Sheer Heart Attack is the third studio album by the British rock band Queen, released on 8 November 1974 by EMI Records in the United Kingdom and by Elektra Records in the United States. Departing from the progressive themes featured on their first two albums, the album featured more pop-centric and conventional rock tracks and marked a step towards the "classic" Queen sound.<ref name="allmusic" /> It was produced by the band and Roy Thomas Baker, and launched Queen to mainstream popularity in the UK and throughout the world.
The album's first single "Killer Queen" reached number 2 on the UK Singles Chart and provided the band with their first top 20 hit in the US, peaking at number 12 on the Billboard Hot 100. Sheer Heart Attack was the first Queen album to hit the US top 20, peaking at number 12 on the Billboard Top LPs & Tapes Chart in 1975. It has been acknowledged for containing "a wealth of outstanding hard rock guitar tracks".<ref name="prown/newquist" /> Retrospectively, it has been listed by multiple publications as one of the band's best works and has been deemed an essential glam rock album.<ref name="10 Essential Glam Rock Albums" />
Background and recordingEdit
Template:Quote box After completing their second album, Queen embarked on their Queen II Tour as a support act for Mott the Hoople. After touring extensively throughout the UK, the two groups decided to tour together in the US, marking Queen's first tour in the country. The bands would remain on friendly terms for the rest of their career, with Ian Hunter performing "All the Young Dudes" at the Freddie Mercury Tribute Concert.<ref>1992 The Freddie Mercury Tribute Concert Ultimate Queen. Retrieved 25 August 2018</ref> Queen played their first US show on 16 April 1974 in Denver, Colorado,<ref name="Loudersound">Everley, Dave.

Retrieved 25 August 2018</ref> as a support, which Freddie Mercury reportedly disliked, saying: "Being support is one of the most traumatic experiences of my life".<ref name="Melody Maker"/> At the climax of the tour in Boston, Brian May was discovered to have hepatitis, possibly from the use of a contaminated needle during vaccinations the group received before travelling to Australia.<ref name="Loudersound"/> The remainder of the tour was subsequently cancelled and Queen flew back home, where May was hospitalised.<ref>Sheer Heart Attack & Killer Queen - Days Of Our Lives Documentary Retrieved 25 August 2018. -via YouTube</ref>
In June, the band gathered together at Trident Studios to start rehearsing material for the album. Koh Hasebe interviewed Mercury, Roger Taylor and John Deacon when they were rehearsing on 13 June.<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> At the beginning of July, May joined them for rehearsals. The band were just preparing to record, and on 7 July, they trekked three and a half hours to get to the Rockfield Studios in Wales,<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> where they would record ten backing tracks, finishing on 28 July.<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> At the start of August, work shifted to Wessex Sound Studios. Work there would not last long, however, as May, who was starting to feel uneasy, went to a specialist clinic on 2 August. He collapsed at the clinic, as a result of a duodenal ulcer,<ref name="auto">{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> and would be operated on the following day, but discharged from the hospital soon after so he could recover at home.<ref name="auto"/> While the band were overdubbing at Wessex, May booked studio time at AIR Studios, where he recorded "Dear Friends" and "She Makes Me".<ref>Template:Cite book</ref> In the meantime, Taylor and Deacon made an appearance at an EMI/Radio Luxembourg motor rally at Brands Hatch on 11 August.<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> By late August, May was working with the band again, and the rest of the band would add their parts to the songs he had recorded. There was still one song that needed to be recorded as the band worked into September, and that was "Now I'm Here". They recorded the backing track for this one at Wessex, and saved the rest to be completed during the mixing sessions.<ref>Template:Cite book</ref>
Mixing commenced in the middle of September. The band were still overdubbing at this point, so they hired someone to deliver tapes from recording studio to mixing studio via motorcycle. The heart of the mixing sessions took place at Trident Studios, and one or two days was spent mixing each of the majority of the songs. "Brighton Rock", on the other hand, took four days to mix, with six hours' worth of different mixes created during that time. Each song was mixed in little edited sections that were about fifteen to twenty seconds in length.<ref name="gearslutz.com">{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> At this point, Trident had just installed a 24-track machine in their studio that had been around since 1972, but was not functioning until 1974.<ref>Template:Cite book</ref> In fact, the album was Trident's first 24-track project. Even though Trident had expanded their recording flexibility by eight tracks, this was still not enough to be able to mix each track individually. "Bring Back That Leroy Brown", for example, had 70 vocal tracks and had to be mixed down to work with the 24-track mixer.<ref name="gearslutz.com"/>
On 20 September, it was announced the band were attempting to secure a release date for the album of 1 November, though it seemed unlikely that they would be finished in time to meet that deadline.<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> They mixed "Now I'm Here", which was the last thing to be mixed, on 22 October. May did an interview the next day (which was published on 26 October) that explained what finishing the album was like.<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> In total, the band used four different studios in the making of Sheer Heart Attack: most of the backing tracks were recorded at Rockfield, two backing tracks and some guitar overdubs were recorded at AIR Studios, most of the overdubs and one backing track were recorded at Wessex, and the mixing was done at Trident.
