Operation Mindcrime is one of the 5 best albums ever made throughout the history of stereophonic audio recordings. At the end of the day, no obscure metal band in the world deserves to smell Queensrÿches shit.
Operation Mindcrime is also one of the most underrated albums ever, and it will remain so until each and every individual on this planet proclaims it superior to anything they have previously held dear. Which will happen, on judgement day, or else this world is doomed.

Looking forward to Judgement Day then, can't wait to see our world's end. I was always curious about it.

You ain't gonna like it, believe me. There shall be no metal in the afterlife for those refusing to see the truth before their end has come.

Oh please. OM has really catchy songs, bad production and a storyline that starts interesting and becomes a sappy love story. It's a hugely infliential record, very well-known, but for me it's 8/10.

It has 2 superb. tracks IMO. the rest is
I can't explain why it doesn't move me, it bores me to death. The exact opposite is going on right now with Lords Of the Crimson Alliance. This monster will CRUSH the little wimp called Queensryche with ease at the end of days...

Hahaha
I don't hate OM or whatever, but it's not more than 5/10 for me. I remember I first heard the record around 15 years ago at a friends place. I was very curious about it, and did not "intend" to not like it. But it was sooo boring, so I ignored the record for an eternity.
All the praise I heard again here and there led to me buying another copy maybe a year ago, thinking "maybe I wasn't in the right mood, and it's a looooong time ago since I heard it, let's give it another chance".
Well, I bought it, I listend to it, and I found NOTHING interesting in this record, yet again. Boooooooooring

You're all outta your minds. There is no grading scale in the universe that can be used to measure the incomparable greatness of Operation Mindcrime.

I couldn't first get into Queensryche mainly because of Tate's vocals. I mean I did understand he's a very capable vocalist but it was his voice that I disliked.. No, almost loathed. It sounded very annoying and hypocritical (in some weird way) at the time to me. Nowadays I DO love his voice but just wanted to say I understand people who don't. Then again I HATED Lachman too at first listens.
But funny thing is I never had any troubles with Tim Baker or Smash (Solar Eagle's vocalist).
