#OnThisDay in 1988, Queensryche released their 3rd album "Operation:Mindcrime" featuring singles I Don't Believe in Love and Eyes of a Stranger. Regarded as one of the most influential progressive metal albums of all time, it peaked at #50 in the US where it's certified platinum
38 years have passed since this true treasure of music was released. It seems incredible that after so many years this album still sounds as fresh as the first day and the lyrics seem like a prophecy about the current state of the world. This isnโt just music, this is pure MAGIC.
