Geoff Tate Unveils 'Operation: Mindcrime III' With May 3 Release and First Single 'Power' This Week

Tate is releasing the finale independently to control its presentation.

Overview

  • Tate revealed the full track list, opened preorders on his official site, set a May 3 release date, and slated the first single, Power, for March 20.
  • The new chapter reframes the saga from Dr. X’s point of view and unfolds in the same timeframe as the original album.
  • Disturbed bassist John Moyer produced the record, with Tate describing a heavier, modern sound and a punchy rhythm section.
  • Guitarist Kieran Robertson makes his first studio appearance with Tate and co-wrote many songs after years touring the original album.
  • Tate is handling distribution and promotion without a label, citing creative control and past problems with record companies.
