                Hi, everyone - five weeks and counting!  More information
        on the new album, but we still don't know much more about the 
        CD-ROM.  Sometime around when the new album comes out, SiD may be
        changing slightly, but details on that aren't finalized yet.

        New Album       Tim <glutta@ctrvax.vanderbilt.edu>
                I was flipping through the October issue of RIP magazine 
        when I saw a thrilling sight on page 7: a full page ad for the 
        new Queensryche "Promised Land" album!  Complete with the 
        October 18 release date and a shot of the tri-ryche atop a totem 
        pole - perhaps the cover art?  You might want to take a look just 
        for the cool visuals!

        New Album       Kevin <laferrie@bashfull.usmcs.maine.edu>
                The latest information that I have seen is that the new 
        album is called "Promised Land," and that the release date is 
        October 18th.  Dream Theater's new album is called "Awake," and 
        it is coming out on Oct. 4th.

        New Single      <m.j.thomas-se2@computer-science.birmingham.ac.uk>
                I heard from the Dream Theater mailing list that the 
        first single off "The Promised Land" will be called 'I am I' and
        will be out on the 5th of October.

        New Album       Clive <c.mccaig@queens-belfast.ac.uk>
                I've got some hard information regarding the new album.
        The tracks are '9:28 AM,' 'I Am I,' 'Damaged,' 'Out of Mind,'
        'Bridge,' 'Promised Land,' 'Disconnected,' 'Lady Jane,' 'My
        Global Mind,' 'One More Time,' and 'Someone Else?'
                Sources that have heard the album say it contains some of 
        the "richest and most sophisticated" 'Ryche songs yet.  There 
        will be a complete full update in next week's Kerrang.  Also 
        regarding the release date, we here in the UK are getting it 8 
        days before the US, on October 10th - just thought I'd rub it in 
        a little. ;)

        Mail-Order?     Cameron <camshaft@werple.apana.org.au>
                I bought myself a copy of "Rage for Order" the other 
        week, and I was blown away by the level of musicianship that the 
        guys possess, especially Geoff's _awesome_ voice!
                Does anyone know of a good reputable mail order company 
        in the states that handles international orders?  I am hoping to 
        a get a copy of "The Promised Land" with the CD-ROM here in 
        Australia without having to wait forever for it to arrive in the 
        stores over here without the CD-ROM.

                In addition to the 'Scarborough Fair' and 'Last Time in 
        Paris' B-sides, an acoustic version of 'I Dream in Infrared' is 
        on the 'Jet City Woman' single, I think.  It's pretty good and 
        you should get it if you happen to find it.

        B-Sides         Darren <darren.wilkes@bj.co.uk> 
                I bought the double CD-single of 'Silent Lucidity' a few 
        years ago that had 'Last Time in Paris' as one of the extra 
        tracks.  Other extra tracks on the two discs were live versions 
        of 'Operation Mindcrime,' 'Suite Sister Mary' and one other I 
        can't remember at the moment.  All of the live tracks were taken 
        from the "Livecrime" video, as far as I can tell.
                By the way, I actually bought the "Last Action Hero" 
        soundtrack on CD so that I could have 'Real World' - I managed 
        to find it cheap in a petrol station though.  I prefer the 
        Megadeth track 'Angry Again,' which is the best on the album.

        B-Sides         Markus <mb@marie.physik.tu-berlin.de>
                The Song 'Last Time in Paris' was also released on the 
        'Another Rainy Night (Without You)' maxi.

        Unplugged       Scott <mussk@uxa.ecn.bgu.edu>
                I finally found "Unplugged... and Other Stories" at the 
        local CD shop.  Does anyone know if this is the only version?  
        The cover for this one is the guys standing - possibly leaning on 
        something - with their backstage passes around their necks.  
        Please let me know if this is the same disc everyone else has, 
        and advise me of the quality - both the unplugged stuff and the 
        other material.  Please e-mail me, as the store will only hold it 
        for a couple of days!

        _The_Whisper__________________________________________Discussion_

        Mary's Demise   Chris <csimmns@whale.st.usm.edu>
                I agree with Larry.  To dwell too long on Mary's death is 
        to rob the rest of the album's glory of attention.  The main 
        question I have concerning Queensryche is what is going to be on 
        the CD-ROM.  That's the only thing I'm curious about.

        _The_Killing_Words________________________________Interpretation_

        Rage Concept    Christopher <keeler@eden.rutgers.edu>
                Not to bring up an old topic, but I do believe that "Rage
        For Order" is a concept album.  The inside of the CD cover even 
        says "Concept by Queensryche," or something like that.

        Rage Boots      Bryon <muse@itnlan.ampr.ab.ca>
                A couple of months ago, I saw an article in here about 
        the lack of live tapes from the "Rage" tour.  I have one of them
        playing live in Winnipeg when they were opening for AC/DC.  I'd
        be willing to trade for copies of other live appearances.
                By the way, it's great to hear about the new Album.  I
        can't wait.

        Unplugged       Stefan <stefan-a@dsv.su.se>
                I'm looking for the "Unplugged" performance.  Could 
        someone list the bootlegs of it and also the sound quality of the 
        discs and additional info? Thanks!

                If you watch the movie "Snapdragon" - ok, my friends and 
        I watch bad movies - you'll hear the ever-so-common announcement 
        in the background.  Also,

        new album that hasn't already been told in here, please send it!