SongsEdit
The album noticeably shifts away from the progressive rock themes of its predecessors, and has been categorised as hard rock<ref name="prown/newquist">Template:Cite book</ref><ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref><ref name="queenarchives">{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> and glam rock.<ref name="10 Essential Glam Rock Albums">{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref><ref name="Bennett2005">Template:Cite book</ref><ref>Template:Cite magazine</ref> The Daily Vault described it as "an important transition album" because it showcased "what the band would soon become while giving a nod to their hard-rock past,"<ref name="queenarchives" /> while Stephen Thomas Erlewine of AllMusic observed that, although there are still references to the fantasy themes of their earlier works, particularly on "In the Lap of the Gods" and "Lily of the Valley", "the fantasy does not overwhelm as it did on the first two records".<ref name="allmusic" />
"Killer Queen" was written in a single night, which contrasts with the, as Mercury put it, "ages" it took to write "The March of the Black Queen".<ref name="Melody Maker"/> "Brighton Rock" was written during the making of Queen II; "Stone Cold Crazy" had its genesis in Mercury's pre-Queen band Wreckage; and Mercury wrote "Flick of the Wrist" during May's illness-induced absence. As it included the first song written by John Deacon that Queen recorded ("Misfire") alongside tracks written by the other members of the band, Sheer Heart Attack was the first of the group's albums to contain at least one song written by each member; "Stone Cold Crazy" was the band's first song for which all four members shared the writing credit.
"Brighton Rock"Edit
{{#invoke:Labelled list hatnote|labelledList|Main article|Main articles|Main page|Main pages}} "Brighton Rock" was written by Brian May during the Queen II sessions, but was not recorded at that time, as the group felt it would not fit with the rest of the album.<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> Lyrically, it tells the story of two young lovers named Jenny and Jimmy, who meet in Brighton on a public holiday.<ref name="Brighton">Brighton Rock AllMusic. Retrieved 1 September 2011</ref> Mods travelling to Brighton on bank holidays was a popular narrative at the time, as in The Who's Quadrophenia.<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref>
The song includes a three-minute unaccompanied guitar solo interlude,<ref name="Brighton" /> which makes extensive use of delay to build up guitar harmony and contrapuntal melodic lines. It grew out of May's experimentation with an Echoplex unit while he attempted to recreate his guitar orchestrations for live performances of "Son and Daughter". He had made modifications to the original unit so he could change the delay times, and ran each echo through a separate amplifier to avoid interference.<ref name=Guitarworld.com>Template:Cite magazine</ref>
The studio version of the solo only contains one "main" guitar and one "echoed" guitar for a short section, but, live, May would usually split his guitar signal into one "main" and two "echoed" guitars, with each going to a separate bank of amplifiers. In concert, the solo has been performed as part of "Brighton Rock", in a medley with another song, or as a standalone piece. For example, May performed some of it at the closing ceremony of the 2012 Summer Olympics in London.<ref>"Olympics closing ceremony – playlist". The Telegraph. Retrieved 6 September 2012</ref> Considered one of May's finest solos,<ref name="Brighton" /> Guitar World ranked it No. 41 on their list of the 100 Greatest Guitar Solos of All Time.<ref name=Guitarworld.com />
"Killer Queen"Edit
{{#invoke:Labelled list hatnote|labelledList|Main article|Main articles|Main page|Main pages}} "Killer Queen" was written by Freddie Mercury and was the band's first international hit single.<ref>Whitburn, Joel (2006). The Billboard Book of Top 40 Hits. Billboard Books</ref><ref>Roberts, David (2006). British Hit Singles & Albums. London: Guinness World Records Limited</ref> Mercury played a jangle piano as well as a grand piano on the recording. After it charted as a single, the band performed the song on Top of the Pops.
