| 3.0 good | judasgoat | September 18th 15 | For the first time since 2009, Geoff Tate has released an album that is not a complete embarrassment. That in and of itself is worth celebrating.

| 3.5 great | laralan1977 | October 7th 15 | Gosh! Stop complaining, Geoff's Queensryche days are gone. Get over it, put that to rest for 45 minutes and listen to this great album objectively!

| 3.0 good | Trey STAFF | September 12th 15 | When Geoff Tate took on the name Operation: Mindcrime and started spouting off about a prog rock trilogy that would allow him to break new musical ground, I just rolled my eyes. It turns out, though, that he was pretty much able to pull it off. rThe story itself isn't nearly as compelling as either Mindcrime album, but the album is still pretty damn good. Despite the band name, it turns out that The Key isn't rtrying to cash in on Mindcrime's sound and direction. What we get with The Key is a chill, atmospheric, prog rock album that should appeal to fans content with rthe mellower side of bands such as Riverside, Porcupine Tree and, yes, even Queensryche.
