After slugging it out on the Southeastern club circuit for 2 years McQueen Street signed a major recording contract with SBK/EMI records in 1990 and released their self-titled debut, "McQueen Street" in 1991.

The song "My Religion" was first released to rock radio and spent 6 weeks as the reigning champion of MTV's Headbangers's Ball. "In Heaven" the band's most successful song at mainstream radio reached #32 on Billboard Magazine's album rock chart on January 4, 1992. In addition the band appeared on the cover of such popular magazines as Metal Edge, Hit Parader and Billboard. After an excruciating year of touring in support of their debut album and performing with such artists as Alice In Chains and Soundgarden the band decided to take a year off to work on new material. During late 1993 McQueen Street parted ways with its record label and due to increased frustration with the state of music at the time, and ultimately decided to call it quits.
