They are all good in their own way and all incredibly different. Start with Songs For The Deaf and work backwards. Then once you have Rated R and Self-Titled buy Lullabies To Paralyze.
“Hello, babies. Welcome to Earth. It’s hot in the summer and cold in the winter. It’s round and wet and crowded. At the outside, babies, you’ve got about a hundred years here. There’s only one rule that I know of, babies — ‘God damn it, you’ve got to be kind.’” - Kurt Vonnegut
It depends. If you like the way nick oliveri fucking SCREAMS into the mic, then you'd like Songs for the Deaf. If you like a lot, lot, lot of bass, then the S/T is right up your alley. Otherwise, Rated R would be your best pick.
Don't buy Lullabies to Paralyze unless you're a true QotSA freak. There's only 3 good songs: "Someone's in the Wolf", "The Blood is Love", and "Tangled Up in Plaid". It's simply not worth the money. Buy Wolf, Blood, and Tangled on iTunes, then leave the rest alone.
Man, the Blood is Love might be the worst song they've ever recorded. I might actually stand to listen to Lullabies to Paralyze all the way through if that 7 minutes of garbage wasn't on there. Broken Box and "You've Got A Killer Scene There, Man" are WAY better.

Whoever was slagging off Lullabies to paralyze is wrong godammit! I consider it the worst queens album so far but thats only because the others are so damn good. Songs such as "someone's in the wolf", "tangled up in a plaid", "broken box", "everybody knows your insane", "medication", "burn the witch" and "in my head" fuckin own. The thing i love most about qotsa is that every album they make is different rather than just making the same stuff over and over again. Ltp is very different to the albums before it but its still an awesome album.

Interesting. It's decent. The guitar solos are very "The Cars"-sounding.
Decent? That bitch blew my face into another dimension. Hell yes. My faith in the Queens has been restored.
Definetly the first one...it´s a band to see their evolution because all their albums are great...so, begin from the beginning
Chris Goss produced Era Vulgaris. You know it'll deliver the goods.
If you like bass, start with the first.
