Queensrÿche Empire (1990) FLAC LOSSLESS 24bit-96kHz PBTHAL Vinyl Rip allmusic.com... After the breakthrough success and worldwide respect that Queensrÿche gained from their conceptual masterpiece Operation: Mindcrime, it was a fair assumption that they couldn't possibly outdo or perhaps even match themselves. Empire, released just two years after that watermark, reveals that Queensrÿche reinvented themselves (though certainly not for the last time). While many fans were clamoring for a conceptual sequel, the band offers a song-oriented approach that is more art rock and less metal (though Empire does rock hard in places). Far removed from the fantasy and techno-paranoiac themes of Operation: Mindcrime, the lyrics tackle social and physical handicaps ("Best I Can") and issues such as poverty and regret ("Della Brown"). Geoff Tate, Chris DeGarmo, and company focused much less on the darker side of love so prevalent in their earlier sound, and looked at romance head on with "Another Rainy Night" and "Hand on Heart." While Queensrÿche lost some die-hard metal fans with Empire, the mature sound and tight production of Peter Collins (Rush) saw the band break into the mainstream and hit number nine on the Billboard singles chart with the Pink Floyd-inspired power ballad "Silent Lucidity," which has remained one of the band's set standbys into the 21st century. foobar2000 1.4.3 / Dynamic Range Meter 1.1.1 log date: 2023-05-13 14:26:03 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Analyzed: Queensrÿche / Empire -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- DR Peak RMS Duration Track -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- DR12 -1.26 dB -15.62 dB 5:33 01-Best I Can DR13 -0.70 dB -15.45 dB 5:44 02-The Thin Line DR11 -0.70 dB -13.69 dB 5:27 03-Jet City Woman DR12 -0.70 dB -15.47 dB 7:05 04-Della Brown DR11 -0.70 dB -13.75 dB 4:29 05-Another Rainy Night (Without You) DR11 -2.09 dB -14.48 dB 5:26 06-Empire DR12 -0.90 dB -14.69 dB 4:52 07-Resistance DR12 -0.70 dB -16.11 dB 5:49 08-Silent Lucidity DR13 -0.70 dB -14.41 dB 5:34 09-Hand On Heart DR12 -0.70 dB -14.46 dB 5:55 10-One And Only DR12 -0.70 dB -15.67 dB 7:43 11-Anybody Listening? -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Number of tracks: 11 Official DR value: DR12 Samplerate: 96000 Hz Channels: 2 Bits per sample: 24 Bitrate: 3009 kbps Codec: FLAC ================================================================================ Support the artists... buy it if you like it!