"Tenement Funster"/"Flick of the Wrist"/"Lily of the Valley"Edit
{{#invoke:Labelled list hatnote|labelledList|Main article|Main articles|Main page|Main pages}} Roger Taylor wrote "Tenement Funster" about youth and rebellion and sang lead vocals, while John Deacon played the song's prominent acoustic guitar parts in May's absence. It segues into Mercury's "Flick of the Wrist" (which was released, along with "Killer Queen", as a double A-sided single), and then into a softer, piano-based Mercury song, "Lily of the Valley", making the three songs continuous.<ref name="AMusic">Black Clouds & Silver Linings (Special Edition) Allmusic. Retrieved 1 September 2011</ref>
"Now I'm Here"Edit
{{#invoke:Labelled list hatnote|labelledList|Main article|Main articles|Main page|Main pages}} "Now I'm Here" was written by May while hospitalised, and recalls the group's early tour supporting Mott the Hoople. It was recorded during the last week of the sessions for the album, with May playing piano.<ref>Now I'm Here Allmusic. Retrieved 1 September 2011</ref>
"In the Lap of the Gods"Edit
"In the Lap of the Gods" was written by Mercury and featured multiple vocal overdubs from himself and Roger Taylor. It features one of the highest notes on the album, sung by Taylor. Template:Citation needed
"Stone Cold Crazy"Edit
{{#invoke:Labelled list hatnote|labelledList|Main article|Main articles|Main page|Main pages}} "Stone Cold Crazy" was one of the earliest tracks that Queen performed live, and had several different arrangements before being recorded for Sheer Heart Attack. No band member was able to remember who had written the lyrics when the album was released, so they shared the writing credit, the first of their songs to do so. The lyrics deal with gangsters and include a reference to Al Capone. The track has a fast tempo and heavy distortion, presaging speed metal.<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> Music magazine Q described "Stone Cold Crazy" as "thrash metal before the term was invented".<ref name="QMagazine">Queen News: February 2011 BrianMay.com. Retrieved 2 July 2011</ref> The song was played live at almost every Queen concert between 1974 and 1978.<ref>Queen live on tour: Sheer Heart Attack: Setlist Queen Concerts.

Metallica covered the song as their contribution to the 1990 compilation album Rubáiyát: Elektra's 40th Anniversary. This cover version won a Grammy Award in 1991; it also appeared on the band's compilation Garage Inc.
"Dear Friends"Edit
"Dear Friends" is a ballad written by May and sung by Mercury.
"Misfire"Edit
"Misfire" was John Deacon's first individual composition for the band, and featured him playing the guitar solo and all guitar parts on the track except for some parts at the end of the song, in which Brian's Red Special becomes more prominent.
"Bring Back That Leroy Brown"Edit
The title of "Bring Back That Leroy Brown" alludes to the then-recent hit "Bad Bad Leroy Brown" by American singer-songwriter Jim Croce, who had died in a plane crash the previous year. Written by Mercury, "Bring Back That Leroy Brown" features him playing grand piano and jangle piano, as well as doing multiple vocal overdubs. May plays a short section on ukulele-banjo, and Deacon plays a line on the double bass. DRUM! Magazine commended Taylor's drum work on the song: "It really shows off Taylor’s versatility. He nails dozens of kicks throughout this fast and tricky song and proves that he could’ve been a big band drummer or ably fit into any theatrical pit band if Queen hadn’t worked out so well for him. Honky-tonk piano, upright bass, ukulele-banjo, and a smokin' drummer all add up to a rollicking good time."<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref>
"She Makes Me (Stormtrooper in Stilettoes)"Edit
"She Makes Me (Stormtrooper in Stilettoes)" was written and sung by May with him and Deacon playing acoustic guitars.
