they brought revolution to rock welcome
to watchmojo.com and today we’re
counting down our picks for the top 10
queens reich’s on this list we’ll be
focusing on the period before the group
recently disbanded and reformed into two
separate bands
we’ve chosen our entries based on a
combination of the artists fan favorites
and their most commercially successful
songs but that said get ready for some
seriously high pitched vocals number 10
walk in the shadows
only song on our list from Queens
Reich’s 2nd album
rage for order walk in the shadow’
sticks in our minds as a signature song
that often concludes the band’s live
shows
with an uplifting beat a kick-ass solo
and some piercing vocals from lead
singer Jeff tape
it will make you want to chat the chorus
over and over
number nine sweet sister married
Queens rugs success skyrocketed with the
release of the highly regarded record
operation mindcrime
a progressive metal opera tells the
story of a junkie recruited into a
revolutionary underground organization
sweet sister Mary begins with a pretty
dark narration kill her that’s all you
have to do she’ll marry she’s a risk
and get the priest as well
and what follows is an epic duet between
a murderer and a prostitute who’s
pretending to be a nun
as the longest song on the album this is
one killer ballad with a gripping story
number eight another rainy night without
you
this is the first of several tracks on
our list from what’s considered by many
to be Queen’s Reich’s
greatest album empires
you
with heavy riffs constantly shifting in
speed and reflective lyrics that scream
of loneliness and determination
another rainy night is the perfect song
to listen to when you just want to vent
and rock out
number seven best I can
this is certainly one hell of an
introduction to empire
best I can opens with a cryptic and
haunting narrative that alludes to a
possible murder and is then picked up by
Tate’s powerful vocals
with some excellent bass accompaniment
the five and a half minute number is a
varied and anthemic track that urges you
to never give up and to go out into the
world and give it your all
number six empire
empires title track is rather chaotic
long race
but that’s exactly what Queens Reich was
aiming for
in a series of roaring guitar solos and
lyrics at caution Americans of a drug
and criminal empire
the progressive metal to help the band
reach the Billboard mainstream Rock
charts top 30
written by tape the five and a half
minute rocker also found a home on the
UK Singles Chart
number five operation mindcrime
takes a minute
all throughout operation mindcrime kate
takes on multiple characters to bring
the concept album story to life
in the case of the title cut he plays
the village
– holy shit
as the sinister doctor he’s trying to
brainwash the protagonist and by
extension the listener into joining his
cause
again shaking
with its heavy chords and lyrics filled
with anarchy it’s the definitive song
for violent revolution
right away you base the day
mr. bone
number four silent lucidity or has it
just
the only song on our list to include
acoustic guitar and by far the most
somber silent lucidity is also Empire’s
most successful song
packed with raw emotion that fits
perfectly with Tate’s boys
tract builds and builds adding
instruments as it progresses and
culminating in a truly heart-rending
climax
and as a song inspired by dreams you
couldn’t expect anything else from this
Billboard Hot 100 top-ten hit
signing next
number three I don’t believe in luck
Oh
sir
as the story of operation mindcrime
begins to close were treated to a song
about despair
with some truly incredible guitar solo
set just after the protagonist loses the
woman he loves to suicide and he’s
accused and imprisoned for the crime the
song sees hate cursing love and all the
pain it brings
and add some heavy accompaniment to boot
ain’t heartache a bitch
number two jet city woman
and not always
another successful song off empire jet
city woman is an uplifting and heartfelt
track that pays tribute to the band’s
hometown of Seattle
Jesse
and to their families thousands of miles
away
with take throwing in some powerful
vocals and solos that come out of
nowhere but sure is he’ll make an impact
the heavy and progressive metal track
will long stay grounded in fans minds
before we unveil our number one pick
here are a few honorable mentions
number one eyes of a stranger the
conclusion to operation mindcrime
is also our top pick no queens rock song
captures chaos despair and overall
hopelessness quite as well as this
with the protagonist of the album
incarcerated in a mental asylum
he can no longer recognize himself and
becomes lost in his own memories
Tate’s vocal shine on this piece and
create a bitter atmosphere in which you
feel sorry for a homicidal junkie
ending with a mesh of synthesized voices
that are sure to make you shudder this
fan-favorite is also a live staple
