1/5 ·
Time Signature
Sign of the times...

Genre: grunge/alt. rock/metal

After the brilliant hardrockers "Operation: Mindcrime" and "Empire" and the different, but almost as brilliant "The Promised Land", Queensrÿche decide to change their style again on "Hear in the Now Frontier", and - well, this album just does not work at all for me.

This is Queensrÿche attempting to play 90s alt rock, something which a lot of other bands did much better back then. Well nigh the most boring Queensrÿche album I have ever heard, and I found it kind of sad that a band like Queensrÿche actually tried to follow the mainstream at the time.

But nice try, of course, and there are a couple of decent songs on this album, nonetheless, like 'The Sign of the Times', 'Hit the Black' and 'sp00l'.
