Queen Deep Dive: Extra, extra, it's News of the World

I'm excited to kick off Queen's antsy and edgy sixth album, News of the World. For the first time, the guys are consistently and noticeably angrier and more aggressive among the stark, raw and minimal arrangements. Gone are the classical inflections, and the lush and sweeping warmth of previous albums. It's a radical shift in Queen world, as we get into this diverse classic hard rock album. Glimpses of multi-tracked harmonies and trademark riffs remain, of course.
