The re-recorded version of Hula is kinda ass but I get what you're saying.

yeah Rated R is wonderful. I love it. Love how it sounds. Love all the guests too.

I love Auto-Pilot. It reminds me of when Nick and Mark would perform it as a duo around that time, maybe a little later.

Surprised by the pushback in here.

Auto Pilot = Very good

Tension Head & Quick and to the Pointless = Very bad

Tension Head fucking rules, man. You crazy.

Unhinged screaming Nick is my least favourite version of Nick.

Hang on, I forgot, this is my least favourite version of Nick.

Separating the art from the artist is a tough one. There's no right answer.

You're right, enjoying Nick Oliveri screaming rather than singing is very tough and totally normal behaviour.

You brought his history of domestic violence into a discussion about the merits of his singing, you absolute flog. Honestly, give yourself an uppercut.

Auto Pilot is so fucking good...

"Will we arrive in the middle of nowhere
Don't act like you know, I been here so many times
I never seen you before
But now that I have, I don't want to see you no more"

Perfect.

Congrats Ello Sailor, you've reminded me why I left RM back in 2016.

Soma's a good dude. He just plays a little rough.

i kinda agree with your take on LTP. Never been a fan and i was somehow disappointed back then. Maybe because Nick left? dont know. But it grew with time and there are a few songs there that feel like classics now

My ranking goes

Rated R
Like Clockwork
ST
Era Vulgaris
SFTD
LTP
ITNR
Villains.

I need more time with the new one tough.

Like Clockwork
Era Vulgaris
SFTD
In Times New Roman
Villains
Rated R
S/T
Lullabies to Paralyze

S/T (the only great Queens album) ranked questionably low.

Tjis prompted me to give ST a listen - the only Queens album I hadn't listened to at all
