Sheer Heart Attack is the third studio album by English Glam Rock band Queen, released through EMI in the United Kingdom and Elektra Records in the United States on 8 November 1974. While on tour for Queen II as a supporting act for Mott the Hoople, Brian May had fallen ill with hepatitis, forcing an early end to the tour. Back home, the band would write a significant chunk of the songs that would end up on this album, with this new glut of material instigating a shift away from both the pure Hard Rock sound of the band's debut album and the Progressive Rock of their second one. Instead, their new approach would feature a mix of more conventional, radio-friendly song structures and Genre Roulette-style experimentation that marked the first vestiges of the band's Signature Style.Sheer Heart Attack was supported by two singles: "Killer Queen"— which reached as high as No. 2 in the UK charts, and was their first top 20 hit in the United States, acting as their mainstream Breakthrough Hit in both territories— and "Now I'm Here".TracklistSide One"Brighton Rock" (5:08)"Killer Queen" (3:01)"Tenement Funster" (2:48)"Flick of the Wrist" (3:19)"Lily of the Valley" (1:43)"Now I'm Here" (4:10)Side Two"In the Lap of the Gods" (3:20)"Stone Cold Crazy" (2:12)"Dear Friends" (1:07)"Misfire" (1:50)"Bring Back That Leroy Brown" (2:13)"She Makes Me (Stormtrooper in Stilettos)" (4:08)"In the Lap of the Gods... Revisited" (3:42)Principal members John Deacon: bass guitar, guitars, double bass Brian May: guitars, backing vocals, lead vocal ("She Makes Me (Stormtrooper in Stilettos)"), banjolele Freddie Mercury: lead vocals (except "Tenement Funster" and "Dear Friends"), backing vocals, keyboards Roger Taylor: drums, backing vocals, percussion, lead vocals ("Tenement Funster") | |

Face on the Cover: Like their second album, this one has a Mick Rock photo of the four band members on the cover, accompanied only by the band name and album title. It's not quite as iconic as the Queen II cover, but it's still pretty recognisable. | |

New Sound Album | |
| Sheer Heart Attack (Music) / int_22093e9b | comment |
New Sound Album: This album sees the band moving (somewhat) away from the Progressive Rock sound of their first two albums and more towards a more straightforward Glam Rock/Hard Rock sound. The fantasy themes that had dominated the lyrics of their first two albums are also less prevalent here, although they still do show up on some songs ("In the Lap of the Gods", "Lily of the Valley"). This is given away even by the album cover, which depicts the band "wasted and abandoned" compared to the classier-looking covers of the first two records. | |

Gratuitous Panning | |
| Sheer Heart Attack (Music) / int_5e835a41 | comment |
Gratuitous Panning: Done with Freddie's self-duetting vocals on "Brighton Rock" and "Now I'm Here", which jump between the left and right channels to give the impression of him duetting with himself. "Flick of the Wrist" gives an unusual spin to this trope. The line "a dig in the ribs" is processed so that it sounds like it's playing from both sides of the mix, as if two people were singing directly into each of the listener's ears (an effect which is more pronounced through headphones), rather than from the center. "Lap of the Gods" combines this with a fade-out, fade-in effect to give the illusion of the band doing a lap around the room in the span of a few seconds during the Incredibly Long Note. | |

"The Reason You Suck" Speech | |
| Sheer Heart Attack (Music) / int_7d89315b | comment |
"The Reason You Suck" Speech: "Flick of the Wrist" was described by Freddie Mercury as "a sort of tongue-in-cheek story about the con-men and rip-off artists we're always running into." The song is believed to be directed at the band's former manager (also the subject of "Death on Two Legs" from the next album), whom Mercury also described as "a motherfucker of a gentleman"; however, in the case of "Flick of the Wrist", Mercury never confirmed whether the song was based on anyone in particular, and in fact denied rumors that it was about their manager. | |

Beam Me Up, Scotty!: In-Universe. Marie Antoinette almost certainly didn't say "Let them eat cake" ("And not just because she spoke French!"), as she is quoted as saying in "Killer Queen"; she would have been literally nine years old when the phrase was first attested, and would in fact have been horrified by the sentiment, as she was deeply involved with charity work for the poor, giving more of her income to feed the poor than the rest of the French royal family combined. The attribution has stuck to her anyway. | |

The outro to "Now I'm Here" quotes "Little Queenie" by Chuck Berry. "Bring Back That Leroy Brown" is a homage to Jim Croce, who had died the previous year. The title and lyrics additionally reference Croce's "Bad Bad Leroy Brown". | |

| Sheer Heart Attack (Music) / int_d4bb4e51 | comment |
Walking Shirtless Scene: Half of the band members appear shirtless on the album cover. They were also covered in Vaseline and had had cold water thrown on them shortly before the shoot, because, according to photographer Mick Rock, they wanted to look "wasted and abandoned, like we've been marooned on a desert island," as a direct contrast to the more bohemian photo for Queen II. Brian May commented, "it was agony, this session, but it was worth it. I think we wanted to explode our own myth. We didn't want to be pretty any more." | |

No Ending | |
| Sheer Heart Attack (Music) / int_ea2e9f2d | comment |
No Ending: To an extent, "Tenement Funster". The song builds up to something akin to a Grand Finale near the end, but when it actually happens, the song technically just segues into "Flick of the Wrist". Even on most versions of Queen's First EP (which also has the song), the song fades out during the transition without a proper ending. Of course, many people argue that the song's ending can be heard beneath said transition, but it's still jarring nonetheless. A proper ending of sorts does occur in a 1974 BBC Radio performance included on the 2011 remaster's bonus EP, if only out of necessity (as BBC sessions were typically played live in the radio booth). | |

Product Placement: An accidental one. "Killer Queen" opens with the line "she keeps Moët & Chandon in her pretty cabinet", which was a mere comment on how classy the fictional girl was. The winery benefited when the song became a big hit, and as a reward, they sent the band and producer vats of champagne as well as passes for Wimbledon and Grand Prix. | |
