Condition Human (CD)
Queensryche went back to their roots for their 14th album Condition Human. The effort marks the second album with frontman Todd LaTorre, who replaced original singer Geoff Tate in 2012 following a drawn out and contentious split.
The effort harkens back to earlier Queensryche albums with its heavy progressive sounds chock full of time signature shifts, blazing guitar work, digital sound effects and dialogue sprinkled throughout, as well as a focus on social commentary in the lyrics.
Fans will immediately recognize the band's signature sound, especially on the effort's opening track "Arrow of Time," with speedy guitar harmonies, which are prominently featured all over the album. Guitarist Michael Wilton told us that for this album the band really focused on what inspired them to create what is widely considered their best work. "We really accentuated and borrowed some high energy from the past and really achieved it in this album." He added, "Having more time gave a little more depth to the songs, a little more of a progressive element and some say a little bit heavier, but more of an eclectic approach as well. So there is a lot of instrumentation, a lot of layers, lots of guitars, drums and everything and the vocals are encompassing with what Queensryche is all about."
