How the hell are Queen rated this low? No way in hell that these aren't a string of consecutive 4's.

He popularized the big gay mustache biker look which is radioactive to hipsters (unless japanese people do it, then it's automatic 4/5)

Queen are another famous band who in reality have about 5 good songs if they're lucky

Finally something RYM doesn't overrate. The fact that Bohemian Rhapsody still appears on all sorts of "best rock songs" lists to this day and that young people think it's the only prog rock song ever written makes me seethe.

Queen II should be bolded though, since that's one of their best, purely because of White Queen, Ogre Battle, Father to Son and March of the Black Queen
Not in your screenshot but surprised Innuendo is bolded, despite having some of their best songs it also has stuff like Delilah and All God's People

Their first 5-6 albums are consistently full of great songs. Queen II, Sheer Heart Attack, A Night at the Opera and A Day at the Races are some of the greatest albums of all time.

Newsflash you braindead cunts: RYM ratings are meaningless and arbitrary. Paying attention to them is one of the stupidest ways to waste your time and mental energy.

4chan still thinks it's cool to dislike queen but the truth is redditor midwits now hate queen and actual patricians know that they're one of the best rock and pop bands of all time
>but muh singles
Most bands have 0 good songs. Some bands have 1 good song. A small amount of bands have 3 or 4 good songs. A few select bands have 1 good album. Queen not only has multiple good albums, but each one of their albums has at least 2 memorable songs.
>muh overplayed
Literally a non-factor, a song is still the same song no matter how many times it's played

I personally don't like Queen very much. Maybe it's a more common sentiment than I assumed.

I've never listened to a whole album of theirs. Just a shit ton of their popular songs. And on that basis I determined I have no further interest.

The problem with Queen is that they have become unfairly associated with sports events, and as a result has attained the image of being music for dimwitted sports fans with beer bellies, when in reality, they belong right next to ABBA as a 70's act that was ultimately an unbelievable tour de force in producing banger after banger. Even We Will Rock You, despite being tainted by sport stadiums around the world, is actually a pretty cool and iconic song, comparable to Come Together by Beatles. We all just take it for granted at this point.

I think Flash Gordon is a really good soundtrack and works extremely well in the campy context of the movie but theres no reason to listen to it separately.
Hitherwhencetoforthuponsuch it doesn’t really belong on a list of albums imo.

I looked over queen until recently because of how overblown they are especially after that movie, but they were fucking amazing musicians. Kind of like the Beatles of the 70s and 80s. They effortlessly nailed heavy, progressive, pop, and folk music. As well as songs like orge attack and get down make love that just sound like nothing else

We Will Rock You is cool, but I wouldn't call it one of the greatest. We Are The Champions is a true masterpiece of a song though.

Why do you care about ratings?
They are given by people even more deaf than you.
The only useful information here is the number of ratings, you can see which albums are considered more important.
