Operation: Mindcrime (band)

Various musicians have contributed to the band, both live and in studio and it features members such as John Moyer (also known for being in Disturbed) and Simon Wright (also known for his work with AC/DC and Ronnie James Dio).

[2] Tate's group released the album Frequency Unknown, produced and mixed by Jason Slater, on April 23, 2013, in the U.S.

In return, musicians Michael Wilton, Scott Rockenfield, Todd La Torre, and Eddie Jackson retained all rights to the 'Queensrÿche' brand.

[4] The La Torre-fronted Queensrÿche has retained the right to perform material coming from and related to the two Operation: Mindcrime albums live.

This legal set-up is somewhat similar to that of Pink Floyd and their former bandmate Roger Waters, in which both artists have performed songs from The Wall live.

[5] The second album in the trilogy, Resurrection, was released on September 23, 2016, and features guest appearances by Blaze Bayley and Tim "Ripper" Owens, among others.
