Digital Noise Alliance is the fourth studio album by QUEENSRŸCHE with vocalist Todd La Torre at the helm. The album sonically blends the best of QUEENSRŸCHE’s past with the best of their present. I had the chance to preview Digital Noise Alliance, and it is by far QUEENSRŸCHE’s best effort in over 20 years.
Now I’m not saying that QUEENSRŸCHE hasn’t released a good album in that timespan, they have. It’s just that I believe Digital Noise Alliance is the best of the bunch. I wouldn’t want some news site to misconstrue what I was trying to convey there, but we’ll get to more on that later.
I had the opportunity to speak with QUEENSRŸCHE frontman Todd La Torre about Digital Noise Alliance while he was preparing for the oncoming hurricane set to hit his hometown.
Highlights include:
-Discussion of Digital Noise Alliance
-Recording the album in person vs. e-mail
-Resurrecting old gear used on classic albums
-Today’s Metal sounding the same
-Behind the scenes of “Behind The Walls” video
-Working with Chris “Zeuss” Harris for the 3rd time
-Touring with JUDAS PRIEST
-Sensational ‘yellow press’ headlines
-Is Todd working on another solo album?
-And much, much more
