic song im more excited for this cd release over the album condition human!!!!!
@@janpeterson1206 Todd completely outclasses Tate in the vocal range category. Tate could sing high but La Torre can hold it and is more on key I feel like.
@@noahcross4888 Noah ' Frist ... Todd has learned the art of copying very well ! In Geoff younger days he had more range than todd and held it well ! Go back to the first album! Todd can't duplicate it ! Besides i always like the creativity of original singers! Todd copies well! I am a professional Entertainer / Performer for 45 years! I loss a little along the way but have gained alot also ! RESPECT FOR THE ORIGINAL! Thanks for reading! Saw Geoff when he was 15 in a Tacoma SEATTLE band!
I have been a fan of Queensryche since they released their first LP. I am still a fan. Looking forward to the new album. Glad to see them moving forward and making new music again!
Bingo. Remember how many of those Tate-cultists creamed themselves over "Re-Inventing the Mission" or that Three Tremors Mk II song (I think it was called "Taking on the World" or something like that)? The only really good music he's been on since his firing (and really for his entire career) had someone who wasn't his yes-man as it's main musical leader- this time in Avantasia.
When Queensryche went through all the mess a while back, sure...I was on the fence with the new sound alike singer but hey, I'm good. At least they are still out there soldiering on. Sure, DeGarmo and others aren't here any longer but you know what, it's still good music. In a world filled with shit like 6-9 or whatever he calls himself, we need all the metal we can get.
Apparently it is Todd playing. Speaking personally as a drummer, he's done a great job. Altho as a Ryche fan, I'm bummed that it's not Rockenfield playing. And if I'm being truthful, I was hoping to hear Casey on at least some of the songs if Scott wasn't gonna do it.
@@Williameagleblanket Yes... I believe it was the Harris family running the 206 fan club out of a record store .. before anybody knew who QueensRyche was
It's really sad that some people still can't come to terms with the fact that Tate isn't in the band anymore. Get over it. If you don't like the Todd Latorre, that's OK but to come here and hurl insults and throw tantrums about it is childish. Grow up and do something more constructive with your time.
Absolutely he sounds good. He doesn't sound like he did in QR. Mickey Thomas still sounds good, but doesn't sound like Mickey Thomas. Some voices just change that way.
Melted my face....and that's a good thing...sounds like old ryche to me. People complaining about Tate being gone should go back to their last 5 or so crap albums and then tune in to when Tate was spitting on the band members during live shows.. Real classy and I am glad he is gone...
Some people are never happy. I really like this lead off track for the new record. Its typical 'Ryche in so many ways, thought provoking intelligent lyrics, soaring vocals and great melodic but also driving guitar playing. I appreciate this isn't breaking new ground (yet), but how many bands are as good as this after so long. Keep it up guys :)
I had some small, not fears, but uncertainties about this new album. They have just been laid to rest with this new single. i'm so excited for this album
I feel like you can hear Todd has a lot more influence on this song than the last album. You can really hear the Crimson Glory influence more. I don't mind it, just saying the melding with the Queensryche base is very interesting and it actually gives me a throwback to being a teenager type feel again. Weird, but I like it.

Hi Sergio, will you guys tour Europe some time soon?
Love your band too.
Hey, friends. Thank's for the support and YES, we will figure on an European role at the end of 2021!
back to back excellent albums!
I sure see a lot of complaining. We should just be thankful this band is STILL around!!
people cant move on that tate is not with the band anymore i like the direction queensryche is going!!!
Let the haters hate! ;)
@@bhgmproductions right on
this song so rock sounds like a bit older queensryche
People piss and moan about bands putting out records! When are we gonna get one they ask? Then when they get a taste of a new record well you know the rest! Lol!
This sounds amazing guys. Cant wait for the album to come out
Tomorrow
Music is music. THIS is a solid track.
Absolutely amazing!!!! This sounds like the queensryche I fell in love with in the beginning!
There is so much confidence and swagger in the whole song. It's like Warning and even EP level stuff but with a modern bent. Killer stuff.
hell fn yea