"In the Lap of the Gods...Revisited"Edit
"In the Lap of the Gods...Revisited" was one of Queen's set-closers from 1974 to 1977. During the 1986 Magic tour, it was performed again in a medley, where it segued into "Seven Seas of Rhye".
Reception and legacyEdit
At the time of its release, NME called the album: "A feast. No duffers, and four songs that will just run and run: 'Killer Queen', 'Flick of the Wrist', 'Now I'm Here', and 'In the Lap of the Gods...Revisited'."<ref name="nme">Quoted in Jacky Gunn, Jim Jenkins. Queen. As It Began. London: Sidgwick & Jackson, 1992, p. 84. Template:ISBN</ref> The Winnipeg Free Press commended "Brian May's multi-tracked guitar, Freddie Mercury's stunning vocalising and Roy Thomas Baker's dynamic production work", calling the album "a no-holds barred, full-scale attack on the senses".<ref name="winnipeg">Winnipeg Free Press, 5 July 1975 (Queen Archives), Web.archive.org</ref> Circus referred to the album as "perhaps the heaviest, rockingest assault on these shores we've enjoyed in some time".<ref name="jm">{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> Rolling Stone awarded the album a positive rating of 3 stars and wrote: "If it's hard to love, it's hard not to admire: this band is skilled, after all, and it dares."<ref name="rs">Template:Cite magazine</ref> John Mendelsohn, however, was unimpressed, writing: "I hunted all over both sides of this latest album for something, anything, even remotely as magnificent as 'Keep Yourself Alive' or 'Father to Son', only to end up empty-eared and bawling."<ref name="jm" /> As 1974 drew to a close, the album was ranked by Disc as the third best of the year<ref>Disc, end-of-year list, December 1974</ref> and tied for 24th place on NME's end-of-year list.<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref>
In a review for the Chicago Tribune, Greg Kot awards the album a generally positive rating of 2 and a half stars, while noting that this album was where "...the songs became more concise"<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref>
In a retrospective review, AllMusic said that "the theatricality is now wielded on everyday affairs, which ironically makes them sound larger than life. And this sense of scale, combined with the heavy guitars, pop hooks, and theatrical style, marks the true unveiling of Queen, making Sheer Heart Attack as Template:Sic the moment where they truly came into their own."<ref name="allmusic" /> Q called the record "indispensable" and "one of the great pop/rock admixtures of the '70s".<ref name="CD" /> Pitchfork wrote: "Sheer Heart Attack not only improves on every aspect of their sound suggested by the first two records, but delivers some of the finest music of their career ... this is the band at the height of its powers."<ref name="pitchfork" /> Jon Bryan of Backseat Mafia described it as "the first album where Queen got it unarguably right", noting that "such obvious arrogance suited them".<ref name="Backseat"/>
Benjamin Ray of the Daily Vault felt that "Queen somehow manages to sound like every rock band of the 70s on here, including Rush, Zeppelin and even Uriah Heep." However, he noted the difference was that "Queen actually tries to be pretentious and bombastic, and often they are so over the top one can't help but be entertained", finally concluding that it was "their most fun and showcases everything they did right."<ref name="queenarchives" /> The BBC wrote: "they stretched contemporary production methods to their very limit with multi-layered vocals and guitars and Freddie's vaudevillian streak finally emerged ... this was the album that finally saw Queen find their true voice."<ref name="bbc">{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> Rock historian Paul Fowles wrote that Sheer Heart Attack "saw the band become increasingly focused on the emerging cult figure of Mercury" and his "unique brand of rock theater", especially on the single "Killer Queen".<ref>Template:Cite book</ref>

2011 reissueEdit
On 8 November 2010, record company Universal Music announced that a remastered and expanded reissue of the album would be released in May 2011, as part of a new deal between Queen and Universal Music, which meant the band's association with EMI Records would come to an end after almost 40 years. Queen's entire studio catalogue was reissued in 2011.
