Do you like Queensryche? No, not enough to get their logo tattooed on you when you turned 18 back in 1990 – we mean way more than that. Either the band is vastly overestimating the net worth of their fan base, or a lot of metal fans that loved the band 30 years ago have […]

A few days ago, Queensryche’s Michael Wilton mentioned in an interview that the battle over who got to use the name “Queensryche” had reached an “amicable settlement.” In one corner, we had original vocalist Geoff Tate, who’d left the band and formed his own version of Queensryche. In the other, we had three original members […]

So, do you like Queensryche? Not so fast, which one? The one featuring original members Michael Wilton, Eddie Jackson and Scott Rockenfeld, or the other one, featuring vocalist Geoff Tate? Both of them released albums under the name Queensryche last year, which may have caused some confusion. There was definitely plenty of resentment between the […]

Metal Insider’s Top 5 is a column where we count down the top five of…well basically anything. Yup, it’s that time of year again. With Thanksgiving just around the corner, we’re continuing our tradition of counting down the top five events and occasions we’re thankful occurred this year. 2013 was a year jam packed with lows and […]

We’ll be reviewing this week’s top selling metal releases in a bit. However, this week’s charts immediately proved one thing: which version of Queensryche fans prefer. The self-titled album from Queensryche (featuring Michael Wilton, Eddie Jackson, Scott Rockenfield, Parker Lundgren and new singer Todd La Torre) debuted on the charts at #23, selling just under […]

You’ve already heard three new songs from Queensryche (the one without Geoff Tate). Now hear the whole album! Queensryche and Century Media Records has posted a stream of the band’s self-titled album a whole week before its official release. We’re still giving it a deeper listen ourselves, but two things stand out right away (as […]

With their new, self-titled album coming out next week (25), Queensrÿche (the Todd La Torre version) will inevitably have people comparing their new album to the other Queensrÿche album that came out this year, Frequency Unknown, which was vocalist Geoff Tate’s version of the band. In a recent interview with Ria Fend of London Rocks, La Torre differentiated between […]

Queensryche (the one without Geoff Tate) has previously premiered the songs “Redemption” and “Where Dreams Go To Die” off of their upcoming self-titled album, due out on June 25 via new label home Century Media Records. And while two factions of the band had a very public fallout last in the courts last year when […]

Like a kid in the middle of a bitter divorce, it’s up to a court to decide who gets to keep the Queensryche name: vocalist Geoff Tate’s incarnation or the version with Scott Rockenfield, Eddie Jackson and Michael Wilton. And while the version with Todd La Torre was first to get a song out with “Redemption,” […]

Last month, Queensryche (the version featuring Michael Wilton, Eddie Jackson, and Scott Rockenfield) offered a 90 second teaser of a new song called “Redemption.” And last night, the group premiered the song in its entirety on Sirius XM. It didn’t take long, though, for Queensryche’s new label Century Media to post the song online. So […]
