One thing Tate sang manly. Meaning that where a lot of rock singers sang in a high range but sounded almost like a female. But Tate could hit some extremely high parts but still sounded like a man. One of the best vocalists of all time.

[@harleyrider76]

Because he's a baritone vocalist who could hit very high tenor-sounding notes. Not many rock vocalists could do what he did and use their voice like he did.

[@Clay-jj2xy]

I have to say, It's always great when a band has something to say...and when their lead singer can delivery that message in a way that connects with the audience. Queensryche must be one of the most under appreciated GREAT bands of all time. In a day and age of dance numbers, lip synching entire shows and dozens of backing track vocals when they do decide to sing, a band like Queensryche shows you the beauty and the majesty of doing something pure, simple and powerful.

[@dreadalex]

True but hate to say there aren't bands that are underappreciated there are people with more advanced music taste than others. Ok compared perhaps to Gun's n Roses they weren't that mainstream successful but to metal audiences Queensryche are one of the true greats ever.

[@brandonjohnson191]

IDK, they were all over the radio and Mtv during the Empire cycle.

[@joemusicman64]

They flew under my radar but I was a sleeper. Now I'm obsessed with them. I can't believe what DeGarmo/Tate did in such a short time. DeGarmo was just spilling over with material when the first albums came out. Now he's flying jets and married to the same woman all his life. I think he made the right choice. Family first.

[@ozgard]

They were big in their time. Jet City Woman was a monster hit like Silent Lucidity. They just ran their course like most bands do.

[@Fektthis]

They were hitting their stride at a bad time. They were getting great exposure and airplay right before Grunge killed off metal for a while. Sadly, the best metal band from Seattle was handicapped by the Seattle Grunge scene that shifted the tastes of many listeners and stations. DeGarmo leaving was the nail in the coffin.

Clearly the best band of the era with extraordinary musicians, experts in their own field. And that voice, there is no match. Between Steve Perry (Journey) and Geoff Tate, their simply were no other singers, Eddie Jackson (Bass), Chris Degarmo (lead guitars) and of course, Scott Rockenfeld (drums) and Michael Wilton (Guitars), that band was supreme with incredible songs. Whatever happened, they had their time when they were #1.

Geoff Tate was (and still is) a phenomenal singer!!! There aren't many that can sing they way he can. I've read about what has happened with the band over the last several years, and it's disheartening. To let petty BS destroy something that was so great is very sad. I will not listen to anything with their new singer, because Geoff Tate made Queensryche what it was, and he is the true voice of the band.

Anyone says Scott Rockenfield isn’t great ?? They better have their ears examined a bit.. he’s amazing!!along with the rest of the guys!

[@travisdelee8647]

This music was just so good. They people who did the EQ on this album knew what they were actually doing. It's so damn crisp, but has the full mids and bottom end all the way through.

[@cosplayboundlive]

Nothing sounded this good in the early 90s as far as production. James Barton was/is a master engineer.

[@josh2112]

Produced by Peter Collins, who did a bunch of Rush albums too!

[@sarahhurst140]

His voice, and OMG his lyrics! So intelligent. So heartful. Awesomeness is what it all is! Rock on friends & peace out!

[@leagueofshadows]

Iconic album from start to finish. No one from Seattle even came remotely close!

[@michaelnelson3877]

Queensryche is from Seattle!

[@caraelliott2637]

Love the verse that says “teardrops taste like rain drops without the pain “ 😿

[@jeremycarpenter5550]

Poetic line .

[@ninja6567]

Saw Geoff live last Friday night in Boise for the 30th anniversary of Empire. Still sounds EXACTLY the same after 30 years!! And I saw him 30 years ago in Boise!!!

[@nathansmith6365]

Eddie Vedder wishes he could sing like this...

[@daveko7]

This song is perfection from beginning to end!

[@laurasupko]

YES definitely

[@g0ezle0nard96]

This band literally dwarfs most of the musical “acts” of today.

[@yunqisun4017]

This is what a perfect song sounds

[@richnorcal]

I never get tired of that voice...rich and powerful...

[@MrCollinGabriel]

Don't slam the door on your way out Don't leave without saying goodbye Another long distance night alone You leave me wanting, always leave me wanting more Last word today, coming home to stay? Wouldn't that be nice, for awhile? But now my take-out food is growing cold And the candle's burned a hole in the floor And I'm still waiting for the ring of the phone I'm all alone And it's another rainy night, without you Guess I'll leave the light on for you It's just another rainy night without you Listen, there's a foghorn blowing from the coast tonight Remember making love in the rain? Strange how laughter looks like crying with no sound Raindrops taste like tears, without the pain I'm not much without you, can't leave if I wanted to Maybe that's why you stay around But tonight I'll sit here tending the fire And pace the floor one hundred times in an hour And check the voice-mail for a message you've called I'm all alone It's just another rainy night, without you Waiting by the phone alone It's just another rainy night, without you Guess I'll leave a light on for you I know I've said it before Hate the sound of the closing door And your footsteps walking away But now my take-out food is growing cold, And the candle's burned a hole in the floor And I'm still waiting for the ring of the phone I'm all alone It's just another rainy night, without you Waiting by the phone alone And it's another rainy night, without you Guess I'll leave a light on for you It's just another rainy night, it's just another rainy night, It's just another rainy night without you

[@laurasupko]

Thank you

[@rickc.4294]

Were you in the USMC dude?

