Finally, on the same wavelength…👍👍👍👍
Album of the year for me, Lost In Sorrow may be my favorite, it sounds the most classic, straight out of Empire, and there’s something so catchy to it
Thanks Pete, thanks to your review I checked this album (I was a Queensryche-fan in the time of Rage For Order…wayyy back in the early days..). This is an amazing album 👍🏼
One to check out…
What a great album from the band. Certainly in my top5 this year.
Absolutely right, Pete, great Album !
Really enjoyed the album. The sound reminds me a lot of Empire era, and the quality of the output is good. Really enjoyed the songs Behind The Walls and Hold On. In my opinion it is their strongest record since Promised Land.
Fine Album. For my taste the drums are a bit loud in the overall mix. But man…. This Album really rocks!
I'm as big a fan of Tate as any other person who grew up listening to Queensryche, but let's face it, technically, Todd is the better singer between the two today. What I like most about this album is that Todd is starting to throw in new elements like subtle vocal distortion, and it helps draw a distinction between him and Tate. They very pleasantly surprised me with this album. I've heard they're going to be focusing a lot more on Todd-era songs on their next tour. They just might be a good idea.
Well I really enjoy watching your new release videos.
I love this album best for a long time
Mann, waiting for Under the Midnight Sun review!!
New staratovarius album
Zeuss also produced The Verdict. And i think he produced Condition Human too.
Thanks Pete, definitely gonna have to check ✔️ this out! ✌🏼🤘🏼
Love it! This will really be appreciated by the old school long time fans. Reminds me of the Rage/Mindcrime era
Excellent album and their Rebel Yell version is pure explosion
Great review Pete. Was wondering if it was logistically possible to reassemble the crew you had for The Cult album rankings to review their new album. (Under the Midnight Sun) Gratitude.
I really love this album
Love this record, this will be in my top 3 and will be a contender for best of the year for me as well.
Absolutely the best QR album since Operation: Mindcrime! I'm still sad that DeGarmo will not come back, but honestly – they don't need him anymore! Amazing music.
"Produced by Zeus. I am not familiar with Zeus." Why did this quote from Pete make me laugh?
No DeGarmo, No Tate……
I like it! Has a Pagan's Mind vibe, which is a big plus in my book.
I just hate them calling this Queensryche.
Hope this line-up sticks together.
Possibly best since Empire brilliant album
I just heard this album yesterday, excellent stuff. I'll be spinning this a few more times for sure! I prefer Todd in Queensryche over Jeff. 😯They were awesome live opening up for Priest.
For me the best TLT ere Rÿche release. All TLT era releases are awesome but DNA is the most cohesive, best sounding of the 4. Chris ‘Zeuss’ Harris has produced the last 3 Rÿche albums along with TLT’s RITS🤘🏻
Billy idol got famous for his song yet every original on this was better.
Good review of a great album. Not an instant hit but really starts to sink in after a couple of spins. By the way Pete, I think you are familiar with Zeuss' earlier works since he already engineered, mixed, mastered and produced the two albums before this. He also mixed and mastered Todd's solo album.
That cover of Rebel Yell is just awful
Just finished my first listen and it's already my favorite of the LaTorre era.
Heard a track or two. My thoughts? How does Bruce Dickinson have time to front 2 bands? LMOA! Also, why did they let that asshole Mike Stone back into the band? Ugh!
This album clicked with me immediately. Outstanding!
I agree with you on how good Condition Human and The Verdict are. I haven’t picked this up, but I just ordered this based on your review. 👍
I like Queensryche but, was never a fanatic. I think that's why to me the personnel changes have been seamless and the new album especially (Nocturnal Lights) is a really good album.
Love this album – there is not one filler (barring Rebel Yell lol) on here. Super infectious hooks and grooves. It's so good and everyone in the band sounds amazing. Thank you Queensryche for continuing to create music that makes you think and bang your head – all in one! Love it!
Great Album&Review!thanks!😎🤘
Great review Pete. Pleased to hear you're 'digging' the new QR album 😉. And me likewise. I got it on the day of release and have been giving it a few spins. And it is indeed very good, I think it stands up very well to the other three Todd QR albums. I saw the band live in London on The Verdict Tour and that was a fantastic night, it was great to see the band performing with such high energy on tour. 9/10 for me 👍
