Condition Hüman
Condition Hüman is the fourteenth studio album by American progressive metal band Queensrÿche, released on 2 October 2015 through Century Media. It followed their 2013 self-titled record and was the second to feature vocalist Todd La Torre, who joined after Geoff Tate was fired and a two-year lawsuit over rights to the band's name was amicably settled.
The album was recorded in early 2015 at Uberbeatz Studios in Washington and produced by Chris "Zeuss" Harris. "Arrow of Time" was the first single, streaming from 20 July 2015, the same day the title and release date were announced. It is also the last Queensrÿche album to feature original drummer Scott Rockenfield, who stepped away in 2017. For anyone following the band's rebuilding under La Torre, it is a key chapter.
