        _Screaming_in_Digital______________________________Editor's Note_

                Welcome to 1994!  All the rumors are now beginning to
        agree that the new album will be out this year, so we've got
        something to look forward to, at the very least.  I hope you all
        enjoyed the New Year holiday, and wish you the best for the rest
        of the year.
                As you might notice, a couple entries in this issue are
        not credited to people's real names.  This isn't a frequent 
        problem, as nearly 90% of people include their name in subscribe
        requests, but there are a few services - America OnLine, aol.com,
        is one - which often don't include a real name in e-mail headers.
        So, if anybody thinks I might not have their name, or might not
        have it right, please e-mail queensryche-owner@pilot.njin.net and
        I'll check.

        _Neue_Regel_______________________________________News_&_Reviews_  

        New Album?              David <tvos@umcc.umich.edu>
                When is the new album suppose to be out? and is there a 
        name for the new album yet?  My girlfriend is on the edge of her 
        sanity waiting for information and a release date on the album.
        I myself enjoy their music, but I'm a Rush deadhead. :>

        New Album?              Don <blitzer@wybbs.mi.org>
                I haven't been here in a while but I heard a rumor that 
        Queensryche's new album is going to be out sometime in 1994.  Is 
        that true?  If so what's the name going to be?

        New Album               Squrille <c561423@mizzou1.missouri.edu>
                In the most recent issue of Metal Edge, there is a 
        section on what to expect for 1994.  Sad news is, the 'Ryche was 
        in there for a _late_ '94 release.  Will someone wake me up when 
        it's out?

        New Album               <jaipiper@aol.com>
                Tane Pruett - the Penmates gal - says that the band will 
        be going in the studio _next month_!   But the new issue of Metal 
        Edge says relase is slated for "late" 1994 - guess we might not 
        see the new one until 1996 at this rate!
                        {Keep in mind that Metal Edge, like all of us, is
                        probably just guessing.  -sh}

        _Speak______________________________________Comments_&_Questions_

        Band Awareness          Christina <soeryant@egr.msu.edu>
                In the last digest Jorge was wondering if any of the band 
        members knew about the digest.  So am I.  Would it be possible 
        for the netters to get responses from the band members through 
        you, Shag?
                        {The closest Queensryche has come to having known
                        e-mail addresses was a Prodigy account that the 
                        fan club used to have.  Honestly, I have no means
                        of direct communication with the band.  -sh}

        Look-alikes             Squrille <c561423@mizzou1.missouri.edu>
                Ever notice that Michael looks a little like Jimmy Page?
        Or maybe I've had too much egg nog.
                        {Maybe both.  -sh}

        Religion and Mindcrime  Topher <christopher.white@mccaw.com>
                Speaking of Christian metal, I was actually, officially 
        declared a heretic for defending "Operation: Mindcrime" on 
        rec.music.christian.  Several readers were a bit upset that I 
        recommended it to all youth pastors (to help understand the 
        specific emotions of desperation the youth today are feeling). 
        Oh well, that wasn't the last time I was declared a heretic 
        there.

        Ray Gillian             <thecompany@aol.com>
                Regarding the discussion of Ray Gillian of Badlands, he 
        died about three weeks ago at a hospital in New Jersey from a 
        sudden flu-like illness.

        Tour Dates?             Kevin <ryche@delphi.com>
                Someone, I cannot remember who, was compiling a list of 
        all Queensryche's tour dates.  Has this been done yet?
                        {It's being done by Hugh, who can be contacted
                        at <am102@yfn.ysu.edu>, I presume it's currently
                        under construction.  -sh}

        _Spreading_the_Disease__________________________Info_&_Resources_

        Building Empires LD?    Christina <soeryant@egr.msu.edu>
                Where can I buy or order the LaserDisc of "Building 
        Empires?"
                        {The domestic release was by Pioneer - you can
                        contact their LaserDisc club at 1-800-322-2285.
                        Also, video stores carrying LaserDiscs may be
                        able to order it for you.  -sh}

        _The_Whisper__________________________________________Discussion_

        Eddie Interviewed?      Mark <maw8295@utarlg.uta.edu>
                Eddie Jackson must have been interviewed by GFTPM at some 
        point because in the October 1993 issue he is one of the "60 
        Guitar Greats" that describes his "dream band."  Here's what he 
        said:
        Guitar: Glen Buxton & Michael Bruce (Alice Cooper)
        Lead vocal: Brad Delp
        Bass: Eddie Jackson, Dennis Dunaway
        Drums: Tommy Aldridge, Terry Bozzio
        Keys: Brad Maddox (Queensryche sound man)
        Orchestra: London Philharmonic with Michael Kamen conducting

