Digital Noise Alliance
Digital Noise Alliance is the sixteenth studio album from Queensrÿche, the American progressive metal band. It came out on 7 October 2022 on Century Media, with Chris "Zeuss" Harris producing. Three singles led the way: "In Extremis" in June, "Forest" in July and "Behind The Walls" at the end of August.
In the band's story, this is the fourth record with vocalist Todd La Torre, following The Verdict in 2019. It also brings some changes behind the kit and on guitar. Casey Grillo makes his first appearance on a Queensrÿche album as drummer, and rhythm guitarist Mike Stone returns for the first time since Take Cover in 2007. If you've followed the La Torre era, it's a good place to hear how the reshaped line-up sounds together.
