Top 10 Best Queensryche Albums

The Top Ten

  1. Operation: Mindcrime

    Every second of this album transports me back to 1988. Queensryche consistently produced great music until Hear in the Now Frontier, when Geoff apparently lost his mind and assumed we, the fans, were lacking bad music in our lives. Thanks for the memories!

    I love how Frequency Unknown isn't even on this list.

    A masterpiece in every way.

  2. The Warning

    The Warning is my personal number three, after Operation: Mindcrime and Promised Land. Brilliant power/prog metal that defined the band. Take Hold of the Flame? Roads to Madness? No Sanctuary? It doesn't get much better than that.

    An excellent breakthrough album that set the standard.

    En Force is their best song.

  3. Rage for Order

    This album should be ranked No. 2. It's as strong as Mindcrime! A masterpiece of prog metal.

    Every song is great. It's the most consistently strong Queensryche album.

    The best Queensryche album not named Operation: Mindcrime.

  4. Empire

  5. Promised Land

  6. Queensrÿche EP

    The first Queensryche album I bought. I traded it in for another record a while ago and regret doing so. I love this album. I may buy it back. Maybe not their best album, but I'm going to put a vote in for it anyway. 1980s metal - I love it.

  7. Queensrÿche

    Nice to see Queensryche return with an all-new, better sound!

    Great songs. Definitely deserves a higher position.

  8. Condition Hüman

    After the disappointing album Frequency Unknown and the experimental Dedicated to Chaos, they got a better singer. Todd shined a light on the self-titled album, and now this album is almost like Empire. I can't wait until their next release.

  9. Operation: Mindcrime II

  10. Hear in the Now Frontier

    11. The Newcomers

    The Verdict

    13. The Contenders

  13. Q2K

  14. Tribe

    This album is so underrated!

  15. Dedicated to Chaos

    This is the most experimental Queensryche album to date, feeling closer to Geoff Tate's first solo album than to the band's older material. However, songs like Get Started, At The Edge, Around The World, and Broken prove that this band doesn't need genre boundaries to make good music.

  16. Frequency Unknown

  17. Take Cover

  18. American Soldier
