Forthcoming release:

Queensryche will release its new album, "Condition Human", on October 2 via Century Media Records.

Line-up: Michael Wilton (guitars, keyboards), Eddie Jackson (bass), Scott Rockenfield (drums), Todd La Torre (vocals) and Parker Lundgren (guitars). In a recent interview with ‘Hard Time Radio’ in Dallas, Texas, Todd La Torre stated about the band's follow-up to 2013's "Queensryche": "Honestly, I know it sounds typical or cliche to say, but I really feel that there's material on this record that spans from the first record that the band did up to “Promised Land” (1994). There's a lot of diversity, but there's a complexity to these songs. It's a different animal to the last record”.
