Digital Noise Alliance is the sixteenth studio album by American heavy metal band Queensrÿche. It was released on October 7, 2022, through Century Media.

Background
editIn July 2021, Parker Lundgren announced he had left the band to pursue "other business ventures". Mike Stone filled in for the subsequent tour, and later rejoined as a full-time member.[1]
In January 2022, Queensrÿche confirmed they had entered the studio with Zeuss reprising his role as producer, and begun recording their sixteenth studio album, with a tentative late-2022 release date. Grillo confirmed that he was going to play drums on the album.[2] On May 20, 2022, the band announced that the album was titled Digital Noise Alliance and that it will be released on October 7.[3] The album was received well in Europe, reaching the Top 20 in Germany and Switzerland as well as the Top 40 in the Netherlands. In the US, however, it became their first album to miss the charts entirely.[citation needed]
