i love Queen, i love their theatrics, i love their ridiculously elaborate layered guitar and vocal harmonies, i love their bombastic operatic influence

for what feels like months ive been scouring the internet for bands that sound even remotely like them. ive managed to find a good chunk of bands that sound similar to them, and they're really good bands too - Sparks, The Protomen, Jellyfish, Brendon Small's Galaktikon, The Darkness (mainly the later tracks on One Way Ticket), and probably my all-time favorite Foxy Shazam (mainly Introducing and Church of Rock 'n' Roll, especially the latter), but I'm still not satisfied. I feel like I still haven't found enough bands. feel like a fucking coke addict. I need my fix

I wish operatic rock was a big enough subgenre of rock to even be called a subgenre of rock because if it was it'd probably be my favorite subgenre
>>
I like Queen too. Fuck the haters.
>>
Try R.E.M
>>
Try Foxy Shazam

Listen to a Dangerous Man

>>68574756
queen blows
>>
MUSE
>>
>>68575575
ive been meaning to try muse more. i do like what ive heard of them. at times the vocal harmonies can be quite impressive. but they are a lot synthier than queen. and at times the way the lead singer pronounces things can be a bit silly
>>
>>68574756
my chemical romance
>>
ELO maybe
>>
>>68575975
very very good band, but a lot more orchestral synthpoppy doo-wop than operatic and bombastic
>>
This is the Queen-iest Muse song but really only the falsetto part.

Maybe try Cardiacs?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ivgZVV43Dq8
>>
>>68576453
yeah, i do really like that muse song. and cardiacs is one of my favorite bands but i dont really see the similarities between them and queen, though so many different people have compared them.
>>
>>68575896
I don't recall them being very synthy on Origins of Symmetry

Then again, I haven't listened to that in like ten years so
>>
>>68574756
Some early to mid 70s Bowie might fit your bill. Ziggy Stardust through probably Young Americans
>>
>>68574756
AIM AND IGNITE
check out the songs Be Calm and All The Pretty Girls. Also this album used to be huge on /mu/
>>
>>68577169
