Fan-filmed video footage of QUEENSRCHE's October 11 performance at Eastside Cannery Hotel & Casino in Las Vegas, Nevada can be seen below. QUEENSRCHE's self-titled album sold around 13,500 copies in the United States in its first week of release to land at position No. 23 on The Billboard 200 chart. The record arrived in stores on June 25, 2013 via Century Media Records. "Queensrÿche" marked the debut release from the lineup comprised of La Torre (vocals; ex-CRIMSON GLORY), Michael Wilton (guitar), Parker Lundgren (guitar), Eddie Jackson (bass) and Scott Rockenfield (drums). Asked about the progress of the songwriting sessions for QUEENSRCHE's next studio album following the settlement agreement between the band and its former lead singer, Geoff Tate, over the rights to the QUEENSRCHE name, Michael Wilton told "Totally Driven Radio": "We're busy finishing up songs. We've got quite an arsenal lined up of tunes, ranging from all different sonic diversity. We're really happy and having fun doing this one. It's just a creative birthday of almost some sort
It's just like, 'Wow!' We all five think the same, we're all cohesively linked. It's just a great time, and all that underlying tension is gone, and we are ready to bring you the next QUEENSRYCHE album, and it'll be a step beyond the one we just did." He continued: "We're taking our time now. The record company is, like, 'Just do the record when you feel it's done, and then we'll put it out.' If you're looking for a time, it's gonna be early 2015, maybe spring, or something right in that area. That's kind of a safe bet. But we're working really hard, we're diligent, and we're really motivated, so
we'll see what happens. But to get the whole thing going, to get the whole machine going, and get everybody involved that needs to be involved, it's quite an undertaking and quite a task and it's all about timing and everybody being available and all that."
