December 26, 2011

THE ALBUM OF THE DAY
QUEENSRYCHE...Dedicated To Chaos (2011)
(CD, vinyl, Allmusic review)

A stellar effort from Queensryche as it seems like Geoff Tate's voice is stronger than ever. The single "Get Started" ROCKS!! However, this is a bit of a departure for the band. If you are expecting hard rock song adter another you'll be somewhat disappointed. Looking for a record from a classic band that is experimenting and spreading their wings here's a good one for you