[@C.M.SuttonDodson]

Raindrops taste like tears, without the pain.

[@C.M.SuttonDodson]

Not much without you, couldn't leave if I wanted to...

[@davidhull7783]

That one thing Queensryche did wrong back in the day, was to fire Jeoff and his wife ! Jealousy and not enough attention as another band member, cost them dearly!

[@r.b.ratieta6111]

I've heard people say that Queensryche would have made millions more had they emerged ten years earlier. But to be honest, I'm glad they came out when they did. It did two things: 1. It made/kept their music more authentic. They wrote more from the heart without the temptation to write garbage to make a quick buck. 2. It also made their fanbase more authentic as well. You don't hear many people hating on Queensryche simply because they haven't heard of them, and those who do generally enjoy what they hear. Frankly, in my opinion, I like it that way. Seems more genuine to me.

[@mikewasoski1050]

I got to meet all the original members of Queensryche during a record release party for Promised Land at Bad Animal studio's in Seattle. They all seemed pretty down to earth and took the time to chat with us and didn't act like a bunch of rock stars. It's unfortunate whats happened between these guy's the past few years.

[@sabinaneofotistos1361]

What a song, what an album!!!! I loved it from day one!!!!!!

[@cynthiagarcia7310]

Really he was good

[@1ZZ1_1ZZ1]

From '82 through '90 this was one of the greatest bands in metal, but after '90 the band was never the same. The personality conflict that haunted their post '90 releases would eventually cost them their record label. After Tate and Degarmo left all hope was lost. RIP Queensryche. One of the greatest bands of the 80's.

[@justinstuart2202]

Best original queensryche lineup. Geoff is one of the best rock singers of all time. Rockenfields drum sound on this record is epic!! A fantastic group of master musicians the thinking man’s metal group. Queensryche forever!!

[@BoxerDogs]

I listened to Queensryche a lot in my last year in college. Virginia Tech, 1998. Brings back a lot of cool memories.

[@mariahmcadams2769]

He has the sexiest voice!!

[@tgrlilly]

Sexy man and sexy voice

[@darliskawhitaker1979]

@@tgrlilly I Agree 😀😁 💖.

[@carmenlinnea8751]

Yes! 100% 🤍🎼🤘🏼

[@Bradgilliswhammyman]

Beginning of this song is amazing. What a great intro.

[@matthewlock8740]

No one surpasses so surprisingly as queensrryche ever mjl

[@nancyvaughn354]

Saw them in concert. Best concert I've been to. They were so tight. Got to go back stage. Awesome. Very underrated band. What a story!

[@betsywaldrop]

I've been in love with Queensryche for over 25 years since I first heard them. They are just as amazing today as they were then. Geoff Tate has THE BEST voice in metal, of any "era" or decade, hands down.

[@ibanpetinichi6151]

amen!

[@jamesnash489]

Geoff Tate to me is the voice of Queensrÿche always will be. this new singer they have thinks he's better, vocally he is like comparing apples to oranges, in my opinion the new Queensrÿche music doesn't have the heart or passion that the old band did

[@krystedeleon7112]

Geoff was awesome the whole band no one was like them there music was deep

[@gabbi_anoni]

Not going to lie, Im a total fan girl, I admit it. Every chance I get on the east coast to see Geoff I do!😂

[@angelabarrera24]

He is one fine man! And his voice! 😍

[@2ql]

The best male vocal of all time💪🤩

[@crystalpeek7656]

Chris DeGarmo: The most underrated songwriter & lead guitarist in rock history!!!!Chris DeGarmo is Awesome!!!!

[@shallmars]

CRYSTAL PEEK he has a great style all to himself. Very unique.

[@WriterGirl2134]

SO SO SO Amazing!! Queensryche is one of the greatest bands of all time. No matter what there disputes are, the music and messages were filled with passion and talent.

[@cocarr1]

"Strange how laughter looks like crying with no sound Raindrops taste like tears Without the pain" great writing

[@Nightowl358]

Love this band. They sound amazing live.

[@RobPresq1717]

So many memories. I blasted Queensryche non-stop on my cassette tape in my 77 Camaro. I was in my early 20's, I bartended at night, hooked up with chicks whenever possible, lived at home, barely had a concern in the world. Best time of my life! Then adulthood took over and RIP fun times. But I'll always remember great music like this and recall back to that time when I felt so free and I had my whole future ahead of me and I didn't give a s*it about anything. Unfortunately, I never felt freedom and fun times like that ever again. If you're young .... live life like you want and don't hold back because one day it'll be too late to ever get those days back again.

[@bmckenzie313]

But hearing this wants a reunion with them people cause when this came out I had a 75 Torino steep was worth more than the car!

[@George-gc9bk]

I was25 when this hit, a true badass!

[@lisalisa2132]

He can still bring the house down. I saw him a few years ago and I was blown away at how he can still hit every note and still brings the power to his songs. Amazing talent!

[@oih82w84]

I am so glad that Hair Nation plays Queensryche with great regularity. Incredibly awesome band!

[@kikinit1349]

I could (and have) listen to this band all day long. Love their sound!!
