If you’ve read the court filings and paid attention to the media circus surrounding the extremely public split of Geoff Tate and the other members of Queensryche, you know that the remaining members of the band said that they’d wanted to make music reminiscent of the band’s glory days, namely, from the beginning of the band through 1990’s Empire. Now that Tate is no longer in the band, they’re free to do that, and is this short trailer is any indication, it sounds like somewhat of a return to form. The minute of material definitely sounds heavier than anything the band’s released in the past 20 years, and former Crimson Glory vocalist Todd La Torre isn’t afraid of hitting high notes either. No label has been named yet, but consider our interest piqued.
