1. Queensryche
2. Operation Mindcrime
3. I Don't Believe in Love.

Mindcrime is one of the greatest Rock albums ever in my opinion. It ranks with Tommy and Kilroy Was Here as far as rock operas go.
AWESOME AWESOME!
The guitar work is fantastic and the vocals are well, no one sings quite like Geoff Tate.
And the songs kick your teeth in.
GREAT album all the way around!

I just recently got his DVD "Live in Austin" from the Austin City Limits TV show. I love instrumentals, but it's the only one good enough to make my favorites list. Great tune and the tone he gets out of his guitar is out of this world.

That album is in my top 10, no doubt. Do you have the "Operation: LIVEcrime" DVD? Great show...I just don't like the way it was recorded.

Tragchk ... you have a great voice. I went to your website and heard the clip on the home page and I was very impressed. I only wish you guys played around Florida as I'd go see you in a heartbeat.

By the way, do you know that a lot of the graphics on your site don't load? From looking at the code, it looks like your web developer has referenced his/her hard drive instead of uploading the pictures to the web server and referencing them correctly. Just thought I'd tell you ...

I got it the first day it came out. I wore out the VHS of it I had from back in the day.

I was skeptical at first...but I bought it because it's Queensryche...and I actually like it better than anything since Empire. To much experimentation on the albums between Empire and Mindcrime II.
I wish that Chris DeGarmo was still in the band, his writting really helped make all the earlier Queensrych albums.

I really like "Promised Land" but I know what you mean about "Hear in the Now Frontier" and "Q2K". I thought "Tribe" was a step in the right direction.

I've also picked up the remasters and the first three albums, including the EP, are a huge improvement in sound.
