(Former?) Queensryche drummer Scott Rockenfield has, shall we say, been a bit of a drama queen these last couple years. In 2021 he announced his own version of Queensryche seemingly separate from the current version. His supposedly included Michael Wilton and Eddie Jackson, but not singer Todd LaTorre. Scott released a 2014 demo called “Days O’ Deth” as his only musical output so far, which ironically included LaTorre on vocals. Scott’s dislike for LaTorre has been quite public in his social media. The legit Queensryche have largely ignored Scott’s statements.
Today Rockenfield is announcing something in 2023 called “SuperHuman” with someone called Damien Krane. The artwork recycles the album cover for the 2013 self-titled Queensryche CD.
Who knows what the hell is actually going on, but the possibility of two Queensryches has once again reared its ugly head. Stay tuned in 2023 for more drama.

Wasn’t there a big lawsuit to settle all this? Or am I thinking of something else?

They had one with Tate 10 years ago. I believe they have one with Scott right now.

Wow. This is almost as good as CCR suing John Fogerty for sounding too much like John Fogerty.

I know so little about Queensryche’s music, but I know so much of their drama, lol.
Two versions of the band. So nice that they did it twice.

It could happen twice but I guess we will see how this unfolds. It’s embarrassing.

Queensryche drama? Something to look forward to in 2023.

This is all strange, but the band Queensryche is really good these days. I’ve seen them three times with Todd, most recently last month, opening for Judas Priest, (and once with Tate, on the Promised Land tour). I’m going to see the current band again in March, on their headlining tour for the excellent Digital Noise Alliance album. I’ve bought into the band with Todd and Casey, and really, at this point, I’d just as soon that Scott took his toys and went home.

I definitely prefer the band now to how they were a little over 10 years ago with Geoff. They are on the right track. Hopefully Scott comes to his sense soon.

This band just can’t get a break. Constant drama. Is their new album any good?

I would not know. I’ve heard it’s possibly the best of the four LaTorre albums, but Queensryche didn’t make my new budget constraints so I’ll have to catch it down the road.

Fair enough. Haven’t bought it either so I completely understand! The previous albums were good but I can’t say I go back to them much.

They seldom pass the “I remember how this song goes!” test. A lot of bands that are not in my budget fall into the category of “Can’t Remember How the Songs on the Last Album Go”.

I think that’s a good guage to use and definitely applicable in this case. And it’s not like you can’t buy it later if the mood strikes.

Either way there’s no rush! I don’t even have a complete Queensryche collection. I am missing Art of Live, and of course Frequency Unknown.

I don’t have F.U. but I do have Art Of Live. Not sure if I’ve ever actually listened to it though! Bought it for £1

I have soooo many I’ve never listened to. Included several expensive box sets. I have 2 sealed Rush sets, a sealed Metallica, and a sealed Queen. I may open them all on Friday.
