3 stars Bombast and studio trickery are all very good but what about the songs? Well, the songs on Queensryche's second album-while not all winners-certainly reach some emotional and artistic peaks. 'Walk In the Shadows' is a terrific opening rocker with some truly stratospheric vocals from Geoff Tate but then we are treated with the Proggish power ballad 'I Dream In Infrared' followed by a flashy polyrhythmic drum groove that anchors the riff heavy 'The Whisper'. 'Gonna Get Close To You' is a voyeuristic cover complete with earth-shattering Phil Collins drums and a sleazy Geoff Tate vocal but it is after this point in the album that the songwriting quality dips a little.
