It's not, because not all musicians care about commercial success. "Commercial" is a useful verb because it points to a number of populist stylistic cliches and production choices. I don't see how someone can refute this without repeating the "hipster hipstirn hispter hipster" mantra.

"Empire: commercial hard rock". Describing any kind of music with the word "commercial" is very redundant.

I just love the eerie, mysterious soundscape of the debut album! I find it similarly haunting to, say, Keeper I by Helloween, Dreamspace by Stratovarius, Fire of Unknown Origin by BÖC, some Grave Digger albums, and nearly anything older from Mercyful Fate/King Diamond... I love when they get this certain darkness out of the speakers if it suits the themes of the album! That said, I don't know if any newer album has this darker sound to it. I bet it's all just impersonal loudness war now. :/

Ultimately, album choices (old, new etc.) are only a matter of taste. Every album reflects the state of mind 'Ryche members had in each era. They never wanted to repeat themselves obviously.... E.g. - EP/The Warning=power metal gems. RFO = Sci-Fi prog, O:M = prog metal milestone, Empire : commercial hard rock, Promised Land : introverted melodic prog, HINTF = alternative rock, Q2K=hard rock..always progressing & changing. True, most 00's QR LP's lack a bit of character, but inspiration is hard to find in every release, especially for 50-yr+ old dudes. Give'em a break folks.. no one forces you to dig the new DtC, you can always ditch that and wait for a new LP :S :D

V Clean and good sounds tend to make an album more generic in my opinion. See any metal album today. No personal soundscape anymore, everything's too clear, heavy, perfect, compressed. Riight... I'm not listening to Promised Land anytime soon though as I have so much to enjoy in their previous godlike works for the rest of my life!

I prefer their earlier stuff and American Soldier over Promised Land but it's still great and far from their worst.

Operation: Mindcrime is the(ir) best album ever. [2] I'll never even listen to post-Empire or Promised Land era albums. I hear some people who generally like "good music" :P really like Promised Land though... Maybe I should give it a listen some time, possibly when I get the urge to listen to 90s-2010s Scorpions ballads! :D
