Was Geoff Tate a musical dictator, or was he the victim of a spineless, backstabbing coup? For months, the mainstream rock press has fed you the narrative of “the split,” but Chris Akin finally gets the voice of Queensryche to reveal the “underhanded” secret meetings and lawyer letters that burned a 30-year legacy to the ground. Are the remaining members of Queensryche desperately lying to justify their actions, or is Tate truly the only one with the vision to keep the name alive? You need to hear this scorched-earth perspective before you decide which camp gets your loyalty—or if the band you loved is officially dead.
