Thursday, October 31: Queensrÿche, "Desert Dance"

Tribe sort of tried to right the ship for Queensrÿche: Chris DeGarmo came back to play and (most importantly) write, and toyed with returning to the band full-time before resurfacing all of the reasons that inspired him to leave in the first place.  But even though DeGarmo had a hand in composing half the album, the record largely played like a logical albeit less frazzled follow-up to Q2K- the songs were short but fussy, without a ton of melody or dynamics but plenty of implied complexity due to the cluttered arrangements.  “Desert Dance” had all of these things, but breathed a bit more and didn’t feel as far removed from Promised Land: written by DeGarmo alongside Geoff Tate, Michael Wilton and Scott Rockenfield, the track recalled the open-vista exploration that Queensrÿche often tried in the early ‘90s, while also layering on the crunch and churn of their late ‘90s material.  Tate sounded preposterous at times, but everyone took that as a given and at least in 2001 he was still able to summon some of the old fire when he was engaged with the material.  “Desert Dance” still played like nostalgia and was very much a post-peak track, but it offered simple charms and pleasures alongside some nice leads and rhythms.
