Band Name Origins:

Their EP, featuring Queen of the Reich was released and it took off, so the band, pressed for time, had to decide on a name. Queensryche was created from the song title, and the name has stuck ever since. Contrary to a comment elsewhere on amiright.com, it has nothing to do with a gay dictatorship. Submitted by: Stu Cazzo
