I'm keeping the engine running in Ed's driveway, as he convinces his Mom he won't be home too late, and blasting Whitesnake's Whitesnake--because nothing gets you faster to peak mullet on a Friday night like Crying In the Rain.

Listening to spotify playlist 'Independent Ladies - Ladies, it's time to turn your sass level up to 100!' Almost like they created a playlist just for me. :o :D

Now hair metal for Operation Mindcrime is really unfair and at best misleading.  :mad:

How about "The one album from the hair metal era" then?  At the time they were lumped in with the hair metal crowd even though they did derive many of their musical ideas from prog-rock rather than glam.

In any event the point is that Queensrÿche deserves to be remembered for Operation Mindcrime, not Silent Lucidity.

Follow-up:

Geoff Tate's thoughts on it:

Quote"What happened was that the marketing mentality came into the business. They started breaking everything down and putting music in boxes. At that point, writers began placing us in the same box as Mötley Crüe. It wasn't about the music — it was a selling technique.

"To be compared to Mötley Crüe... I took it as kind of an insult, frankly."

Currently listening to The White Stripes
It is far better for the truth to tear my flesh to pieces, then for my soul to wander through darkness in eternal damnation.

Jet: So what kind of woman is she? What's Julia like?
Faye: Ordinary. The kind of beautiful, dangerous ordinary that you just can't leave alone.
Jet: I see.
Faye: Like an angel from the underworld. Or a devil from Paradise.

The Beatles - Sergeant Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band

When I was in high school my dad got the cassette version of this.  I guess it wasn't as good as he remembered, because he shelved it pretty quickly.  I "Borrowed" it quite soon after that and listened to it extensively.  (This was in the midst of the hair metal era; when Mötley Crüe was the prestige band, and my friends were listening to bands like Poison and Warrant.)  The only Beatles I had heard before that were their "I Wanna Hold Your Hand," "She Loves You, Yeah, Yeah, Yeah," "Yesterday" and "Yellow Submarine."  This was so different, and so much better that I spent what little money I had from working at McDonald's getting all their later records.

I can't be as excited about music as I could when I was 16 anymore; but I still love this album and think it's one of the best ever made. 
In Italy, for thirty years under the Borgias, they had warfare, terror, murder and bloodshed, but they produced Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci and the Renaissance. In Switzerland, they had brotherly love, they had five hundred years of democracy and peace—and what did that produce? The cuckoo clock
