Queen: Sheer Heart Attack LTD version on CD in limited Remastered edition. This particular edition was published in Japan in publishing company Universal Music in cooperation with Island Records on 12. December 2018.

Queen's musical evolution from their debut to their third album Sheer Heart Attack is remarkable. There is only 1.5 years between releases and Brian May was temporarily absent due to illness during the recording process. And yet: Sheer Heart Attack is the album on which Queen found their own sound. The single Killer Queen, written by Freddy Mercury, was a huge success. But the other three members of the band also appear as songwriters here, making the album an event with their heavy guitars, pop hooks and their theatrical style. UHQCD stands for Ultimate High Quality Compact Disc and is a joint development between Japanese CD replication company Memory-Tech and Hong Kong's Audio Quality CD Company. Unlike conventional CDs, UHQCDs are not pressed from polycarbonate, but cast from photopolymer and cured with UV light. To protect the softer photopolymer from scratches, an additional layer of high-purity polycarbonate is applied. The result of this combination is a significant reduction in laser light reflection inside the CD and an unparalleled accurate edge transition between the pits and the CD soils. UHQCDs are 100% compatible with conventional CD players. Musically, the result is a sound image strongly reminiscent of analog master tapes. In addition, the discs offered by Universal Japan are encoded with MQA (Master Quality Authenticated) technology. By outputting a digital signal from the digital output of a CD player or a previously ripped data stream from a music server to the appropriate MQA-DA converter, you can generate a 24-bit signal from CD data with a sampling rate of up to 352 Khz. The current UHQCD series is based on the DSD data of single-layer SHM SACDs released by Universal Music Japan in previous years. This makes UHQCDs ideal for music lovers who want to get as close to the sound of a recording as possible but do not own a SACD player.

Album spans genres Rock, Progressive rock, Hard Rock and Classic Rock.