@@srh361 @giftofgab247 is a fucking idiot. This could definitely have been on Mindcrime. Has a Needle Lies vibe.
Everyone seems to forget the statospheric guitar playing of Micheal Wilton ... Amazing
Wilton is so underrated
Wilton is a monster on the guitar !
EVEN MORE forget Parker...
@@NomahsSportsCards absolutely agree Parker Is absolutely awesome !!!!! The band as it is now ,is sounding the very best since Operation Mindcrime .....
Yes.....but don‘t forget Parker either!!! He is such a great guy and important partner to Whip
Now this sounds like the Queensryche I love! Great song guys! Looking forward to get the whole CD!
I can't stop listening..they wail
3:10 It sounds to me like KING CRIMSON's "Fallen Angel" song. And it sounds great!
I honestly think this is Mindcrime level quality. Probably the best track from the La Torre era.That second chorus which kicks in at 1:01 is killer.
The balancing on this entire album is absolutely superb. Very old school vibe of course Todd's excellent vocals. Rock on gents 🤘
👊👊👊👊👊🙏🙏🙏🙏
Wow. That was pretty damn good. Todd has wanted a more metal album from the band and it looks like he got it. Excellent.

I am an "old school" Queensryche and when Tate left pretty much gave up on the band. I must say I am impressed with this.
No doubt ... I give credit where it is due and they definitely have me listening again ... Always be a Tate fan but we do need some new rock n roll ....
Tate lost all of my respect when he spit on Scott Rockenfield on stage.
dude I am so slapping myself in the face for judging that book by it cover !!! Todd is kicking ass!!!! kinda like Ronny Munroe with Metal Church did
The Verdict and Condition Human are both excellent albums and excellent QUEENSRYCHE albums. Best since Promised Land. I haven't heard the self titled with Todd yet though.
@@jimthar17 s/t takes a little time, but it has some great tracks on there once you warm up to it.

Excelente música.
Queensryche detonando.
Todd cantando pra caralho... Espero que todo o álbum seja nesta pegada.
Vida longa ao Queensryche.
Excellent tracks! I consider this a hidden gem. I was a huge fan years ago. I'm back!
New queensryche ! Good!!!!👊👊👊👊
so far so good... Queensrÿche is definitely alive!

So far so good so what lol get the reference

"So hail, hail to deathmocracy
Hell for your thought crimes, hail to your piety

Been a fan since the warning... I have to admit it still has the elements of the RYCHE !!!
YES...THEY ARE BACK !!!

In tears of enjoyment...lol Proud to say your my Home Town Band!!!!
Verdict: Return to the past and former glory. At last! :)
🤘🤘🎸🎸🎸Michael Wilton💓💓
Great excelent.I'm looking forward to hearing the whole album
Now, this what I'm talking about. Damn it's good!
Sure is so looking forward to release date!!!
I remember a time when I stopped buying the new Queensrÿche-records. A distant memory now.
Kinda wipes the stink of American Soldier and Dedicated To Chaos away, doesn't it.
Me too, after Dedicated to Chaos.
@@marcnegnivan1382 Mine was Hear and the Now Frontier. I actually bought the CD and brought it back for an exchange. Only time I ever did that!

This sounds awesome!!! Been a Queensryche fan since'87 and I hope the rest of this record sounds this awesome!
i so love this song queensryche is back with vengeance!!!!

The Ryche is back and is on 🔥
Awesome !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! A nod to the early years with the dynamics of today.Epic stuff guys.

As usual, great job guys, love the energy and progressive sound.
Queens ryche Old School Power
Hell yes. You guys finally got your own sound. This is good.
It's better than I excepted
I love it !! See you guys soon !!
Yessssss! Love it! Awesome recording and Todd is ripping it up! Looking forward to seeing M. Rockenfield again!
I have been a fan of Queensryche since they released their first LP. I am still a fan. Looking forward to the new album. Glad to see them moving forward and making new music again!
This is so good, so amazing to see Queesnryche getting better and better with each album
This song is not better than any song on the self-titled album. I actually think they are going backwards.
@@sixpenceguy E-x-a-c-t-l-y! The S/T was kind of a positive surprise. Scott is a huge loss too, the sound of the drums is very bad on this album.
No DeGarmo no Ryche. When he left it ripped the heart right out of that band.
I bet lots of you would be all over this song if it was Geoff singing it. Go away trolls.
Bingo. Remember how many of those Tate-cultists creamed themselves over "Re-Inventing the Mission" or that Three Tremors Mk II song (I think it was called "Taking on the World" or something like that)?

