Friday, June 23: Queensrÿche, "My Global Mind"
“My Global Mind” immediately recalled “Real World” in its opening moments, and like that radio hit the Promised Land track was composed by most of Queensrÿche’s members in collaboration (“Real World” was written by the entire band and Michael Kamen, whereas Geoff Tate, Chris DeGarmo, Michael Wilton and Scott Rockenfield put this one together). But whereas that earlier tune was largely atmospheric and esoteric in nature, “My Global Mind” was more immediate, with Rockenfield’s busy percussion clearing a path for a relatively streamlined bridge before the chorus went full prog metal. Tate’s pretentions had definitely gotten the better of him, but there was still a certain majesty to Queensrÿche in the mid ‘90s: Promised Land wasn’t as big a hit as Empire, and the band as a whole got caught up in the hype and too big for their britches, but the record went Platinum and charted higher than any of their albums before or since, and has since become a sleeper favorite among the fanbase, and “My Global Mind” fit this dichotomy, as it had a distinct blend of technicality, power, hooks and pseudo-intellectualism.
