{"product_id":"queensryche-rage-for-order","title":"Queensrÿche - Rage for Order","description":"\u003cp\u003eRage for Order is the record where Queensrÿche stopped playing it safe, a 1986 leap into cold, futuristic metal that pointed straight toward their masterpiece.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eComing two years after The Warning, the Seattle-area band's second studio album pushed into stranger territory. Keyboards moved to the foreground, the twin guitars of Chris DeGarmo and Michael Wilton grew more intricate, and Geoff Tate's operatic voice turned toward themes of technology and control. The glossy image of the era may have dated, but the songs pointed directly toward Operation: Mindcrime two years later.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNeil Kernon produced, and despite all the digital themes the album was recorded and mixed in analog, which gives its chilly sheen real weight. Walk in the Shadows opens with a classic metal gallop, I Dream in Infrared shows off Tate's soaring range, and Screaming in Digital imagines a machine coming to life over pulsing, mechanical rhythms. The band's cover of Dalbello's Gonna Get Close to You is the strangest and most hypnotic moment, a slinky, sinister crawl that became one of the album's singles.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCerebral and well ahead of its time, it remains a favourite among fans who like their metal with a brain. It still sounds like the future, as imagined from 1986.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Alliance Entertainment","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57165874004273,"sku":"600574218926","price":29.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0704\/2026\/7313\/files\/Queensryche-Rage_for_Order.jpg?v=1793188400","url":"https:\/\/vinyl.com\/products\/queensryche-rage-for-order","provider":"Vinyl.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