        _The_Killing_Words________________________________Interpretation_

        The Killing Words       Michael <mcph@sparc.ncpa.olemiss.edu>
                Regarding the lyrics of 'The Killing Words,' after 
        repeatedly listening to the Unplugged version of the song, I came 
        up with the following:
                Now the wireless in my hand is ringing,
                The distance of our lives keeps spreading.
                The pounding - I hear my heart... I'm not listening
                Your voice from far away is screaming... It's over.
        I may be misremembering a word or two, but I think that that is 
        basically it. :)

        The Killing Words       Stephen <ssarasin@nyx.cs.du.edu>
                I pondered on the question about the lyrics at the end of 
        'The Killing Words.'  I sat for a while, listening, and 
        re-winding my CD, trying to make it out...  So, here is my shot 
        at what I believe is being said (or at least, this is or should 
        be, pretty close...)
                Now the  bareness in my head is ringing
                The distance of our lives keep spreading
                The pounding... I hear my heart... I'm not listening
                Your voice from far away is screaming... It's over, over
                Too late to take a chance again... It's over
        Like I said, this is what I hear when I listen to the song - 
        although the first line (bareness) is sort of difficult to make 
        out, so I may indeed be off on that.  But at least it sort of 
        makes sense.

        The Killing Words       Tom <tmurphy@sun490.fdu.edu> 
        After playing the track a few times, I came up with the 
        following:
                "Now the --- in my head keeps ringing, 
                the distance of our lives keeps spreading, 
                the pounding I hear in my head I'm not listening, 
                we're both so far away it's screaming .. it's over..."
        Two parts of the song aren't entirely clear - the "Now the ... 
        in my head keeps ringing" and the "the pounding ... head I'm not 
        listening."  I tried to make it out the best I could. Hope this 
        helps.

        The Killing Words       Mark <maw8295@utarlg.uta.edu>
                I think the post-solo lyrics are:
                "Now the waters in my hand is ringing
                the distance of our lives keeps spreading
                the pounding I hear in my heart 'n I'm not listening
                your voice from far away is screaming..."
        The first line there is real sketchy as it seems kind of muffled 
        in both the original song and the Unplugged recording, but I 
        think the rest of it is pretty accurate.

        The Killing Words       Randy <rcollins@nyx.cs.du.edu> 
                After playing this about a million times forward and 
        backward I'm still not certain about this, it is really heard to 
        make out the lyrics, but I think I have most of it.  It may be a 
        few words off, but this is what I have so far.
                mark  lyrics
                2:46  All the while my head is ringing <- questionable
                2:50  The distance of our lives keep spreading
                2:54  The pounding I hear is my heart, I'm not listening
                2:58  The voice will fall away it's screaming
        Try that and let me know.  Thanks!

        The Killing Words       Meagan <mystii@wam.umd.edu>
                In reference to the final words of 'The Killing Words,'
        I thought they were:
                The distance of our lives keeps spreading
                The pounding of my head - I'm not listening
                The voices I hear keep screaming it's over...
        I don't know if those are right, but that's what they sound like 
        to me and I kind of think they make sense.

        _Anybody_Listening?_______________________________Advertisements_

        Trades Wanted           Kevin <ryche@delphi.com>
                Wanted:  Anyone willing to do trading of Queensryche 
        memorabilia.  I have video boots, audio boots, rarities, and 
        much, much more.  Please e-mail me for my complete list!  

        Livecrime               Charles <crenner@umr.edu>
                Periodically people ask where they can buy the 
        "Livecrime" set, or are looking for just the video or CD from it, 
        so I thought I'd pass along a bit of info.  While checking out 
        the used CD bins yesterday, I came across the whole set: CD, 
        video, book, and box.  The price was $15.99.  It all looked to be 
        in very good condition.  So if you're interested in getting your 
        grubby hands on it, e-mail me and we can work something out.

        Queensryche Candles     Kevin <ryche@delphi.com>
                I've had a lot of people e-mail me in the past few weeks 
        concerning the Queensryche candles.  Just to let everyone know, 
        David from TAMU will be back on the net towards the middle of 
        January.  He's going to be the one in charge of taking orders.  
        We still haven't hit our 48 mark yet.  So those of you still 
        interested, please e-mail me and your message will be passed on.

        _________________________________________________________________

                That's all for now, see you next week, unless they lock
        me up for using the writes-on-everything paint markers I got for
        Christmas to write Queensryche lyrics on everything!

                'Ryche on,
