Where do you start with Queen?

Nowhere because they suck shit

>>73758272
First album. It's my favorite by them.

>>73758277
t.Contrarian

>>73758272
Queen, Queen II, Sheer Heart Attack, A Night at the Opera.

>>73758310
t. irrelevant femanon

>>73758358
But to single it to one album I'd say Sheer Heart Attack. THere's some incredible stuff on that album

I'd start with their first album, then Night at the Opera, then anywhere after that

>>73758272
Innuendo then go backwards

Sheer heart Attack is the best of their style they grew into but I liked Queen II better as well as Queen I

>>73758272
Don't unless you want to be reddit

>>73758272
You don't

>>73758272
Queen II

best album before they got all gay and shit

>>73758272
Start by throwing it in a brand new trash bag, because even my garbage is more valuable than any queen album

I've been seeing a lot of Queen threads lately. Are they the next popular band to get the /mu/ contrarian-contrarian treatment? Where /mu/ like a popular band in order to be contrarian to people who hate the band to be contrarian?

>>73759948
or...wait for it...not everyone has autism and they just post about whatever bands they like...woah

are you new?
That era started a couple years ago

News of the World is the best of them all. Then go Queen II, Sheer Heart Attack, and Night at the Opera

>>73758404
seconded

no.

>>73758272
Start by buying a rope (thickness depends on you).
Then proceed to tie it into a noose which forms a closed loop one end of the rope.
Attach the other end of the rope (without a loop) to a durable hanging place (a tree branch, a ceiling fan, etc.). Make sure it is high enough for this to work. Then, you get a chair of just the right height and you stand on it, directly below the place where you attached the rope. Tie the other end (the one with the loop) around your neck. After making sure that it is secure and well-fitted, kick the chair and you're all set! Enjoy!

Queen are objectively better than most /mu/core

With most bands, I advise that you go chronologically and Queen is no exception, but skip Hot Space and Flash Gordon:

Queen
Queen II
Sheer Heart Attack
A Night at the Opera
A Day at the Races
News of the World
Jazz
The Game
The Works
A Kind of Magic
The Miracle
Innuendo
Made in Heaven (only if you really enjoy the band)

However, a second option may be advisable - that is beginning with the pop albums and finishing with the rock. In that case:

The Game
The Works
A Kind of Magic
The Miracle
Innuendo
Made in Heaven
Jazz
Queen
Queen II
Sheer Heart Attack
A Night at the Opera
A Day at the Races
News of the World

>>73761668
Hot Space is good.
GOOD.

>>73761668
>skip Flash Gordon

>>73762019
this. The Works is much worse

don't

From the first album to Jazz.

The rest is shit except for the singles.

>>73764856
Oh, and Innuendo is good too.

Queen II [EMI, 1974]

Wimpoid heavoid royaloid android no void. C

A Night at the Opera [EMI, 1975]

This is near enough to the reported mishmash to make me doubt that it sells for what's good about it. Which is that it doesn't actually botch any of a half-dozen arty-to-heavy "eclectic" modes--even something called "Prophet's Song" sounds okay--and achieves a parodic tone often enough to suggest more than meets the ear. Maybe if they come up with a coherent masterwork I'll figure out what that more is. Maybe if they come up with a coherent masterwork they'll figure out what that more is. B-

The News of the World [EMI, 1977]

In which the group who last winter brought you a $7.95 LP to boycott devotes one side to the wantonness of woman and the other to the doomed-to-life futile rebelliousness of the poor saps (those saps! you saps!) who buy and listen. C-

Jazz [EMI, 1978]

Despite the title, this isn't completely disgusting and "Bicycle Race" is even kind of cute. Worth 10 ccs. Now stick a spoke or a pump in their ass. B-

Return of the Champions [Hollywood, 2005]

Freddie Mercury was a real queen, but Paul Rodgers is a big disgrace. And that's not even getting into the Free cover, the Bad Company cover, and (let's not kid ourselves here) the HIV song. D+

I like night at the opera and day at the races. All the tracks are really good except for prophets song off of night and white man off of day.

Literally /r/eddit the band, exclusively for plebeian smoothbrains who probably own an entire wall of DVDs for some idiotic reason. Bohemian Rhapsody is a fedora in musical form. Queen fans all smell like dick cheese and insist on make paying to stream music a point of pride instead of downloading it for free like a normal, smart person.

"Ya gotta admit, Queen always put on a great show, and Freddie had some amazing pipes. Ya gotta respect them as entertainers" *blows up own head with a pipe bomb*

Queen is for fat, stinky men with IBS, and fat, angry, hairy women with PCOS.

From Frank Zappa (musicians) to Scaruffi (crtiics) to certain point, Queen has been praised as one of the most eclectic and unique bands from the past century.

I won't use 'something popular can be also good', but you're arguments are basicly the contrary.

May was an innovative guitarist and Mercury must be in the top10 rock voices from all time. Bass lines from Deacon were catchy but elaborated. Their vocal harmonies were as good as Beach Boys' or The Beatles.

>>73766523
/r/eddit is that way man ------------------------>

why are queen's deep cuts so underrated?

Literally worse than the Beatles. God only knows how they managed that.

their hits scared away the hipsters.

>>73762019
Hot space is good, but it doesn't work as a Queen album. It should have been released under a different name.
>>73763288
The Works is IMHO the best Queen album of the 80s and better than any in the 90s.
>>73763144
Watch the movie, but the soundtrack does not work without visuals
