The controversial Hot Space is Queen’s actual venture into disco, the use of electronic drums and the coming change of 80s sound. It’s not as terrible as people make it out to be, it’s no Sheer Heart Attack, but it’s alright. Notable tracks include “Under Pressure ft. David Bowie”, “Cool Cat” and “Las Palabras De Amor”
