Geoff Tate Blames Queensryche's Labels For Band's Music

(Classic Rock) Former Queensryche singer Geoff Tate has shouted down suggestions that the band endured disappointing album sales because of a lack of quality in their musical output. And he insists the allegation that he refused to play some of their older songs is simply a lie.

Instead he says record labels are to blame for telling them what kind of songs to write then failing to support the resulting releases.

In the latest round of fighting that's resulted in two Queensryche lineups coming into existence, the frontman refutes his replacement Todd La Torre's suggestion that his musical direction was not the fans' satisfaction.