Damn, this is excellent but that is what we have all come to expect since the band was reborn in 2012!
The bass sounds incredibly huge and full...very active too.
When Queensryche went through all the mess a while back, sure...I was on the fence with the new sound alike singer but hey, I'm good. At least they are still out there soldiering on. Sure, DeGarmo and others aren't here any longer but you know what, it's still good music. In a world filled with shit like 6-9 or whatever he calls himself, we need all the metal we can get.
Rock n roll rules!
He calls himself 6ix 9ine, it's really fucking stupid.
I saw Queensryche open for OZZY in Portland Maine in 1986. Awesome time.
Fantastic see you in Dallas!!
WOW, this kicks ass. Good job guys, Queensryche is the best.
Yes!!!
Blown away..best song of the year
Awesomeness cant wait for the new album and see you guys again March 2019 \m/
The few the proud ! THE TRUE MUSIC LOVERS!!!!
Unreal! My favorite band crushes it again......
Awwwwww thank you fellas!!!!!
Nice!!!!!! Keep up the Ryche!!! 👍👍
I'd love to see these guys live!
Do it!
The Verdict is a solid album. Impressed.
Well... didn't expect that. What a surprise. Can't wait now!
I tried really hard not to like Queensryche without Geoff Tate, but I failed. This is seriously bad ass.
Great track! Will buy the album as soon as it is out!
So much better than the last few albums w/ their former singer. Kudos, guys!
I can't get enough of this revitalized band
So... That seems to be Todd on the drums... The guys sings and plays the drums... He's great.And they're metal again.
@giftofgab247 nope just a great rock band hater!!!!
Apparently it is Todd playing. Speaking personally as a drummer, he's done a great job. Altho as a Ryche fan, I'm bummed that it's not Rockenfield playing. And if I'm being truthful, I was hoping to hear Casey on at least some of the songs if Scott wasn't gonna do it.

Damn this sounds excellent! It's so cool to be looking forward to new Queensryche music again!
Wait, that's not Geoff Tate??? Holy shit!
Amazing!
Todd isn't Tate but he doesn't need to be. He's got his own voice and they're still cranking out good tunes with him.
They're just getting better and better again.cant wait for new album.proper metal !
Excellent guys👍
Woooooooooooow!!!!!!
TODD LA TORRE on vocals and Drums!!!
Hola
I can't get over how amazing this song is keep on rocking on queensryche!!!!
Been a fan since 206 label. .. if anybody knows what that is..... new music sounds great

Exactly very sad I'm digging the so sweet what a hard rocking song!!!
Todd is great he played the drums for the album if you didn’t know
From the very first Moment....Queensryche still rocks!
Is difficult for the fans not to miss Geoff, but Tob did an amazing job and Queensryche sounds fresh but classic at the same time. Awesome album
After the last 5=6 pretty crappy albums with Geoff, I don't miss him at all!
Ryche is in the game again!
Todd sounds more like Geoff than Geoff does anymore. Kind of sad.
Geoff sounds just fine. ua-cam.com/video/rcwA0rqw6d4/v-deo.html
Absolutely he sounds good. He doesn't sound like he did in QR. Mickey Thomas still sounds good, but doesn't sound like Mickey Thomas. Some voices just change that way.
@@sixpenceguy That's B.S. I just saw Geoff in concert and he sounds as great as ever. No Geoff. No Queensryche.

Best Best Best!
Sounds good!
What a great surprise! This sounds amazing!

ojala visiten mi pais, colombia, grande QUEENSRYCHE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Retomando los 80s

Sounds great... I really like this song! Has an yesteryear Queensryche sound. ❤🤘😎🤘
yeah¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡ todd sound great

Drop the Mic...well done gentlemen
I had some small, not fears, but uncertainties about this new album. They have just been laid to rest with this new single. i'm so excited for this album
I feel like you can hear Todd has a lot more influence on this song than the last album. You can really hear the Crimson Glory influence more. I don't mind it, just saying the melding with the Queensryche base is very interesting and it actually gives me a throwback to being a teenager type feel again. Weird, but I like it.
I was noticing that he sounded like Midnight more than a few times here.
Queensryche of past !! Good!!👊👊👊
