Beyond The Valley... is the seventh full-length album released in 2000 by pop-punk band The Queers and the second album released on Hopeless Records.
Stewart Mason of Allmusic called the album "one of the odder entries in the Queers' extensive catalog," stating that it is "much darker and less overtly funny album than almost anything the band has ever done."[3] Pitchfork Media writer Michael Sandlin criticized the juvenile quality of the songs, but conceded that the songs are "more cute and melodic than you might expect" and have "some tasty, ass-kicking lead guitar parts . . . the kind that are quickly becoming extinct in modern rock."
