Queen - News of the World [150G]

Queen's 1977 release News Of The World, released in the midst of punk rock's ascent, solidified the band's position as '70s rock royalty while expanding upon their artistic vision with an eclectic collection of songs. Although the album is famous for its anthemic "We Will Rock You/We Are the Champions" opening medley, it also features the Roger Taylor-sung "Sheer Heart Attack" which is as close as Queen ever came to punk as well as the provocatively sensual "Get Down, Make Love." "I think that's when we established ourselves as a rock anthem band," Brian May said years later. "We should have done an album called Anthems really."
