"Sheer Heart Attack" is an incredibly varied piece Queen. With `Brighton Rock ',` Now I`m here` and `Stone Cold crazy` are directly three tough rockers at the start. `Brighton Rock 'and` Now I`m here` were subsequently also spent many years in the live set of the group. `Stone Cold crazy` was covered by Metallica. `In the lap of the gods` and` In the lap of the Gods revisited` are very bombastic pieces with choirs and even local vending. `` Dear friends` and Lily of the valley` are against very short and quiet pieces. `Killer was queen`, as already written, the first big hit of the group. Even the sound of the record was very good for its time.
With "II", "A Night At The Opera" and "News of the World" "Sheer Heart Attack" is for me one of the best albums of the group. It is very, very varied and all musical areas of Queen can be heard here. Therefore deserved 5 stars for "Sheer Heart Attack". The eponymous song is the way to find only on the "News of the World".
