‘Queensrÿche’ is the thirteenth full-length studio album by American heavy metal band Queensrÿche, the first to feature singer Todd La Torre. It was originally released in 2013 by Century Media Records, during a curious time when there were two different versions of the band, the other led by former singer Geoff Tate, who would give up his rights to the name in an amicable settlement in 2014.

Marking a fresh start for the band, ‘Queensrÿche’ captures a renewed sense of purpose and clarity after years of internal turmoil and stylistic drift. With La Torre’s soaring vocals evoking the classic era while injecting new vitality, the album recalls the focused energy and melodic sophistication of their mid-to-late ’80s output. Tracks like ‘Where Dreams Go to Die’ or ‘In This Light’ showcase tight musicianship, thoughtful songwriting, while bangers like ‘Fallout’ help signal a return to the progressive metal textures that originally defined their sound, making this album a confident rebirth rather than a mere continuation.
